Niftylift Gives Everyone a ‘Lift’ this Christmas Niftylift’s Christmas tree provides some much needed Christmas Cheer If you live in or around Milton Keynes, you will have noticed the Niftylift Christmas tree, which has been on display outside its Shenley Wood world headquarters since the beginning of December. For those that aren’t local, read on to get a taste of the visual spectacle that Milton Keynes residents are enjoying this Christmas.
The Niftylift Christmas tree, which made its debut in 2016 (and has been displayed every year since), was conceived to give Niftylift’s local community something to enjoy in a uniquely ‘Niftylift’ way. Since its first appearance, the display has gotten better each year and this year’s tree is no exception! Standing at 30m high, the Nifty Christmas Tree is one of the tallest structures in Milton Keynes and with Shenley Wood being one of its highest natural locations, can be seen from sites all around the city. How’s the Nifty Christmas tree made? The ‘tree’ is made using three Niftylift HeightRider 28 (HR28) Hybrid work platforms. Each HR28 is wrapped with 3,200 LEDs, a cable run of 400 metres, and takes Niftylift’s team about 8 hours to wrap, per machine. That’s a total of 1.2 km of lights with 9,600 LEDs on the tree alone!
