Great video Thankyou team. I sort of did what you did but I put in a base made like a flag poles base. I augered a 12inch wide by 4ft. deep hole then weled a base from channel iron with 2 upright channels with 2 holes in each. With a large bolt in the top hole the metal mast pivots then a bolt in the lower hole holds it snug. I now have a proper flag pole in my yard. I used 3/4inch metal pipe for the ring to stop the wires flapping around. I like the fact that it is a family event. That's how my kids were raised, paper snow flakes and odd christmas ball mobiles all over the house. Cheap and easy and the childeren help make christmas. God bless.
Best part of this video... including the little one.
As a father that doesn't get to see his kid that much, you brought me joy seeing this.
Teach them as much as you possibly can. It's the most important thing to this world.
Cheers, and Merry Christmas.
I liked the video but the music is really annoying, especially to someone not watching. Best tree video so far
Love this video. This will be added to my Griswold display..lol..I hope my electrical breakers csn handle a few more lights..lol
I used your design and made a few modifications to it and it turned out great. Made it very sturdy to stand up to blustery winds we get in Kentucky. Even survived the high winds on the night of the tornado outbreak. Fortunately no twisters where I live.
What did you do for mods. I was thinking same thing I’d need to get it to stay put much better. I’m in New England. And weather here. Would knock that thing over almost instantly
That looks amazing
I think is beautiful! Well done
If only we had spools like those with multicoloured Christmas lights here in the Balkans. It's impossible to find traditional incandescent mini lights here, even led shaped like traditional.
I love the result :)
Love it. Just think the base may need some legs to widen its stance. It’s hella windy in Iowa. We had many days with 50+mph wind, but love love love this idea.
maybe use some sandbags or bags of gravel too,maybe under a tarp as a tree skirt ? would have to stake it down......hmmm.
@@rebeccacostin9707 I’ll give that a whirl. Starting decorating today. We do about 50,000 LED lights so the process begins. Lol. Thank you so much though.
We have an over 50ft tall tree from them.. We have 3 tie down points w 3/8 inch cable. The cables each are attached to 1 cubic yards of concrete below grade. We install it on dirt. We have over 50 mph winds every Christmas.. The structure does not move at all..
Awesome job with that tree🎄🎄
That snowflake topper❄ looked good ..
Nice job
this was an awesome project! Thanks for working with me!❤️❤️❤️
FUN IN THE SUN anytime
Nice video my friend Stelios 👍👌
BilLVeR Καθημερινές αποδράσεις thank you 🙏.
That awesome!! ‘‘Tis the season 🎄🎄. I will be making a few of these on a smaller scale. Thank you!
love this christmas tree idea! so cool and actually looks pretty easy.
The World By Drone everyone needs on this Christmas.
Is this safe for the wind and snow because I’m in Illinois
Awesome job, i work at a plastic pipe factory and am known as Mr Griswold in my town lol. I'll be using some of the ideas from your video for sure. May make my whole frame out of pvc for weight. Thanks for showing how you did this.
Very cool
hd2kill thank you
Thanks for sharing guys. My wife would love for me to put something like this up in our yard lol.. maybe a smaller version to start with... Full View and like 14. Hope you're having a good weekend...
Allen Oxendine everyone across the country need one of these out front. Make it any size you like. Thanks for the support :)
good job 👍👍👍
I made this tree this year (nov 19) came out great . I did do one thing different . I could not find 1"rigid conduit at my home chepot so I used 1"black pipe sanded it down and spray painted it .I found that 1" pipe would fit perfectly into a 1 -1/4 " pipe. I bought a 1-1/4 by 12" long pipe nipple. I then used a hole digger to make a roughly 8" wide by 14 "deep hole , flared out bottom of hole and cemented pipe nipple into ground(roughly 2" below grade) .I taped top hole of nipple so no concrete got in and tried to make nipple plumb.When I was done stringing lights just picked up tree slid into hole in spring i will fill in and seed.
Thanks for great video Stelios tree looks great
Christopher E sounds really nice.
thanks for that info! I did that exact same thing today...I went went an 18" x 1 1/4, but otherwise did as you suggested, now am trying to calculate how to string the lights.
@@BrentKleinheksel glad it worked out for you .......
yyaaaassss that thing is huge!
Evelyn Toy Discovery thank you
I'm going for 30'. Wish me luck!
Justin Miller do it !!

great project but is that MDF? Any rain or moisture will destroy it.
Lost in Iowa we are in LA. Second year using the same circle. Should get another Christmas out of it.
Great idea! I can't climb ladders anymore and was wondering how to make a lighted tree without climbing a ladder to my old clothesline telephone pole.
Worry about lightening and metal poles without using rubber?
You worry to much.....
I like the idea of the pvc. Is the pvc about 10' diameter, using C = Diameter * 3.14
Jake Sadlak 10ft
This is a really awesome mega tree! Great idea!
Taylor Koutroumbis let me know if you build one?

Love it! Yall did amazing.. Merry Christmas.
2:00 It is called a Pipe Flange or Floor Flange.
Tim McKinney ding ding ding!! It’s only taken a full year for me to find out. Thank you.
Looks great!
Great video
Where did you get the star from?
Ωραίος ο Στελάρας!!!!!! S-teleios....
It’s that time. Check out my 30ft tree and a chance to win a $100 bucks.

How far past the pole did you run the lights in the setup
I'm builidng a 20' tree and using some of your ideas...excellent vid.
Jake Sadlak nice! Check out this years 30ft tree. I am also doing a giveaway.
👍👍
MDF in the elements.. Im sure it lasted for a long time....
Awful1 I am using the same cutout this year. Held up fine. Check out my new 30ft tree.
I would never use MDF outside. It will just start to warp and fall apart once it gets wet. I like the use of the metal poles but would definitely use metal for the top since it will last in the elements of outdoors.
@@Patrickschmear1763 I used a 12" abrasive wheel by dewalt, got it for 7 bucks at lowes. Holes drill super easy and a smaller top looks better. I mounted an 18" star to the top with led tape lights.
Those lights are old fashioned we used to have those in UK and Australia in the late 1980's no wonder they were on sale at home depot
How well did the umbrella stand hold up? Did you have to use any tension cables to hold up the 20ft section?
It actually held up really well, but we put a lot of weight on the stand. No tension cables for this one. The following year we made a larger tree on a hillside and did use tension cables.
@@Santamonicadrainco thanks for the info! Yeah i was hoping to not use any tension cables if I didn't need to. I am also doing it differently where instead of having that circular pvc base I am hoping to use stakes to ground it directly. Fingers crossed.
How long do you add at the end of the pole when your wrapping it?
You guys missed a step
what is the diameter of the MDF?
Dangerous Cougars 1.5ft
in denmark everybody have an flag pole in the garden and, we hang lights on it, we have in stores special lights made for the flag pole on christmas time
wTHEs you also have chocolate Milk and hotdog stands :).
@@Santamonicadrainco ja, we do have those too
hey love the video and wanna make my own this year. what 10 ft pole with a thread at the end is that. when i was in home depot i couldnt find one with a thread to connect
Probably conduit, electricity aisle
It looks like galvanized iron pipe.
You used all the light rolls?
What is the item you slide the pole into to stand it up?
Where did you get your 10 ft 1 in metal pipe with threading?
so I notice you started with 8 holes now do you have 16 ?
I will try to do it with Woodglut plans.
It’s called a Flange... lol
Try to do it with Stodoys plans :)
I started with Woodglut plans.
Looks like crap
