First Baptist Church - Springdale, AR


Simulator for 15x9x6 matrix (810 channels)
using miniature strings of 20 lights

Side View

Strings were wired in using MidiLite pigtails (12 ft. cables with a male MidiLite connector on one end and bare wires on the other).

The model is just over 8 ft. tall and is 35" deep.

The tree rows were curved using bendable plywood and green plastic fencing was used to attach the strands of lights

Strings of 20 lights were purchased from Hobby Lobby. They are available in "Clear" and "Multi", so bulbs had to be swapped around. The "purple" is more of a "pink" but other than that, it worked pretty well.

Mid-way Baptist Church - Raleigh, North Carolina

Hyland Heights Baptist Church - Lynchburg, Virginia
