Happy Cadaver Posted September 5, 2005 This is a little tool i've found works really well for those who want to do heaps of grafting. It's basically a four legged stool made out of bonsai wire, gaffer tape and cloth. The bonsai wire is really bendy so it's easy to adjust to the different sized stocks, etc. you have. It makes it so much easier to put the rubber bands on a graft, i got sick of them slipping off and flicking the scion a mile away Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dracos6 Posted September 6, 2005 ive never done any grafting so i cant speak from experience, gonna start soon now that its warming up tho. i read somewhere that a good method was to get the foot from some pantyhose and put this over it as the spikes on the stock will hold it there and it will still let some light through, sounds good in theory, anyone tried this method?
