Thanks for
inviting me to PSBA. It has always been a pleasure to be in a
beautiful city such as Seattle.
In the workshops
I noticed everybody's small wires were tangled and bent. I carry
my small wires by cutting them and putting them in PVC pipe.
This eliminates this problem.
This is a
Pinus contorta collected by Dan Robinson from Idaho. It is a
very interesting tree. I selected it because of the trunk movement
near the base.
Although
interesting, this is a totally "crazy" tree, and I
am trying to t figured out what to do with it at this time.
I start by
eliminating the long straight branches that I know I won't need
in the design of the tree.
I am making
a jin with my knob cutter because I might use it as an anchor
for my wire.
