• In February of this year the cry went
out on the LOR forums. It was cry
for help for any information on who,
if anyone, made their own sturdy
“Wire Trees.” The answer was…no,
no one did.

3. CChristmashristmas LLightight AAdditionddition PProgram – 2013 ©rogram – 2013 ©
• This is a “Wire Tree” or at
least what they all eventually
look like. In just a few
seasons they loose branches,
the thin wire bends and the
plastic fasteners break all
leading to a less than stellar
appearance.

4. CChristmashristmas LLightight AAdditionddition PProgram – 2013 ©rogram – 2013 ©
• The root of the problem
is that “wire trees” are
“cheap and cheaply made.”
Small metal rods, thin
walled tubing and thin
gauge sheet metal
combined with plastic
fasteners all engineered
into the perfect failure.

So what’s the answer?

6. CChristmashristmas LLightight AAdditionddition PProgram – 2013 ©rogram – 2013 ©
No
Compromises!

The redesigned tree, now known
as the “Rainy Tree”, was built to
be the best it possibly could.
Matt Ross, the designer has
refused to compromise any
quality for cost. As a result
the tree is built like a tank.
And should long outlive any
incandescent lights, pixels, or
any other light elements placed
on it.

The best feature!
• The best feature
of the “Rainy Tree”
is that it is also
designed for
compact storage.
The tree folds up
neatly for storage
without having to
remove the lights
or pixels.

10. CChristmashristmas LLightight AAdditionddition PProgram – 2013 ©rogram – 2013 ©
• Trees can be made from 3 to 6
foot and having from 4 to 9
branch sets respectively.
• The design is fully customizable.
If a fuller tree look is desired,
more branch sets can easily be
added.
• A 4 foot tree with just 5
branch sets will hold 168 mini
pixels on a 4” pixel spacing.
• An optional adjustment screw
allows for easy branch angle
adjustments.
