Wow Ken, great result! You must be pleased. I really like the overall shape of the tree. Have you formulated a plan of attack for the upper branch yet?

Cheers,
Pearcy.

Yes very happy, and re the branch, Nope! :palm:
I think I am going to leave as is and hopefully it will be hidden by foliage. Those that see are looking to closely :-) :lol:
If I take it off then it will make quite a large hole tha will take a few years to fill. Maybe in a few years it might get a redesign up there and remove it then
