Anybody have experience doing this?
I can't imagine it's that hard and is probably similar with most maples, but with the thicker bark, is there any difficulties? I've tried searching online and here about how successful this is but not really coming up with much for the specific species.

I read some of your posts about your Shantung, have you come across anything about air layering these in your travels?
@Stickroot
I saw you were selling some earlier in the year, have you ever propagated from layers, do you have any tips?
This was a starter in a 6" pot that I bought from Meehan's last summer, repotted into a 2gal shortly after purchase and I'm probably going to repot soon into a squat 5gal. or 7gal.
As purchased:
And current:
Since this was a stick in a pot with the top chopped off, I now have two branches splitting off at the top that I would like to layer off and possibly try for a twin trunk:
I'm kind of on a twin trunk/multi trunk kick right now and would like to salvage the top while I get to work on the bottom half, and because I'm cheap...
