Drew_ 10 Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 anyone have any pictures or tell me how you wrap the lights around your spiral tree? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EWTalley 18 Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 This might help, 8' tree, 6' base, 16 strings of 50 count c6 lights, 1 1/2 times around tree, run the strings around the tree 1 1/2 times (not tight - the supporting cables must be tight), don't worry about the spacing untill you get done then space the strings even and wiretie where needed.

rando1957 0 Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 Earle - still trying to see how you do your base. I think I understand you drive a 1.5" PVC pipe in ground, slide metal plate over pipe and then slide galvanized pipe over that. Is that about right? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
brutale 0 Posted December 25, 2013 Report Share Posted December 25, 2013 this will help with the spacing. The base i drove stakes in the ground in a 10 ft dia for my 15ft tree and attached the cable to them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
