At last finished, here is the Coke can Christmas tree sitting in the office:

A small addition

Just made this to top off the Christmas tree:





Of course, it's cut from a Coca-Cola can :)

Bigger is better

So, this is where we left off:


Seven cans high and seven cans wide. Hmm, I think I can do better than that. And so I started to think on how I could add more layers to the tree. This was one of the first ideas that came to me:

I started building the lower 'ring'.

Two can wide.
And this is how it should look when it will be finished.

The lower 2 layers that will be added.




There we go! It looks a lot better than it did before.

It's almost there

Below you'll see some pictures spanning 4-5 days. To kick it off, here you have the 3rd and 4th layers already attached.

Top side view.

Layer 5. Notice my two favorite tools: Superglue and superglue activator (dries the superglue in mere seconds - as opposed to ten or more if you'd leave it to dry in air).


Layer 6. Almost there...


Dun dun duuuunn! Layer 7, comprised of a single, majestic Coca Cola can.


With the stand attached.


Ahh, c'est magnifique! But wait, there's more to come... Stay tuned.
