Tree Bases for Bottle Brush Christmas Trees

thingiverse

***Update*** I have bought more bottle brush trees, of a wider range of sizes than I had previously, and found, the bigger trees are on, unsurprisingly, thicker wire. These bases were made for the size I had at that time, which was about 1.5mm thick for the post. For 2.5mm, and for 3.5mm thick wire trees, I just scaled up by 150%, and increased the slot size to fit both, and the test prints have the XL size works for both of those sizes. ************************************************************************ I wanted better bases for a cheap set of bottle brush Christmas trees, that I could slot the wire core of the trees into. I remixed Jennifer's Tree Bases, with stumps, with a hole for the trees to slot into. I panted up one of the small trees as a test, along with one of the bases. Works great. Trees don't topple over, and they look great flocked with static grass. also, they stay in the bases so if you don't need to glue the trees into the bases, which makes storage a lot easier. Now to paint up the rest.
