Bachelor Christmas Tree

logo.pngAs I was looking over the site of the creators of the Mt. Dew Tree they ask that you do not post their pictures without permission. However there’s not copyright on them I’m guessing in large part due the fact that Mt. Dew is a copyrighted trademark of Pepsi Co. However I am deciding to pull the pictures down since they ask not to post them on their website. However their video on YouTube can be found here. You can visit the site of the creators of the Mt. Dew Tree here.


**Post edit – Tuesday December 11** I get no credit whatsoever in this thing. This is not my idea at all. I received the pictures in an email that didn’t say who came up with this or anything. The guys that created this can be found at www.MDTree.com. Check their site out. It’s even better.

    I have been saving Heineken bottles for a non-Tannenbaum construct. I may just have to divert the mission supplies for a Yule appearance.

    Would you consider including these photos in NowPublic’s “12 Days of Newsmas” holiday contest?? They’re brilliant. You can upload them here: http://tinyurl.com/3427o5 . Thanks!

    any details? type of wire to support the cans and lights? PVC tubing for center pylon? height of ‘tree’?

    i see a drill in the first picture. used to drill holes in the pylon? in the cans to hold some kind of wire stop (back), and/or to keep the can from rattling (front)?

    amazing ingenuity and vision.

    any estimate on how many cans it took?

    in my state, you can get 5¢ a can even with holes drilled in them.

    Chris – hey man. I just got these pics in an email yesterday and it didn’t say where they came from. Honestly I’ve been really busy today so I didn’t get a chance to Google it. Believe me I am giving credit to the creators of it. It’s pretty stinking cool. I’ll update the post.

    If you go to http://mdewtree.com/ it says “Do not rip the images and post them on your own site without permission.”

    Now that you know this, you should really take these photos down.

    It would have been a real bachelor christmas tree, if it was made out of Heineken cans. Mtn Dew cans are just nerdy.
