So I have never built anything in my life. Until a year or two ago, the only power tool I had was a drill. I have always been fascinated with building going back to the early 90s and watching This Old House, New Yankee Workshop, and Hometime on PBS every Saturday.
But after thinking about this project for a long time, I went for it. I am building my kids a treehouse! Fortunately/unfortunately, I am still working full time, so I am just trying to fit in a few hours when I can.
Here is the base and the ladder:
And I am working on the walls now:
It is definitely not fine/finish carpentry like many of the amazing projects you guys have, but I am pretty jazzed with how its turned out so far. While I have zero background in building things, I do have a degree in math, so it helped with actually figuring out how to make this all work.
