I'm going to do a full 360 megatree, about 8' high and using 4 x 128 pixel strings, 32 pixels high by 16 total up/down strings. I'm struggling with what to do for the base. I haven't experimented much yet. I know it's possible to make it out of PVC. I would like for it to be circular, which for PVC means bending it unless you use the really flimsy stuff. Any other ideas?
I'm planning to use galvanized tubing for the center pole, driven into the ground. I'm considering just staking each string directly to the ground (instead of using a fixed base) using leaders of varying length since my front yard has a little bit of slope to it.
