Oh Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!
Designed to be printed in is single wall vase mode. Photos show it printed in transparent green PETG.
May release a dollar store LED light kit design for it soon.
Fairly large model 210mm dimeter by 300mm tall. Scale to fit your your printer.
Could scale the z height separately for skinnier or fatter trees.

Notes:
I printed without base layers so I could eventually put a light inside. I used 4 brim loops at 0 distance so the first layer would stick well.
A bit of over extrusion helps the layers stick. And running a bit hotter. Run slower until you get it dialed in.
4h42m to print at 0.2mm and 100% (300mm tall). But upped the speed a bit and got them to print in about 3h45m. Varies with filament.
I stay in shape with Onshape.
