Hanging of nodes on a megatree

[rm357]

I'm thinking through how to hang my nodes on the megatree. Since the wires between the nodes cannot support the full weight of the string, I'm thinking of attaching the nodes to black para-cord. If I just zip-tie the nodes flat against the para-cord, the weight of the node is going to pull the node inside the tree and the para-cord will block alot of the light from the closest strands on the tree to the viewer. Has anyone done some experimentation to find the best way to hang/support the nodes??

Thanks!

Looking at RJ's video of his show walk through, it appears as his are hanging to the inside on the black para-cord like you said RM.
His show video looks fine to me, so maybe it doesn't have as much effect as you think?

By the way this is the way I was planning on doing mine too. I bought 1000 feet black para-cord for $40 shipped from amazon.com, current price is $47.49
