The platform for the treehouse is starting to take shape. I haven’t really figured out yet what I’m going to do once the platform is complete, but at the very least I’ll have a pretty solid foundation on which the kids can walk.
Since starting this project, I’ve found use for a TON of tools I’d almost forgotten I have. Rotary saw? Check. Buzz saw? Check. I should probably get a glossary to get a list of proper terms for the tools I’m using, but hey…I know what I mean when I’m thinking about what I need.
I’ve cemented the posts, bolted the frame, and put in the floor joists. At first, I had them 24″ apart, but soon discovered that length was a little on the too long side. So I threw in a couple more and it looks sturdy enough to start putting on the decking. When it was all said and done, I kinda surprised myself. I’m no Noah, but it’s halfway decent.
