i think i'll try the rooting pots that Lee Valley sells on
one branch, & take some cuttings to try to scion onto my
apple. i'm even willing to buy a young apple tree if that
might take a graft easier.

Leaving suckers from rootstock much less the rest of the tree is bad
news for grapes. Instead of pushing through the graft (scion), the
rootstock will preferentially push native buds to the detriment of the
grafted stock. Seems to be the same thing with my dwarf peach trees. I
suggest you get rootstock to graft onto, if it isn't possible to grow it
on its' own roots.
