Singing Christmas Tree for RGB Pixels

thingiverse

This is 3D printed prop in the shape of a Christmas tree. It is used with standard 12mm pixels. It is designed to be setup and animated to "sing" along with music. There is a model file that can be used by the very popular Xlights squencing software as well. The tree is about 44" tall and 34" wide and holds 167 lights. There are multiple pieces that will be put together like a puzzle. The zip file includes a crude picture of how to assemble. The design includes "ornaments." These are attached using monofilament. The zip file contains all the STL files. I have shown a couple of the pieces to look at as well (but mostly because I'm not sure I understand what is about to be published and Thingiverse made me include at least one STL file!). I have shown the assembly drawing for an example of the final product. This is my first attempt at making a 3D object. I anticipate making revisions as time goes on. Your feedback on improvements of the design and formating of future Thingiverse uploads is welcomed. Change for 3/15/2021: Updated the readme file. Realized that the Xmodel supplied really wasn't very good so this was changed to make hopefully make more sense and make wiring better. There will still be some splicing of pixels needed. No changes to STL files. New Zip file has date stamp 3-15-2021.
