Building A Home In A Tree

By George Dodson


A potential personnel like you would be fool enough to choose a place for his creativity rather than a Treehouse. Post probably you will get Treehouse as much as the number as trees and you are recommended to do these on some general formula.

Step 1: Fixing the beam You are suggested to hold up beams of two sets what would be 3/4 diameter x 10". The top set of beams should be set in such a way that it would be the equal of the Treehouse. At this time you have to set up a border beam at the top of beams and square them. Your floor joist should be started when the frame is square.

Step 2: Leveling the Platform It is better if you level your platform with the support of floor leveling and to swelling a long 2x4 on one corner and go to the next corner with an eye to leveling that beam and install another 2x4. From my view the longer the level it will be superior.

Step 3: Fix the braces of knee It is the best time to install the permanent braces to support the Treehouse when you will see that your platform is completely ready. It is convenient to utilize a couple of 2x6's screw and recommended slant of cut is 45 degrees. It is better to lift some limit brackets to increase to the tree with another 3/4" lag.

Step 4: Deck installation When you have completed this stage a platform is ready to support you. So it is the key step I think. At the time of deck building I suggest you to begin from one end and it is better to keep much portion fallow at the edge of the board. It will helpful for you to make a smooth cabin. For spacing correctly your board you should use carpenter pencil.

Step 5: Frame and wall installation The walls you have will adjust good if you outline it on the ground. The thickness of your side should be considered at the time of taking the measurements of walls. Siding on the ground is needed to be established at the same time. It should think about that, the end of two walls should lie on top of the wall plane.

Step 6: Roof framing You cannot start if you are confused about the slope degree of your roof. So at first secure it. You have to determine the height of rafter first. Then install a center roof beam to support the rafters temporarily.

Step 7: Installing access ladder and door You should use treated wood for ladder building. Because, the ladder remains in touch with the soil directly. It is a fact that the steps are recommended to spaced 10 inches apart. It will be helpful for easy climbing.

Step 8: Your house is finished after installing the railing The recommended height of the fence is 36 inches. In the fence the supporting column should be spaced at 4 inches apart. For maintaining proper space you should better to begin from the middle portion. Again, all the tops should be screwed first. Then you are recommended to screw in the middle and at the very least to the bottom of the fence.

It is very important to ensure safety during construction. You should take a rope for your safety which is strongly attached to a rigid branch of the tree Store helpful equipment for emergencies. Be conscious at all-time. Dont worry! It is nothing but just a funny work.
