Thanks Mark, KIRKY and KCAR.
KCAR, I wired it at an angle to the sloping trunk, just so that it won't end up looking the same as it was when I trunk chopped it. Movement in the trunk is my aim. The plan is to let it grow and thicken then trunk chop again, then take it back towards the right. Am I doing it wrong?
