Hi Folks,
I have been working on this little tree for a little while now. The biggest problem I had in starting it was the rain. Since I have to do all of my cutting outside.
The plan is to have a short tree to line across the front yard. If my measurements are correct then I will need 16 of these little guys. Since building the first one I have already made one change that is to make each "branch" one piece. So instead of cutting two pieces it will be one piece that I will just bend to fit.
Stats: (Current cost to build one tree - $2.07 Not including paint/lights)
- 18 Inches tall
- 16.5 inches wide
- pvc construction
- (1) 10 foot 1/2 inchschedule 40 pvc
- (1) 1/2 inch cross
Update:
There are now only 5 parts for the tree - the main pole and four branches
1 - 18" (Center pole)
4 - 22" (branches)
A lot easier and stronger
