Wow - in my parts bin (which doesn't have my 5938s sorted out yet), I have
73 bases (which implies 73 trees). I have one of those blue cases with 2
16x32 baseplates as covers as my palm tree parts box. One of the 6
compartments is almost full of trunk segments. One side (3 compartments w/o
separators) is about half full of small palm leaves, the last two
compartments (no separator) is a little more than half full of large leaves.
The bases and leaf forks are in zipper lock bags resting on top).
Of course my castle box has a huge collection of forester style tree parts
(a gallon bag full of brown castle wall corners, another about half full of
5x7 leaves, this all just grew since I sorted 5 6079's last night - thanks
Bruce for two of those).
I do need to pick up more of the spherical and conical trees (and I've got a
whopping ONE of the tall tapered trees).
