Day 2 of treehouse work went... well... o.k. Found out today that what we thought were plumb and square supports against the tree actually aren't so plumb and square. But, adjustments were made and I think we are back in business. Floor is framed out. Cut one diagonal tree brace that will support against the tree at a 45 degree angle to center of outside rim joist - install it tomorrow.
Day 3 tomorrow. Agenda:
1. cut 2 more diagonal tree braces that will support from 2 bottom corners of outside rim joist. Not fun cuts to make. Gotta remember: measure twice...cut once.
2. cut 2 diagonal tree braces for the tree edge rim joist (1 on each side of tree)
3. put in 2 more floor joist hangers and joists
4. put in some floor decking if time allows
Day 2 pics below. Fun times!
