When its time to fight, you fight like you are the third monkey on the ramp to get on Noah's Arc... and brother, it is starting to rain!

Don't forget to tin foil the roof.
What sort of contraption will loft personal to the tree house?
I'm thinking a ride in the loader bucket or maybe even a rope ladder would be fun for most but knowing you & Joe a trebuchet or other ingenious contraption may be in order for the lifting duties.

Dave, yer not foolin' me-I'm waiting for the pics of the shooting lanes going in planted with buckwheat and clover. Knowing you, there will be lazer rangefinders mounted to the roof on gimble brackets that articulate and pivot to cover all the trails and bedding areas. The cable operated automatic deer drags will go in next, along with the mini distillery on the third floor below the heliport and the satellite dish.........

Bent nails are part of the education! Earmuffs at the saw? Yanno, to be able to hear a twig snap in the future?

I guess I truly am some kind of dinasour. Lol. I can't even make it through a tree fort project without safety violations! I'm good to have ear protection on hand when shooting, especially for the kids. I do need to have some hearing protection added to my shop's ppe inventory. I do a lot of grinding and air hammer work, its loud as hell. I've got the glasses, full face shield, various respirators, but I have no hearing protection on hand in my shop. I need to get some.

you're a smart cookie Dave
I can like that about you.
just did a project for your oldest boy that was hella cool
now one for the sprout
only move you had, but too many aren't smart enough to see it.
that you can, well carry on you car restoring, skyscraper fort building dude
I have this sneaky suspicion you ain't gonna go through some of the heartache some families do with their kids.
least I hope not
you're one cool dad

I'm sure you probably got it covered Dave, but I'd be remiss not to mention it.
some of those walls are gonna need hinged windows yaknow
kinda hard to defend the fort if we don't have shooting access with the bb gun.
c'mon pard FOCUS (grin)
