Seriously, if you have a bring your own tree workshop, make sure that you have cleaned it up (removed old needles, leaves, dead branches (ones that won't be Jin), , have found the real neabari, have an idea of what you would like the tree to be. This will save lot's of time and will let Marco really work with you and the tree.
