I stumbled on this link.. the photos are excellent (till you get to the end) and descriptions of what is being done is good.. It covers from reasons for grafting, planting seeds for rootstock.. all the way up to forcing the new bud... click the thumbnail pictures to get better look at pictures..

http://instruct1.cit.cornell.edu/courses/hort400/4tutos/tbuddi1.html

Just click the "continue T-Budding Exercise" at the bottom of the page..
Quote from first page..
"This slide set (29 slides) is intended to represent the rationale for and essential steps involved in T-budding as a means of propagating citrus in East Africa. The photographs were taken at the Njoro Tree Nursery, Njoro, Kenya and at the Kawanda Agricultural Research Station, Kampala, Uganda. "

Enjoy..

Gina, # 4 is where I took the quote from on my post of "How to T Bud" here. Yes, they used strips of bread bags there too. It does give good reasons why they T Bud!

In 1994 when I was in Belize the natives were cutting bread wrapper into budding strips.Buding tape was not available and they did not have funds to buy tape. Tape was given to the person that was helping me.
