Question Trunk Chop question

Last winter I dug up a Japanese maple with a three inch trunk, did a trunk chop and put it in a large pot. Eight or ten branches budded out around the perimeter of the cut and the branches grew to about tree feet. The tree seems very healthy.

Problem - I realize I should have done the chop lower. The chop was done at 18 inches, I wish Ihad done it at 6". Can (and when) I do another chop at a more appropriate height?
