TexasLights Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 there are a couple of sizes. I bought one of the 6' (16 X 25) pixel trees this year as well. I started building a star myself but ended up buying one of the Bosco Chromostar 15" stars. It is a good size to match the tree. It had 40 pixels so I drilled holes for an inner 10. I also added a few more pixels so I switched to 100 light strings for that. If you don't want to use pixels, the size would still be a good starting point.

BobW Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I also went with the Bosco Chromostar 15" star with 10 extra holes. I configured my controller to double up on the pixel strings, to 100. It gives 4 free ports, one of which drives the star. Still toying with what to do with the other 3. Maybe arches(?). Bob W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasLights Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I added a couple of candy canes (2 X 48) to use up 1. I chose a slightly different arrangement for the inner star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob W I elected to supersize the tree, I added 4 more pixel strings and only went 270 around. Will find out if I like it once it goes live. Still playing at this point. And hopefully you have another bed to sleep on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
