Nice tree Ant, very nice. 
Sorry for speaking in riddles(it was late), your reply did answer my question!
However why leave the stubs? I guess that was more my question.

Lol,ok, at least I don't feel so stupid now! I thought I was missing the point, but you're just taking you're time with it. 
which is fair enough for this tree.

another 5 hrs of carving today. got the drills and spade drills out first to get the bulk of the wood out. then the dremel with my new termite bits, which are a gem to use. another session is still needed to get even finer detail but at least now i can relax and do it as i like.

last weekend i did a bit more carving and then some burning. it will need further refinement next winter but the tree has now started to open buds so today i had some spare time from work and decided to come home and do a repot on it. what i thought might take a couple of hours ended up a 4 hr. gig. heres a couple of pics with his pants down. tomorrow morning i'll get some in its training pot.

Looking really good Antonio......Do you want to free up your liquidity and sell it for the $1000 you paid for it recently
