First Carving on Collected Hawthorn Bonsai… With an Axe! 🪓🌳

The first major carving begins on this collected hawthorn bonsai — and yes… I’m using an axe for it. 🪓🌳 In this video I start opening up the deadwood and working the first rough carving into the trunk, setting the foundation for the future design of this hawthorn bonsai. Always a big moment taking that first cut into collected material, especially with a tree like this.
