Transcript
Today is day one of building this year's Christmas tree. So for the structure, I'm building a custom iron base that looks like a tree. It's even gonna have metal roots. I found a welder that thinks he can build this, so let's go to his shop to show my design. Well, these are the drawings for the tree. It sounds like he can do it, so let's go get started. No we just finished cutting all the branches. There's a total of 32, and they're all different sizes. Do you worst This is crazy. Alright. We finished the top two pieces. So next, we're gonna add all of the scrolls. It's looking so good right now. For the metal roots, I need to draw a template, which is like, like Looks like a flower. We just finished the last root, and now we're gonna weld it onto the trunk. We really went from this to this.
