k6ccc Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 A couple weeks ago I posted in this topic that I had updated by web page to show how I rebuilt my pixel tree for 2014. I also noted that my web server was getting intermittent. Well, a couple days later it completely died. As of a few minutes ago, my website is back up (thanks Don), so you can see what I did for 2014. When I took it down Monday I took some more photos that were requested and will be adding those in the next day or so. I will also be adding a page on my CCPs in PEX arches. Lastly, my video guy should have videos to me in the next week or so, so those will also be available soon. The tree page is: http://newburghlights.org/pixel_tree.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Leonhardt Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 I have my tubing, got my bolts, but I also ordered wing-nuts for the back of the ccr tree. I have also ordered a large star from Brian, had it special made. Bought a plastic tool box that has a seal around the top that will hold 12 CCR controllers and 2 power supplies. Now I just need the weather to get better. Thank you Frank for all the help and picture's. I will post pictures when I get started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
