Welcome aboard dragon. You'll find that people here are quite patient and do not carry on with any aloof pretenses about being bonsai masters and looking down on those who are new to bonsai. You'll find some sites that are oriented that way, and at times look down upon this site for the way we carry things on here, but so be it.

You have to be kidding me Phil, there are plenty here that would pull you to pieces, if you did not stop them.

As for master's I have said the only place that has Masters is in Boarding schools.

You're absolutely right Pup. A puppy dog could shred me up and spit me out, but that's OK by me as long as they don't pick on the members of my, or perhaps better put, our, site.

HI

As another new boy on the block, I am pleased to have found this site. I ambased in the UK and have been growing bonsai for 20 years. Always learning.

Am currently designing a staging for my trees, has to fit in my small garden and not look naff.

Any help would be gratefully received.

Hi Liam, and welcome to the site. I think that perhaps the reason you've not received any responses to your question is that it's simply too general. If you could get a tad more specific I'm sure someone would jump in to try and help.
