I’m doing a similar size tree this year. 32 strand/1” spacing about 23’ tall with star. How many holes (if any) did you leave between last pixel at the top and your j hooks at the topper?

Use a different base, Mattos had several options for the base on his site. Buried version might work best for slope. Or portable hole and cement the base at the angle you need.

I have a standard pixel belt without any existing hole. I require a hole to be made every 4 inches along the entire length of the belt. The pixel belt i need is quite extensive, ranging from 1000 to 2000 feet in length (100 feet each roll).

Hello again, just another question. Upgrading my Mattos Sasquatch mega tree. You think 48 sliding topper with 3ea. 66inch pole and with 8ft. hoops will hold exactly 100 pixel for ea strand ? jsut want to get an idea .I think you mention that on your video. ( 2inch pixel spacing )Thx again'
@FairyPixelDust
@FairyPixelDust 6 ай бұрын
I think so, as the 6’ base is just a little small for 100 pixels. The 8’ hoop will force the strips out further and should be fine. I actually just ordered the 18” add on extension to make mine taller, so that the 6’ hoop will work with 100’ next year. Good luck!

very nice video, easy to follow. If this is 16.5 ft tall how come it does not fit all 100 pixels. I thought this height was designed for 100 pixels or 200 inches.

I’m not sure, but he does now sell it with a 16” add on pole when you order one of the kits. That would make up the difference needed.

I want to use this design as I am new into lighting and exploring the type of tree that I would like to build. Some questions and complaints... 1) The camera shakes too much to focus on the topic of your narration. Also, the bungie balls.. you didn't get close enough to see how you attached/used them. The explanations were too fast, too short, without a demo to see exactly how to do that step. The strips were talked about" make sure to hook these up so link them together" however, you never focused on the end well enough to see how to start the string deployment. Where does the power come in form the controller? On the base, or does it start at the top of the tree? How did you patch in the star? Answers to these questions would make this video perfect! Thank for the parts that were done correctly and with great examples and explanations. The website to buy the kit is sold out of many parts.. are these tree kits still for sale..?

You have to buy these parts many months in advance - this is a project to start in the off season, not during the peak of holiday light season. I bought my kit in January 2023 and it was delivered in several shipments from July-September 2023. That’s the kind of timeline to expect.

Very helpful. I didn't find a 4x4 in my garage. Using your idea I put a notch in the end of a 1x6 that allowed me to get the wires of the pixels in. Working like a champ and the blister on my thumb from doing it by hand isn't getting any worse.

@FairyPixelDust Жыл бұрын
The steel frame is completely bolted together. The topper when winched up, is only held up by the winch, this allows you to raise and lower the topper easily on demand. I had some major wind storms come through one year and I was able to safely lower everything and reduce the risk of damaging the structure.
