Guest guest Posted September 7, 2011 Share Posted September 7, 2011 ND just needs to focus on one thing this week, and that is going into Ann Arbor and kicking the crap out of the Wolverines. I'm thinking a 30 point shutout would be nice...My Spartys will then travel to South Bend the following week and let them see what it is like to play the better teams in the Big Ten...

brownjm74 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Mark, I did something similar last year and it ended up that 9 of the 10 trees snaped in half. I used artificial trees and wrapped 800 of RGW lights on it. I believe that the trees couldn't take the weight in the wind. We had a couple of snow storms with 40mph+ winds. My recommendation is to set one of your already made trees outside for a few weeks (or at least for a thunderstorm with some wind) before you finish building all of them.I am currently working on a new design that is similar to a 6' tall tomato cage that is collapsible. I have a couple of night photos here: http://www.brownchristmaslightshow.com/2011-6-foot-trees.html and I will post more photos and details when I build the next one. I currently have 3 of them done.

Ouch! :shock: That would make me cry. I hope I do not have that problem. I will only be putting 1200 lights per tree, so hopefully that will help.... because I live on a hill and it is very windy here, too.Because of the wind blowing stuff over last year, I had to drive 6 ft threaded rods into the ground, and put them up the hollow center of my fake trees. None of them had nearly the number of lights as I am using this year.Now, knowing the trouble you had with yours breaking, I will be sure to leave lots of the rod above ground to have the extra support of the rod in the middle of the 'tree trunk'. Maybe 2 feet in the ground and 4 feet in the center of the tree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
