I was searching YouTube and came across the title "THE 'Ugly Tree' Becomes Beautiful Bonsai" (not sure if this has been posted before) but I just had to see what this was about.

...Let's just say the transformation of this tree is awesome! ...check it out!

Graham seems very skilled at taking unassuming material and giving it new life. His other videos are also good.

So now it's a sellable bonsai. Anybody have an idea what something like that is worth? I'd think that it would be worth more simply because of Graham's touch?

Really? Do you have any photos? I suppose this is a good time of year to ship and receive a new tree

No harbor frieght ?:eek:

All they have to do is send me a 20% coupon and I'm there .
Or free screw drivers
Or another flashlight

I don't think I could be any more creative than that.

I need to come up with an end all for the HF argument.

I can tighten a bolt with my hand better than their 1/2 impact driver.

Like my knuckles more than I'd care to use a crescent wrench from there.

Pretty sure I broke a band saw that was purchased there.

Care to get work done right, or at all.

You can't even buy a good tool at home depot nowadays, Let alone there.

None of those are the end all, but true.

This is one of the only arguments I care to have!

I love the way the white corpuscles have begun the coagulating around the wound. Awesomeness!

Seriously Adam, if I had part of a cutoff wheel stuck in my face or a gaping wound screwing with my tat, I'd be screaming like a girl. I certainly wouldn't think to stop a take a photo of it! You're crazy dude! ;)
