MAKING THE WORLD BRIGHTER, ONE BULB AT A TIME

Mega Tree Base Tutorial - Page 5


20.) Take your last (4) 45" horizontal supports and attach them to the top octagon and vertical supports
21.) Now add the last (4) vertical supports near the center of the horizontal supports.
22.) Take the last (3) pieces of 10' Gray Electrical PVC Conduit and make your top ring same as you did before. Then attach it to the upper horizontal supports.
23.) THIS IS NOT A STEP. Notice anything here? Yes, this is the step from above where I had to remove the top ring and all the vertical & horizontal supports to install the upper trunk ring. You can see here how it attaches to the underside of the upper horizontal supports.
24.) VOILA!!! You are done. Now you can paint. I find it easier to paint once it is all assembled rather than all the pieces on the floor. The paint tends to scrape off where you snap the supports on anyway. Since the only purpose of the paint is to hide the white pipe, it really doesn't matter. Your choice though.
