John, I can do better than just a picture for you! Here's a link to the video I used to make the cloner. Sure To Grow gave me permission to repost their video on my site. =)

I tried a more expensive cloner too, but I found that this homemade one with the STG clippers was superior in performance. Sometimes the more expensive choice really is not the best one!

Teri, your clem definitely looks like it is sick... and not just a lighting issue. The tip dieback below the leaves has me worried. I'm researching a little more for you before I give my "diagnosis" and suggested treatment. When you've cut back the affected areas, does the clem send up a new shoot or does it continue to grow on the affected one?
