Cornus mass_Double trunk_Summer 2017 ( Part 2 from 3 )
In the course of the summer as my heart and nearly broken sole have recovered from the blow - see the previous post - I have started to circle around the tree closer and closer. Finally, it has landed on my workbench again and we have started the second round.
At the ring bell I have focused my effort on the upper dead branch. A place where I felt a soft spot on the tree. And yes, I do belive I have managed to remove a good amount of wood. Now I think there is a good movement and taper.
At least if you look at it under the condition of a deteriorated visibility and perhaps you are in a reasonable distance of more than 10 metres from it. Unfortunately, if you get any closer you will be able to see the naked truth - NO GO again.
Autumn 2017
Determination. Persistence. Innovation. All these characteristics helped our predecessors to get down from the trees and to conquer savannahs. With this in my mind, I have decided to continue with this project till the time I feel it is a GO.
So in late September I have wrapped the dead wood sections with the damped sphagnum moss and covered with the stretched foil. The plan now is to use a Dremel's wood burner to get some cracks on the "new" sections of the deadwood.
Let's have it soaked for a few days now...
