The material a tree generates to cover a wound such as a limb pruned
flush with the trunk is called a callus. Ditto for the material that
would grow over a lag bolt.
From online encyclopedia ==> In botany, trunk (or bole) refers to the
main wooden axis of a tree.
Currently in process of getting 2-8 inches of rain preparatory to
Monday's ice storm. Intermittent lightning for over 24 hours
continues. Tornado sirens went off in nearest town but saw nothing.
Computer depiction of WX from NOAA shows us with no immediate life
threatening WX beyond lightning. Figures, I want to tilt a tower over
and install a rotator preparatory to installing a new antenna and I want
to trench in some more 4 inch PVC but my ride on trencher (looks like
back hoe on its own wheels instead of tractor mounted) strikes me as a
lightning magnet when the bucket is raised overhead.
Please excuse the "font dance" I don't know why T-Bird (my email client)
is acting up.

When researching attachments to trees, I found an old piece in QST
saying that a lag into a tree is about the least invasive method of
attachment.
