Obtaining bonsai tools and doing my first pruning
After reading several beginner's guides on the Internet, it was about time to get some tools and start working on the tree. The first attempt was with Dallas Bonsai Garden. Even though they responded relatively quickly, they never got back to me on how to send payment, and after several email sent to them I gave up. I managed to communicate much better with Omiya Bonsai in The Netherlands. I ordered a concave cutter and a twig cutter. I received my tools very promptly and thus confirmed that the Dutch are great people to do business with!
It was now time to get in business. I pruned quite a lot during the first pruning session, working on the lower branches first and mostly following my intuition. I had the idea that I want my tree to have the broom style...
The second pruning session involved the top branch of the tree, and after this the tree looked very small. Unfortunately the picture didn't come out nice and I cannot display that stage.

You forgot to mention who sponsored your first concave and twig cutter!
It was me, don´t go on denying it, this story is getting to be annoying so ...just say it: MY SISTER DID!
LOL. Sure! My sister did partially sponsor my bonsai tools at a time of financial need :)
Thank you, brother ; )
