πLink to Christmas Tree Building Plans: https://standishwoodstory.com/products/one-angle-christmas-tree
I discovered that many of my fellow woodworkers were struggling with building these charming wooden Christmas trees for the holiday season. That’s why I decided to streamline the process. In this video, I will demonstrate how to create these Christmas trees with just a single angled cut (30 degrees). Additionally, I’ll guide you through making a jig that makes assembly incredibly simple, especially if you plan to create several to sell or give to your friends and family. So, gather your tools, and let’s embark on this WoodStory!

Great tutorial. Just built one. It came out awesome. 13:10. Canβt figure out on how to send you a pic. Thank you..Ohhh and that Jig was super helpful..
"Holiday" trees?
Loved you video, great instructions. Anyway to make it smaller, I tried to divide all the measurements by 2 but it does not work out. My wood is .5" thick. Please let me know if you know how to make them smaller as my wife wants some small ones for a craft day with the kids to decorate. Thanks.
If I want a taller tree, can I just double the measurements, etc? Do the angles still work?
Nice project, and nicely explained ! It seems to me your workshop has the neatness and cleanliness that workshops run by men sadly lack, and that includes my own..π€π€·πΌββοΈπ
Hey, I realize that the angle on the miter saw is always 30 degrees. The funny thing is that when you write 30 degrees on your triangle, the angle of the triangle where you write it is actually a 60 degree angle. I was a little confused because I had paused the video at that point and my brain kept saying, that is not a 30 degree angle. I was drawing up a clamping jig that would use wedges in photoshop and when I made the triangle using a 30 degree angle, it was way too shallow.
I have subscribed to your channel I know I will learn more with you. Thank you I live in Canada π¨π¦
Don't thank me, it's me who should thank you for such a majestic explanation.
I had never experienced listening to a person detail so perfectly and thoroughly how to do a job. Really impressed congratulations
I have watched this tree being made by so many YouTube guys and I just want you to know you explained it so much better than anybody else has. Great job and great video.
Not trying to be a duck but at the 10:03 mark, there's NO way them.wood pieces are even. JS
Winnie, this is very helpful. Thank you.
Congratulations! Amazing idea! Greetings from Uruguay πΊπΎ
I have this exact set up! But I added a shroud… thank you guys!
Thank n you will look at other projects u have
Why dose it look like on the top piece of tree on side looks longer than the other , a good bit longer if u look at ur video u will see what I mean
Yooo no way you used my post from the Woodworking for Beginners group on Facebook at 0:17 thatβs hilarious, nicely done video!
To assemble the top piece, do you use that triangle to keep it right or do you use the jig at the bottom like you did the bottom
How did you make the triangle spacey thingy
Thank you finally someone with clear instructions & angles & measurements β€
Already making these but had to watch and subscribe. You're a great teacher
ππππ
ππΌ
Did you nail all the pieces or just the top ones?
Fantastic step by step instructions, and explanations. Some of the best I've seen. I will be making these… Many thanks
My mind doesn't work in angles (which is terrible for a woodworker). Your video and explanation and simple sketch is really helpful! Thanks.
Will 1 jig work for different wood thickness?
How much are the plans in America $βs?
I am so happy to come across your video. Wow, wow to you, girl. You're awesome, and I thank you for your love of helping people.
Very nice trees. Unfortunately, I'm not equipped with tools, but I sure enjoy watching you work. I wish I was younger
Brilliant. Watching from iuka Mississippi USA
You can even add shelves to hold whatever.
I went one step further and put little eyelets and put fairy lights inside
Great video! I just subscribed. I made one of these using a video from another YouTuber. I made a jig for my miter saw to allow me to cut a 60 degree angle for both top pieces so I can glue the end grain part together eliminating the overlap at the top.
No sanding required?
These are great!! Thanks for making it look so easy!! ππ
I really like your presentation and explanations. You'll show this is what you do and this is why you do it and what can happen if you donβt. I look forward to catching up on your previous videos and look forward to watching your new ones. Thanks!

Nothing frustrating or complex with 30β° angles I've always made them with…
Thank you so much for your incredibly well thought out instructions. A new subscriber here. Love & Blessings from Nova Scotia, Canada π¨π¦ β€οΈ xo
for the jig, could you glue the cut offs from the first 2 pieces to be the triangle piece?
Great video! How did you cut out the triangle safely? Did you place a sacrificial piece against the fence?
Thank you. I watched another one and I never could understand. I totally understand the way you are cutting. Trees tomorrow π
I would guess that you are now or was a teacher. Excellent tutorial.
Well done job and video .
