I wanted to make a wooden Christmas tree made of wooden strips. I found walnut strips and result and this ,,,

Very nice simple and effective design - wish I had that number of walnut strips kicking about!

Impressive and different. Thanks for sharing. Our cats would love it... to bits

They do not make many pieces, because I cut it twice. First straight and second one inclined at 22.5 degrees. I did not throw a lot of stuff. In the first tree went 90 m, and in the second I finished yesterday 140 m, which bigger ,,,

I like it - unusual design

 

[zoki4691]

Unusual decorations, I would say. I made some wood shavings, made with the Japanese planer. I made various essences, walnut, larch, pine, and oak.

That's amazing, I love it!
Is each strip fixed in place in anyway? Or do they all swing round?

 

[zoki4691]

The strips all run around a threaded bar from M10, and everything only goes up from the top with an M10 nut. After the holidays all stripes should be folded like a fan, so they take up less space.

Stunning, I bet it smells really festive too! Many thanks for sharing and inspiring.

That looks terrific lit up. There's a lot of pieces involved so I was wondering how long it took to assemble it? Does it all stay put and does anybody or anything brushing against it potentially lead to hours/days/weeks of endless re-setting?
