That looks good.  You do wire frames have you thought about something like this.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwDgEpqsgNhfSlc0cWRRWS1xZ0U/view?usp=drivesdk.     

No I haven't, but I think that I could make it. Can you send me some more pictures and the sizes to info@wireframedlites.com

This Frame is something I found at Home Depot. It makes a great collapsible structure for pixels and would probably do a fantastic job for a spiral tree. It's six foot but I know many people would like to get this in an 8-foot. I kind of thought it would be up your alley and thought I would show it to you. here's a link with more photos.    https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwDgEpqsgNhfVzhyVVJ1YnBRODA.      The tree is packed away right now I figured you could use the photos to make one with your spin on it. The big thing with this tree are the wire hoops that are tack welded to the chains to make it collapsible. Let me know if you need more I can pull it out and get more details to you

Well, I've made my first ever Spiral Tree and I think it came out pretty good. Can't wait to get it into the display this year.

Here is a video of the test. http://wireframedlites.com/videos/ST_TEST.mp4

Hope it un-assembles easy. Looks too big to get out the door. Or, is it supposed to be your inside tree this year? ?

Either way - looks good.

The bottom ring is in 4 sections. I unbolted it into 2 half's and folded in and it went through my door. You can also unbolt all 4 sections and it will be smaller.

Is that the 6 foot tree that comes with the round 2-3" colored bulb lights?  I think we have that one!  Your modification looks FABULOUS.

No this is not that one. I made this myself.

Me too. The boss said to get it out of the living room and as soon as I can, I'll set it back up and video it in the dark.

I think the boss was saying get it out of the living room as soon as you record it in the dark. LOL :)

I'd like to see it but it doesn't help us who don't want to be forced to have a Facebook account just to see the video. 

I'm not forcing you to have a Facebook account. The website was down so I put it onto Facebook so it could be seen, The site is back up so you can see it now at  http://wireframedlites.com/videos/ST_TEST.mp4

I didn't think you were trying to force me into a Facebook account. I was speaking of Facebook itself where it won't let you do anything until you set up an account. That point forward it takes over your life and computer. (Can you tell I have a dislike for Facebook)
