Mauro Stemberger has a  new video titled “The Bender (Scots Pine)” which has a plethora of great tips in it. There are great examples of using Rafia, Wiring, Deadwood, Pulleys and the use of a modern clamp such as you would buy at a large box store. The tree is huge and looks to be a six man tree to lift and carry. Overall its a very nice video to learn from. I have added the video to the following pages: Rafia, Wiring and Bending Techniques, Carving, Deadwood, Branch Bending all under Bonsai Basics. The video was added to the Pinus Sylvestris page, under Pine Bonsai, Conifer Bonsai and Bonsai Tree Information.
