You can do it the same way as a bonsi tree. Take some plastic wire wraps and pull it down without breaking it. Repeat this process every other week until you get it at the angle you want it.

I won't tell you what my wife said about your topic.

yeah, you can cut it.... just trim off the peices that you dont want, and then epoxy it to some LR or sell it!
