  1. Nice to see this project again. It aged well, looks ancient, a very credible replica. 😊 Great work Nigel

  2. How much FUN to watch you make your latest creation for bonsai! What a FANTASTIC idea to make this temple for your bonsai project. LOVE how this project is looking with the top attached. Enjoyed seeing the plants you were assembling in the grow room in the interludes. Well done!!

  3. Boy it’s getting big!!!! I’m super excited to see this journey, I can’t help but wonder what tree you’ll end up picking for it!!

  4. Looks great Nigel. It can be a good idea to soak the concrete pieces in water for a few hours after they set to be sure there are no dry seams of concrete within.
    A very ambitious project. Well executed. Can't wait to see the finished product covered in aerial roots.

  5. Blimey Nigel – Brilliant. You've got so much patience and a modelling eye. Are you sure that the tables at the Toronto meeting are strong enough to support this structure and also the tree? 👍👍

  6. This was a magical moment,fitting those pieces together. That is quite an accomplishment. It's a lot of work,and you did a great job .
    It looks very real and beautifull. Thank you for sharing!

  7. Once again, great video Nigel! How can a single person be this creative when it comes to Bonsai? 🌳

  8. Yay! The Ta Prohm project is back on! Can't wait to see the final result and the planting of the ficuses on it.
    Thank you, Nigel!

  9. Take a look at cement glue, and fiberglass hair, might help with the structural aspect and with putting everything together lighter. Just a thought.

  10. Panda film 90% reflective, your plant room will be very bright. Keep those trees happy. I am glad you could use it.
