Thread graft Seiju Elm?

[dbonsaiw]

Just wanted to confirm whether it is possible to thread graft on a seiju elm. I need to thicken up the lower trunk on one and wasn't sure if the cork bark would interfere with a thread graft.

I suspect you've gotten no response because no one has actually done a thread graft on a seiju. No reason I can think of that it wouldn't work. But on mine, they throw out so many buds all over the tree that I could select one or two to let grow and get the job done. No need to graft.
