I noticed the poor quality of this timber and thought this picture summed up quite well the importance of tending to trees and cutting off double leaders.

Broadleaves too can be tended to by 'formative shaping' to improve the quality of timber.



Yes, I know I've got a bit of brashing to be doing!
