Mr. H, you are a true artist. Great work on this fantastic specimen.

Thank you kindly

Great job as usual.
You could take some cuttings to ´tanuki-graft´ the branche in the back.

Great work not that much info on carving really good to see it done..

Thanks Rob 👍

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

That is a great first effort and has set it up nicely. Which tools are you using for the heavier carving. Ive got a little dremmel and nibbler but it really doesnt have the power to do the heavy wood carving.

[@houghtonbonsai]

Thank Xav, i use the nibblers in the die grinder for the heavy stuff and the dremmel for the other stuff got them from Bonsai Nibblers

[@XaviersBonsaiRetreat]

What's a die grinder - does it have a thicker shank?@@houghtonbonsai

[@houghtonbonsai]

@@XaviersBonsaiRetreat it has a thicker shaft and a lot more kick then a dremmel

[@NotAnotherBonsaiChannel]

A very nice carving job on this tre Ryan and a shame you severed the live vein at the back. All in all this tree looks the buisness and when those branches grow in, it'll look even better.

[@houghtonbonsai]

Thank you Gav, it turned out better then i thought m8 lol

[@AlexBraunton]

Awesome work Ryan. You've done a great job with this tree and I'm sure it'll win you more certificates and trophies one day.

[@houghtonbonsai]

Cheers Alex, maybe in a few years m8 lol
