I have been asked by a few eople how i built my megatree.
I used 3" abs plastic for the base and pole. I have 60 smart rgb nodes in the coro star on top.
I attached my 20 x 120 flex strips to 1/2" emt pipe. I drove a 3" oak dowel into each end of the emt. On the bottom i screwed eye bolts. On the top i screwed in eye hooks.
I recorded two videos describing the tree.
This week we had 50 mph winds and the tree didnt move at all. We will see if i get higher winds. For now, i am happy it all came out.
i like the fact that i can easily (less than 30 seconds) remove any segment from the tree if i have to repair any bad pixels.
Here are links to two videos
