Has anyone built his own conifers from natural products? I did it with moss and wood for dowels. It was a lot of work but the effect was it worth and one of the main advantages is, that you can produce your trees with an appropriate height My trees are between 6" and 12" high.

Thank you Andrew. I don`t know what kind of moss you have on Canada`s westcoast. I`ve found mine on a few places here in Switzerland. It`s rare but if I search a little bit in the forest, I`ll find it Stefan Railfan`s Homepage Railimages Gallery
Thank you Scott, it takes about 4-5 hours for each tree A lot of time but I didn`t find any commercial products that satisfied me and are reasonably priced Stefan Railfan`s Homepage Railimages Gallery
Jim, I taperded the dowels on a lathe and scratched lenghtwise with a fine saw blade for simulating the bark. After this, I brush painted the trunks with a light gray and weathered them with a wash of ink india and thinned roof brown. Stefan Railfan`s Homepage Railimages Gallery
