ABSTRACT In a tool for pruning small trees and shrubs, it is known to comprise of a main vertical support, a horizontal arm, a vertical jig-mounting member and a set of main revolving jigs assembled with the use of sleeves, in such a way that it makes pruning a very simple operation for one person. In this invention, the main vertical support, horizontal arm and vertical jig-mounting member all serve as supports for the revolving jig used as a guide for the pruning operation. The jigs are of several shapes depending on the final product desired. The invention shows jigs of the following shapes: ball, bell, diamond, clover and bottle. SPECIFICATION This invention relates to a one-person operable jig for pruning small trees and/or shrubs to a desired shape by eliminating all guess work on the part of the pruner. In pruning trees and shrubs to specified shapes it is not known that any such previous tool has been utilized before. The pruning of trees is normally done by "eye-balling" which is not accurate or evenly done. This invention introduces a jig which is rotated at will that removes all the guess work that pruning entails and the result is an absolutely even and balanced pruned plant. In drawings which illustrate embodiments of the invention, Figure 1 is an elevation of assembled invention with closer views of cross-shaped sleeves 4 and simple sleeve 6. Figure 2 is an elevation view of the main revolving jigs: ball-shaped 7, bell-shaped 7a, diamond-shaped 7b, clover-shaped 7c and bottle-shaped 7d. The tool illustrated comprises of a ?" rod main vertical support 1 sharpened to a point at one end and with a piece of channel iron 2 welded it approximately one foot from the sharpened end.
