KarKraft Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 With thanks to Graham Lane's post on another forum, I found these DIY videos for cheap AND effective pine trees. The first video shows how to make a simple jig to make the process easy: http://youtu.be/r5jPBzbpP4U Quote Fairmont Park Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarKraft Posted February 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) The next two videos show you another winding method that I think is not so good, but his foliage technique is much better. Combine the two and I think you have the best of both worlds.

Ember Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 The thing is I don't SR. I've really done nothing with pine trees at the moment. Need some small ornamental cypress trees for a current job. Quote Computers. They'll never catch on.

shadow_rusty Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 I guess I was looking more to the title than the content... I know you have made some great wire trees, but this is more for the pines,,, My bad... lol.

mattcrackers Posted February 18, 2013 Report Share Posted February 18, 2013 If/when I get around to making my smallish rally track one day these will come in a treat as most of the trees I'll need to do a Dwellingup stage are pines, how simple are these, might have to start making a few. I did see Grahams post on the other forum and I think your right about mixing the 2 to create the best of both worlds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
