Hey there,

Follow along as I make these wooden table top Christmas trees out of scrap wood. I used leftover construction lumber to make the tree frame. I made a couple of jigs to help make the project a little safer and to batch more of these out in the future (they would be great to sell at a craft fair). I made the dowels out of an old fence picket and used some angled cutoffs to make a jig for drilling holes on the drill press. Finally I cut up a discarded tree branch to make the base for the trees. I hope you like this project and maybe make one for yourself.

There are many ways to build and many different methods and tools to use. This video just documents the way I went about this project. I hope this video inspires you to build something and maybe use reclaimed materials as well.

Take care and stay safe,

JL
