Title: Tree house build
Post by: Burl on July 06, 2019, 09:03:45 AM
Thought I would  share what I've been working on lately, instead of trains.  We had another boy  in May of last year, so hobby stuff has gotten put on the back burner for a  while.  My oldest (6) decided he wanted a tree house for his birthday.  I  started this in January, and finished it on July 5th.  I tried to do mortise  & tenon joinery where ever possible.  About the time I got the tree house  dried in, he decided he wanted a swing and a slide.
