Hi all,

I'm alittle stuck with what size star/topper to put on my 5mtr tall mega tree, its a 180 degree with 16 strands of 200 pixels. Any help is much appreciated or pictures of your similar size setup for inspiration would be awesome.

Cheers Adam

Sorry my tree is only 3m so hardly Mega, but if I was going to build one that large I would go for something around the 800-900mm mark.
Also depends on whether want something proportional or show stopper . Perhaps search the number of mega tree build threads in this forum
for pics and inspiration

That's a regular .9m 6-layer star on a 4m 180deg 32 strand tree (which will get a bit more tension and a straightening out for year 2, FWIW). So I agree with @Katekate that since you have a somewhat bigger tree, a somewhat bigger 1.2m star would be a good size.

Appreciate the input, I was thinking a star of atleast 900mm and did also look at the exact one that Kate posted the link for
