A DIT how to build a treehouse in the trees video part 2. 

Thanks Johnny! Kind words always appreciated. Between the two of us we can muddle through, usually. I will try not to to spend too much time up in the treehouse so that they can have a turn also. Barry

Definitely went to different high schools together! I am a little hooked on salvaged wood and roadside finds. Picked up some 5/4 x 6 this morning that I spotted on my bike ride. I guess I am a little lucky in that out city picks up trash once a week (supposedly). So everyone’s repair, deck renovation, or kitchen remodel stuff is placed on the street. Contractors are supposed to use dumpsters and pay for their own disposal. Add to that my house is in a nice neighborhood and we are next to some really nice neighborhoods so someone is always upgrading something. Always a treasure out there waiting to be found. Barry

Thanks Donnie! I am not much good at the lovey dovey part of grand parenting but I can make stuff!

Thanks Douglas, same to you!

I did that, it is our tiny house camp camper thing! Check out all the build videos. Barry

Yea, I am interested in figuring out that myself. My goal was not so much as to eliminate the bird mouths as it was to improve visibility from in the treehouse and appearance from the ground. There was a benefit from having just the flat landing to nail from and not having the little vertical register which a proper bird mouth gives. I am pretty sure the earth quake they had up in New York threw out some of my structure. The two support beams were no longer quite parallel so having a little location flexibility came in handy.

With a name like Troy Breaux where else could be from other than Lafayette! Thanks Troy for watching and for the kind words and for commenting. All good stuff. Yup, I am a Baton Rouge boy. We are almost neighbors. Barry

Funny you should ask that. Yes, you are listening to the little Honda generator unable to keep a constant idle RPM. But also what you can’t hear but what we can are pile’s being driven on a bridge restoration project a few miles away. That should brings back memories!
