Description

This is the STL file for our 8" Seed Pixel Topper that holds up to 48 strings. This thick topper plate can accommodate a pipe up to 2.5" in diameter with multiple mounting bases available for purchase. Our unique design allows most seeds pixels to be fed through the top of one slot and back up through the next slot allowing for a traditional down then up routing. The topper can also be used where a single slot can accommodate a strand down and up allowing the base of the seed pixel tree to be much wider than compared to the top.

Each slot is individually numbered to help identify which strand is which for easier programming in xLights. The available mounting bases are available to mount the topper to 1/2" and 3/4" EMT or PVC using a stainless steel 1/4"-20 bolt that is 2.25" in length. The mounting base is bolted together using stainless steel 1/4"-20 bolt that is 1.375" in length. A stainless steel locking nut can be used for all of the bolts.

Each of the 48 strings also has a small hole on the inside that will accept a 3/32" stainless steel cable to be used as a strain relief on the strands. Simply cap the cable on the top of the topper and zip tie the seed pixel strands to the cable. Either springs, clips or just securing the cable at the bottom by lopping it around the base of your choice.

Our seed pixel topper works best with seed pixels from Your Pixel Store and are sold in rolls of 1,000 and can also be purchased with xConnect ends already installed.
