UPDATE: 1
Added a smaller version of the base that fits and Ender-3 printer.
This is a RGB smart pixel mini tree using 160 pixels for the tree and 10 bullet pixels for the globe. Total 170 bullet pixels (1 universe)
it uses 3/4" PVC pipe and in-line PVC connectors to support the bottom and top plates. The spacing can be adjust to use 20 or 25 pixels to a strand. I used one inch spacing as my trees are near the road and needed to resolution.
I printed with PETG and they have survived the first year in the Texas weather without any issues. I included holes for tent stakes to hold them to the ground.
I used ribbon cable to run from the last tree pixel to the globe. As I ran my trees all off one E682 controller I did not feed back down a cable to jumper multiple trees together bu you can add a ribbon cable coming down from the globe. I just pushed in the 10 bullet pixels in the globe adapter and did not need to secure them in as the fit was tight enough.
I use 15% brightne
