Well done Barry on some great workmanship to have achieved such a great outcome. When are you going to bring it to the club and show us in the flesh? You also were great with the tools.

No sign of wire cutting in, so I will leave for a little longer .

Hi Barry,

It looks very healthy and more mature than in the last pics as well. I hope you are very happy with it. I am :aussie:

I never got tired looking at your tree. I just did mine http://ausbonsai.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=131&t=8610

I did look at yours several times before I did mine.

Best regards.
