All pieces are cut on a thirty degree angle cut, and have each angle face away from each other.

As a retired Economics teacher, I would have liked a breakdown of costs and returns. Thanks for all the ideas.
What angles did you cut on the pieces
Thanks

I like the jig i might make a jig now great video and the lights are a nice touch
Thanks for watching.
Nice job, they look great! Thanks for sharing the making of the jig! Going to make me some for gifts this year.
Anytime, thanks for watching. 😊
Those look very nice! May have to make a few myself.
Thanks for watching.
Interesting watching the process upside down.
Chuckles & Smiles, thanks for watching.
Been looking for this type of project. Would appreciate inches over metric. No big deal to converting. I have no problem subscribing at this time. keen on how you grow.
Thanks for watching, and I appreciate the advice.
Good work and thanks for posting your measurements too. I’m trying to find a string of lights that is small enough for this project. Any ideas? Thanks!
So, after visiting a few dollar stores in our area, I hit the jackpot and found the perfect set. They’re 6 feet long, took 2 AA batteries, and I mounted the battery pack on the back side. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
Yes. Thanks!
Thanks 4 that..I am goin 2 try...I do have power tools but still struggke wiv exact measurements as dont have sturdy enuf workstation/bench..Perhaps should be my first investment
You know, I totally understand your frustration, I too started out with an empty garage, hammered out some shelving along the sides of my shop, then when I saved up some cash from projects i built like our cornhole boards. I ended up framing a bench out of 2 x 4s, with pocket hole and glue construction. Then I purchased a few sheets of good one side plywood, which was on sale and skinned my work bench with it, creating what you see at the beginning of our video. It's been a great investment and works well with what we do. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.
Newer woodworker here. Thanks for the content! Good luck on your woodworking/RUclips journey! Sub!!! Wanting to start one myself.
Hey that's awesome, appreciate the kind words.
Interested to see what you come up with. Subscribed and have ya a 👍
That's awesome, thanks 😊
@@PatioBenders maybe I missed it but what were the initial dimensions of the boards you used in this build?
Wood glue won't penetrate wood that's already been stained.
Great point. Thanks for watching. 😊
👍
Thanks for watching.
How long of a stretch of lights do you think is a good amount to give a good covering? Bought some and they were just wayyy too long.
There's 20 lights, and there 6 ft long, and I keep them curled up when I install them. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Curious how much you’re selling them for in your area and if you’ve sold them all yet?
So we sell them for 30.00 CAD here. The lights really help their appearance, and lights are from the dollar store. The first batch sold within four days, I was shocked and the second batch is moving well, and after this coffee, the dogs and I are back in the shop, having to build a third batch. So its been a good experience, thanks for watching. 😃
where did you get the lights at?
Great question. I'm from Canada 🇨🇦, so for me, I went to the dollar store. I had to go to a few stores before I found what I was looking for. The light set I purchased comes in a package the same size as a cigarette cartoon, plastic in nature. One set of lights cost me like 2 bucks CAD. And the string of lights are 6 ft long and needs two AA batteries to light it up. I just hot glued the battery pack on the back side of the Christmas tree, fits well in behind and hidden nicely. Hope this helps, and thanks for watching.
Where do you get your lights from.
We purchased them at the dollar store for like 2 bucks each. Thanks for watching.
Source for the lights please?
So here in Canada, I ended up visiting a few dollar stores before I hit the jack pot. Once I found them, I purchased like all 40 packs at like 2 bucks per light. Chuckles & Smiles 😃 Now, I'm stocked up with lights and ready to use them as we need em.
Did you just stain for the finish?
We just used the stian as a finish on these trees. Thanks for watching.
I like these videos however they leave.majority of us frustrsted as the aversge Jo of this World doest have all the tools u demonstrate with..Yes would be relatively straightforward if we all had workshop,equipment & tools u have..Best tip here is dont watch unless u h ave tools needed to work wiv...& for the priducer how about u re do this using ONLY hand tools ..That would b amazing
just buy 4x1 and cut it 30 degree angles with a handsaw. It's simple.
Preferably use a chop saw as if you don't have any power tools you will likely find it very challenging to do a consistent cut with a hand tool
You don't need a jig either. Just measure the overlap and use nails to pin them together
Thanks for watching.

I have to see what I can do for you.

Maybe I am missing something but I heard nothing about the width of parts, the lengths, or how you joined the peaks. From this video alone, you cannot make these!
Yes, measurements would be helpful
Appreciate the feedback. I will see if I can place the measurements in my my description.
Not to take away from his video. But there is a 100 of these same videos. Hint: They're all cut at 30° angles.
@@MR-si1eq Thanks for watching.
