SummaryOK, Putting up the Christmas Tree can be a pain in the phalanges. This little widget is sort of a Christmas tree stand drill bit. Just attach it to a drill as you would a bit or screw driver attachment, then place it on the bent post that tightens the tree into the stand. It works pretty slick to tighten the tree and get it where you want it. I leveled it myself and had my wife standing by to tell me if I had it level. Luckily for me, I only put one Christmas tree up every year. My stand has 5mm threaded rods. For those of you who are richer \ Insaner than me, and put up more than one tree or a have huge freakin' tree, feel free to hack this up and make it fit whatever you have in your living room\ ball room \gazebo\ guest house\ padded room. (One tree is enough for me) Be sure to spay and neuter your pets... And weird friends and relatives who really shouldn't be reproducing.
