You have learned your lessons well Grasshopper. Good eye and nice work.@Anthony Hello, Yes Hawthorn wood is quite soft actually and the dead wood will have ronseal wet rot wood hardener applied periodically, thus far ive only really carved into the already dead side/bits of the tree, i can see where the live veins are and have not touched them, i stopped carving into the heartwood where it began to show a whiter colour.
This Copper beech i acquired from a nursery in winter 2015
