What kind of tubing do you guys use for making the branches on the pvc trees? And also how do you secure them at the holes? Glue or tight fit ? Sorry , probably dumb questions but I just want to do it right. Looked in archives but couldn't find the answers by reading or looking at the pics. I was planning on getting the 5/8 inch or larger, if I can find it, black drip irrigation tubing that lowes carries. Thanks Scott

I used the black irrigation tubing on mine...comes in rolls and fairly cheap. I just press fit them into the 'trunk', drilling a hole that was the same diameter as the tubing.

I used pieces of old waterhose cut in about 4 foot lengths. Just pressed fit and pulled thru tight. Catch cnbg by them all the time.
