What!?!? You didn't get on the acoustic guitar forum to get unsolicited life advice from a guy you've never met ? You are mad

I've heard it explained here that branches are a NO GO for structural building in guitars because there is significant difference in growth ring density/structure in the upper side vs lower side of branch (think compression wood from supporting weight of tree or branch), and this makes for wood that reacts strongly to humidity changes, among other reasons I've forgotten = very unstable.
