[QUOTE="djgra79, post: 101109, member: 1447"] Hi Jay. 1in spacing is quite dense for a megatree, but should look pretty good for images and text type effects. Being 5v isn't a bad thing, particularly because all the nodes will be close together and close to the power supply (I assume) Being against a fence there's definitely no use being any more than 180deg should you go for that. At least with a curve it looks a bit more like a tree, but flat ones look just as good. Creating an extension to an existing post I think will be asking for trouble. One big gust of wind and I bet I know where it will break - at the join of existing post. Not sure what type of materials you're looking to use but I'm using square galv steel. Here's a fairly detailed write up which may help inspire your build: [URL]https://auschristmaslighting.com/threads/crjajess-mega-tree-guide.5440/[/URL] [/QUOTE]

The title of our introductory lighting manual contains a three digit number. What is that number? Clue: Display basics forum
