Built a treehouse with my kids this summer

So I finally bit the bullet and started building that treehouse the boys have been asking for. Spent about 6 weekends on it with help from my brother in law. Used mostly reclaimed wood and some new 2x10s for safety. The kids helped with painting and hammering nails under supervision. Just finished it last weekend and they've barely come inside since. Best money and time I've spent in years. Anyone else have treehouse experience? Happy to share plans if you want.

That's awesome, man. Six weekends is dedication. My kids would live in a treehouse if I let them - we ended up just building a platform last year but they still talk about it constantly.

Dude, that's a massive win. Building something with your hands and your kids is what it's all about. I'm sure they'll remember helping you on it for years to come.

This is the kind of project that sticks with them forever. We've got a firepit setup where the kids love hanging out, and I bet your treehouse becomes that special spot for yours.
