Here is my work in progress collection of LED Megatree parts.  Initially I am posting a 32/16 string version, I also have one for 24 strings.  This consists of 2 pieces which mate together tightly which hold the wire strings tightly.  I used M3x12 screws but the goal is just to pinch these 2 pieces together.  Please note that I used VHB tape under each wire string to keep them from slipping, this was actually a lot stronger adhesion that I thought.  Then there is a 2 piece cover(due to printing geometry) which glues together with seals out the water and allows for a star to be placed on top.  2 holes in the sides secure the outer ring to the previous pieces holding the strings.  A pole supports this up in the air, I used a pool skimmer pile because it was cheap, lightweight, end extended.  Then there are 2 options for the bottom ring, I first used fiberglass wire pulling sticks which were ok for small trees but too floppy for large(over probably 5' in diameter.  I am now experimenting with aluminum telescoping tent poles.     I will add photos and information over time.
