You make a repotting root rake by bending a screwdriver in a vise. Various pieces of old silverware can be used for soil, like spoons as little shovels, and forks for rakes. Clean razor blades or craft knives can be substituted for a grafting knife. They sell pliers and wire cutters in the hardward store that can be okay for bonsai use. The only thing that is absolutely necessary is a concave cutter. Whereas you can substituted for a lot of tools, there is no satisfactory replacement for a CC
