Thanks for sharing this. Your thumbnails for the first yew did not come through for the before and after. The second yew did. I am curious as to what the demonstrator was getting at with this tree. Did he explane a plan, or did he just keep cutting until he had to stop somewhere? No insult intended but unless he has something in mind I am surprised that was the best he could get out of this tree.

Very nice demo, either one of those trees alone would be an ambitious undertaking for a demo. Thanks for posting! Regards, Matt

Ted did a demo at the San Diego club last meeting, and he was a wonderful, inspirational speaker. His insights and his enthusiasm made it one of the most enjoyable demos I have seen. He did a sumo liquidamber.
Chop chop chop cut prune chop yep gonna have to go chop prune chop cut yep a little more cut cut cut....snip..... Took a really good sized tree and made it...well....about six inches tall.  Loved it! Joanie |

First Yew, Lots and lots of dead wood. Everything except for the live vien going up the side will be carved. He said it will look like a 2000 year old tree that has gone through everything, and something caused the top to die off. Second Yew, He did not go a whole lot into the destination desired with this tree, just many many many many years of refinement ahead. A rough out line is all there is now. Hope this helps, -Paul
