I was looking in the archives to find some guidance about the use of cut
paste. I just finished a trunk chop and decided not to use any paste or
sealer. After reading the archives I am confused. There seem to be
contradictory schools of thought. Can anyone offer any help? My mind is
going in circles (seems to be doing that more and more).

Sure. Bonsai is an aesthetic endeavor. Using cut paste gives you the best
chance of a wound healing properly (read: visually pleasing) and not using
cut pasted is almost always a bad idea (read: ultimately visually not
pleasing). Use cut paste on all cuts larger than a pea. No confusion
necessary. ;-)
