      Tensegrity Christmas Tree, its 36ft tall and has 1,130 LED lights.

      Got this idea from some of Kenneth Snelon's work.

        I am assuming the current is through the tensioning wires ? Might help if the show that the structure is also a circuit by including them, Tensegrity structure are not easy to understand and are a bit counter intuative if not shown clearly:)

          The wires are hidden, just trying to see how it looked with the lights on. Still have to design the end caps were the cables are attached.

              A fascinating idea, nicely tackled.
