How are the mounts doing? Have they attached themselves yet?

The four along the base and the one at the top are attached. The others are actually other small mounts that I hang on the main piece. That's how I'm able to make the changes

I made another adjustment this afternoon but didn't take a pic yet.

Sue, speaking of, are there any updates. I have always thought about getting a gnarled tree trunk or branch, thick enough and tall enough to be able to mount a few large orchids and Tillandsias onto it. And I would have one of Marty's automatic misting machines misting them from time to time during the day. How are those roots coming along Sue?

I hate to be the one who ask this, but do you have any problems with the salt in the logs?

I'll have to take some update pics
It's looking great!

Juan, this project has been going for quite a while and have not had any problems at all.
