First thing we're going to do is get our hands on right away.

And I want you all to grab your pot and the wires that are at your station.

This is the important thing about wiring.

If you hold tight on your branch and you start cranking this around, look at the branch.

It's not moving.

I'm holding it really tight, and I can just crank all the way around.

All right, So I'll get it started, then I'll let you finish.

And again, we don't want to rip and shred the tree.

We want to anchor it to this right here.

So let's make it so we don't see the clip.

If we can.

Absolutely.

Just whatever.

Yeah, And we can cut that back off your pension.

You got a nice hold on that so you can feel it yourself.

You're going to pinch there and wrap with that because I'm pinching back here so we don't break it off there.

Now we want to make sure we're not going over any foliage in here to come down underneath.

There you go.

And find that next spot in between branches.

That's where the chopstick sometimes your fingers can get all that stuff out of there.

And again, we're gently trying to hug that tree without creating too much damage.

Sometimes you can actually put wire loosely around pine trees, just around like the foliage.

You know, in bonsai, everybody's always looking for beauty, right?

And so even though you're not going to put this tree in a show next month or next year, possibly most bonsai professionals and people in the craft will say, we'll do a nice job.
