Is this Pittosporum tobira usable?

[blauerds]

Hi! So basically I got this chopped down mess from a neighbor, and I was wondering if this is even usable as bonsai material.
Maybe cutting the trunk that is more up front which seems like an outlier in the shape idk. Is it possible to start a bonsai out of it? If so, what should I do?

Sorry for the beginner question. Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

Yep i think it is.

Couple of options depending on what size you want tit. Either carve ie now to develop interest and taper then start wiring etc once its grown more or let it grow more and develop the new growth to add interest/taper and have a bigger tree. (Or do a combo of both).

Pretty much any tree is usable for bonsai. This one is showing that it will bud on bare wood which is a plus because that means we can trunk chop to reduce height.

Whether this particular individual is useable will depend on what standard of bonsai you aspire to, how long you are prepared to spend in developing it and what's actually there.
It's a bit hard to assess a trunk and roots when we've only got 2 photos, both from above the trunk. I can't make out how the trunks flow into the root base or whether either trunk could be eliminated and still leave a relatively neat base or if both would look OK together from one side or another. Such decisions are much easier when we can actually see the trunk all round to see how all the elements flow in relation to each other or whether a change of trunk angle would work better.

Even if this one doesn't end up as a show winner, you will learn a lot by working with it. If you have the time and the space I'd say go for it.

Yeah my apologies for the awful pictures, I took more in case it helps to give advice.
As I said before, I’m very beginner so your guidance helps me a lot!!

Can now see how the 2 trunks join. Unfortunately you seem to have the worst options - trunk with best connection to the large base is the straight one. Trunk wit the bend is only connected? to the side of the large base.
Pics don't show how the side trunk is connected. It my be a second trunk growing from a root or beside the main trunk in which case you may be able to separate the 2 without much trauma. I don't see any great future for the tree with both trunks as they are so separation or remove 1 would be my first options. In the case of chopping one trunk I'd chop the one with the bend because it is growing from the side of that large, flared base.
After either chop or separate you'll need to wait for new branches before making further choices.
This is certainly a longer term - 3-10 year - project and there's no guarantees of a great bonsai at the end.
