These trees look fantastic! Thanks for sharing your techniques!

Dear Dave, beautiful trees! Cool to see and hear your footage, where you’re wiring your stems whilst the Boomer tune is playing in the background. Like Norman said, think you definitely can add another stem wire for your O scale trees. Or at least the lower part can handle an extra piece. Do recommend to try out any coarse or fine paste to further the bark texture at the stems, especially at the lower ends. Also in combination with the sawdust method. I too may use spray adhesive now and then, but find that the trees canopies stick better over time with Matte Medium. Use both in conjunction, spraymount for the first tack and then a Matte Medium solution as a fixative. Love the paint job. Cheerio

Hi. You did well on your trees. Outside in the sunshine they looked right at home, very realistic. It would have been nice to see them planted on the layout. Only to see the scale comparison. I felt as though the main trunk could have used another strand. To add to the width of the trunk. But I could be wrong. Very nice looking trees. See ya.

those really turned out nice!
