Safety first kids….er, um, in our case, almost dead last. At least we got there, right? RIGHT.
The hog panel railings are in, as is the handrail on the looong ladder.
We are debating the pipe finish. I’m in the camp of letting it rust and age a bit, then clear coat to seal the patina.
So what does this milestone mean? More than it looks like because now, I feel it’s OK for the Things to have friends come and play in the treehouse. Without these key safety features, there had to be adult supervision for friends to climb up and check out the progress.
Railings = Freedom!
It wouldn’t be a proper structure without the bucket/pulley dealio, now would it?
Just in time for the weekend. When their buddies come over, I’ll fill the bucket with their snacks so they can hoist them up for a feeding frenzy.
