Hi,
I have a promising pomegranate tree that I will begin work on come this spring. The nebari and trunk is great but there is some reverse taper with the upper branching. I will be growing and developing most of the branching from scratch but I'd like to leave some of the already present primary branching. In the photos you can 3 large branches coming from the same spot. The "middle" branch is actually a fused mass of 3 smaller branches that looks very unsightly especially since I aim for a more delicate image. I want to cut out the middle section (I'm not saying right now) but I'm not sure what tools to use. One option I have is to use a dremel and just carve the whole chunk out. But I'd rather use a saw of some sort to make a clean cut prior to any carving. Any comments, suggestions, or advice will be greatly appreciated.
Opinions regarding the trees development and final image will be nice too since I have no concrete plans yet of what to work towards. I'll get some photos in the day.
Thanks,
Julian
