Dust the top cut with rooting hormone. The bark should peel off fairly easily. This cut should connect bonsai tools the first two cuts. Make this about two branch widths below the first cut. Make a circular cut through the bark and into the hardwood underneath. Cut around the branch where you want roots to sprout. Select a branch with a pleasing shape and structure.
