Massive Shimpaku Restoration

[Scriv]

Just uploaded a new video documenting the entire restoration process of this Juniper loaned to me by a local artist here in SoCal.

I took some notes from the community on how to improve the tutorial element of my videos... hope you guys find the information in here useful.

Considering how long this tree had been left to grow unchecked... this might have been the most challenging transformation on the channel thus far.

If you dig it, please make sure to like, comment and subscribe. It really helps the algorithm from burying the video.

Really appreciate you taking the time to watch!

It’s worth watching. Clear and succinct.

.lNewer folks will learn alot from this video as it’s easy to scale down juniper work.

Only comment I’d add is just a tad more explanation for these folks. Perhaps with some comments on wire selection and pathways.

Cheers

Thanks so much for the feedback. I tried making the tutorial accessible at all levels. Tough to thread that needle. I feel like the video could’ve been an hour if I’d broken down every step

I may do a strict wiring tutorial or beginner transformation series in the future, although there is a lot of that already out there on YT.

Very sorry, it’s the science teacher in me talking. The video is great overall. Just thought a couple simple additions on top of what’s there.

Certainly don’t have to do anything at all. Maybe for future use?

If you choose to do so this doesn’t need to be expensive. You’ve already lead into or commented on the topic in a couple cases in this video. Just expand enough to show wire choice, example of application, rationale of positioning s branch (and actual bending for 1-2 cases.

Very good work. Same with your previous videos

Are you self-taught? How did you learn your knowledge of ligature, styling, etc.?

Small request : I would like you to turn the tree 360° less quickly because I like to look, after a styling, if I would have chosen the same face or a variation. And when it's going fast, it's hard to freeze-frame
