Got tired of having to deal with poorly design Christmas Tree Stands so I decided to make some improvements to an old commercial unit I had kicking around. My stand originally consisted of four L-shaped bolts to secure to the tree trunk. The bolt side facing the trunk would dig into the tree as you tightened the bolts. As a result, the tree clamping never became super tight (sponge like effect) and would loosen up as the tree settled in & began to dry up. It was also very difficult to get a good torque on the bolts due to the short 2” L-shaped portion of the bolt. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much to grab onto & it would often hurt your hand when trying to get them really tight.

Supports:  Doesn't Matter

Resolution:  0.15mm OPTIMAL

Special Notes: 

The design is for 5/16 inch bolts. Resize the design to accommodate different bolt sizes.

Description of the improvements: 

Added buttons at the tree end of the bolts to better clamp the tree trunk. The trunk buttons help in two ways: 1) they provide a larger surface area thus improving retention; 2) they don’t dig into the tree so are able to provide a consistent, reliable & secure hold.

The second improvement was to add larger grip handles at the L-portion of the bolts. This greatly facilitates tightening the bolts by hand.
