I have just 8 of these extra large, extra heavy duty Masakuni Turntables available.

To be fair to everyone I will take orders for copper wire and turntables but I can only hold them till 11am unless paid for on the morning or BPay in advance as they are pretty popular.

Cheers,

Grant

The pines I am bringing are all now in Bonsai pots and highly worked over the last two years; no longer the basic stock they were. I don't have any pine nursery stock for sale.

Here is some general advice.

If you see a pot that is a bit unusual and you like it; BUY IT. Otherwise you will never see that pot again, the potter will die; an earthquake will destroy all stock of that pot and you will be left with a broken bonsai spirit lamenting the time you saw that perfect pot and you failed to buy it. GUARANTEED.

Same goes with nursery stock. Wishing for the same stock you saw 2 years ago isn't going to produce results.

This weekend is the perfect time to buy material from a range of sellers so take advantage of it.
