Hi there Sean, great use of the material and judging by the update pics, clearly a very well looked after Shimpaku. I look forward to seeing what is next.
Cheers,

Thanks Mojo and Bodhi.
It's getting a good watering tonight along with my tools which I forgot were out.
I've learnt a lot more about how much these bend when the proper tools are applied. Having someone who knows what they are doing helps too
