How To's
Walter loves to design "stuff". Through the years he has made several inventions that has helped the Christmas enthusiast to better their displays. These creations were presented via presentations at several of the workshops that we have attended. In this section he has put together instructions, diagrams, pictures and tips in building these elements. If you have any questions regarding the instructions, etc. please contact him at [email protected] or call 318-487-0736. He will be glad to help you!

The JUMP is a method of attaching a crank type jack to a telescoping pole allowing the pole to be raised safely with a minimum of effort. The jacking assembly is clamped to the telescoping pole and can be removed after the pole is raised and pinned in place therefore requiring only one jack to raise as many poles as you need. The telescoping pole shown here is extremely durable and has been tested to a weight load of 400 pounds. When properly installed the pole is capable of withstanding high wind loads without guy wires. Numerous configurations and combinations are possible depending upon the height desired.

The ColorMotions Tree is a mega tree that has RGB pixel strings attached to polyester banding material, which is tensioned between a topper and bottom ring. The tensioned banding provides support for the strings, keeps them straight and aligned, and rolls up for a small storage footprint. The tree can be built to any height. No guy wires are required as each tension band is rated at 1400 lbs
