Thank you to AusChristmasLighting for the absolute wealth of information available here, no way I could have gotten to this point without it! I must be reading posts here every day, and watching videos on youtube and always learning something new.

I was able to purchase the lights and controller/PSU's for the tree from @gerry which really helped get me started. He was awesome and had heaps of tips for me. I've since gotten a few more sets (used for the arches).

I think I've gotten a bug though, I seem to have ordered more lights and plan on doing the roof outline and a few other bits... including using the DC controller form Hanson electronics for some of my old lights. Family also suprised me with another controller (advatek long range) so I am set for quite some time with plenty of room to expand.

I used the Greatest Show sequence from djgra79 found here and edited it a bit of course :) Also used the oppurtunity to attempt editing the music over the recording (very poor camera work from me, sorry about that! enjoy the clothes line!)

Anyway, I'm just really excited and can't wait for the end of the year to see how it all comes together haha :)

WOW - nice mega tree and arches. My first year last year I didn't have either, just candy canes, window outline, icicles, 4 mini trees. You have given me inspiration for this year!! :thumbsup:

I got lucky that an ACL member was selling their tree otherwise I don't think I would have been able to have one. And what do you mean by 'Just..'! That sounds awesome! :) I don't have any mini trees, hmm, you might be giving me inspiration!
