Tonight is a good night for working on trees. Full moon, nice and quiet with 0 distractions. See you in the wee hours :cool:

Yep. I wish I was a vampire in some respects. Think about it, eternal life etc, etc, think of how awesome your bonsai collection would be? :lol:

Yeah, you do a lot of carving with your teeth and you'd be out half the night looking for a snack :(

I am surprised at how many of these posts are made at 2 and 3 am, get some sleep :roll:
