Long Island Treehouse: Day 3 Install

Day 3 is when it all comes together! Follow the guys amazing progress through the day in this series of images:

It takes teamwork to get a clubhouse up in a tree. Today is when the magic really starts to happen: raising the walls, lifting the roof in place, adding the firepole, railings, etc.

By end of day it will look almost complete! It won't be - still a million details to make it strong & sturdy and ready for play. But look and see how cool Day 3 is...




Cutting floor boards around the tree...











Laying out the hand-carved signs that will be added once the treehouse is up...






Quick lunch break on site, usually a picnic in the grass...












Securing the first wall, then bringing the others in...












Raising each wall is a team effort...













Next the roof goes up in 2 pieces and slides into place..











Once the roof is on, it really starts to look like a treehouse!







Marco & Will as counter weights, securing the roof...













Dig the hole for the firepole...
and call home...











End of day, dusk coming in...
