Well done homer.. I was looking to do something similar but maybe might have decided to go a different way..


Still very cool!

Always a great feeling when you bring to life an element for your display. I bet you now feel more enthusiastic that you have got that under your belt.

Looks great Homer
Could you share with us some specs like the size and materials/lights used?

G'day thanks,

And a 90cm whites outdoor fan plant trainer from Bunnings. 2 Very small cable ties on each pixel.


Going to dismantle it and try make it look a bit taller as really doesn't look like a tree !!!


Cheers

I use the same type of planter frame for my mini trees.

Almost finished... Shame the pixels are too close to corflute but good enough I reckon.

Cheers for video,


just changed the lights to curve up like yours and looks 100% better.

Since I don't have a topper on mine, the extra pixel at the tip made sense to me.
