A Mugo Restyle from my original Videos a year ago

[Vance Wood]

A year or so ago I started posing videos of some of my trees one of them was this upright Mugo Pine that, as I pointed out, was in need of a restyle. I did not get to it till this fall. I started recording the videos and this is the first.

Sometimes I think I am wasting my time. I feel like the pastor in Blazing Saddles, thinking this is an exercise in futility.

Im watching. just got in. Keep 'em coming! I'd be happy as a pig in sh!t with a tree like that. Preach it pastor!

 

[Vance Wood]

Thank You for the feed back. I am becoming alarmed that I am flooding the site with too much stuff and it's not like people demonstrate the interest they did a year or so ago. You can post stuff like this on FaceBook but that disappears faster than a tax rebate.

a tax rebate.

What's that?

 

[PierreR]

Thats the bait governments strings you along with to make you feel like they used a lubricant when they bent you over your favorite stump, all the while giggling and making faces at you when your not looking... figuring new ways to get you to give them more of the money, they let you think is yours.

And this is the milder, gentler Canadian version, eh?

They might not be getting tons of views at the moment, but it's a great refrence down the road for anyone with a mugo. They'll be viewed and appreciated many times over

Yes sir! I keep my real opinions bottled up deep inside, and feed 'em prime rib and Guinness. Or moose and rum, depends which opinion needs nourishing!

Vance, your the Lewis Black of bonsai.

If you'd put it in the pines forum, people could find it back later on too

 

[Vance Wood]

From my experience if I had put it in the Pines forum people might not have found them the first time around. As to finding them the next time; there is always the search engine on this site.

Thanks Vance for the video. It's nice to see some theoratical info combined with visual demonstration.

 

[Vance Wood]

Can you define what you mean as to theoretical (theoratical?) info? I am intrigued. I am not taking a jab at a potential typo but I can understand the play on words if that is so. Either way I am intrigued as I said.

Sorry, I may have put this strangely since english is not my first language. I was referring to explanations of different concepts and showing it on your tree. Developing tree as much as one can in 360°, taking a branch and lowering it to compensate a branch that is not growing from the trunk where you would want it, etc.

 

[Vance Wood]

I think you do fine with the language, better than some I know that were born to it. Thanks for taking the time to clarify what you were referring to. I find that encouraging.

 

[Vance Wood]

What's that?

Actually that's what the government gives you back from the money they took from you in the first place.

 

[klosi]

No problem, thank you for making these videos. I hope there will be many more.

 

[Vance Wood]

That is my intention but I am having a problem with the soft ware. It will produce a video that I can edit but when I save the video the software saves it into a format that it (the soft ware) cannot even recognize. When I tell it to save in MPEG or MP4 as instructed it saves in it's own format. Go figure that one out.

 

[Brian Van Fleet]

Hmmm....from my perspective, the undisciplined, bloated, gluttonous hog that is our government has never pushed away from the slop trough, snorting that it's had enough, let alone regurgitate any portion of it.
