Styling a Trident

Post by Bonbon »

Styling is the most enjoyable part of practising Bonsai.
Stock trees are getting expensive, though.
This Trident cost $45 but provides only 20 mins fun. Very expensive indeed. :palm: :palm: :palm:
Any cheap stock tree available?
My dream job at the moment is to style stock trees and get paid.

Hi BonBon
yes, it only provide 20 mins of fun today. it will need you to play with it in a couple of weeks time, for the next 5-6 months. then repeat the process for the next.......well, depends on how much longer you have left, but say 40 years. so really, $45 is not much at all. ;)

Yep... Like he said! (Nice trident by the way :mrgreen: ) ... and dirt cheap when you look at it from a long term perspective...
