Big badass tatted up Marine that’s a big softy for his daughter!! Love it!!
Thanks for watching Bryan!
That’s awesome! Love to hear kids laugh and smile. I plan on doing the same but for my grandkids.
Good luck on the build, there are plans available.
Well done! A true American hero and a loving father!
Thanks for the kind words, let me know what you think of my other videos
This man obviously has a background in carpenty. Beautiful craftsmanship all around. I am getting ready to build my kids a treehouse and am getting ideas.
Thanks for watching. I have build plans available on my website if you want to follow what I did. Good luck on the build
@KeimpieceCarpentry thank you sir. And I'm gathering from you video that you served in the Marine Corps. Thank you! Much respect.
@@MrHamster512 I sure did. Thanks.
She's lucky to have you as a father
Thanks! Her and her friend are playing on it as we speak
That's badass brother, I really wanna do this for my little princess too
You can do it! use the plans and follow along with the video. It's easy
You did a wonderful job!!! I know your daughter will remember this moment forever! ❤
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
Absolutely the most satisfying video I’ve ever seen on YT. Just complex enough to be worth the build, but shown with enough detail to make it seem doable by a man with decent tool skills.
Add in the zip line, dog, all the kids and the swing, and you make a dad aspire to accomplish this. Thanks for the how-to!! I’m mentally planning and saving now. 😂
thanks for watching and the kind words! Go check out my other videos, I bet you'll like the Gazebo, Shed, and Pizza Oven Build Videos.
You’re the coolest dad by far
I try! Thanks for watching
Outstanding workmanship! When you wrote "putting up the balusters" I read ball busters and thought BROMG he's making an O Course for his kids lol
No better friend, no worse enemy and definitely no better dad
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other vids
thats funny
Let’s go dad!!! I know lifting those walls was heavy!! Good Gawwdd. I dream of building something like this for my daughter!!!! Thanks dad!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it, let me know what you think of my other videos
Watched over 10 videos on "DIY treehouses". This one's easily the best finished product by FAR. Great work man
Thanks for the kind words! Next video will be a diy pizza oven build. stay tuned.
Amazing job, beautifully designed and built. The children and the dog are adorable. God bless
Thanks for watching and commenting, let me know what you think of my other videos
Awesome job! The princess has a castle...

REAL NICE YOUR KIDS ARE LOVING IT, GOOD JOB
Thanks for watching! You're my first comment! Yes, all the neighborhood kids live in my back yard now, I guess it's my own fault.
Great job that came out incredible! You are a great Dad with some lucky kids!
Slainte,
DC🍀

Loved seeing the dog enjoy the project build 😊 looks like a kids paradise. I was thinking maybe you can add some tall trees on the fence line for additional privacy. Great job! 👍
Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of my other videos!
There’s a man that loves his kids!
Sure do. Thanks for watching Ben!
Awesome!! You are a great dad and craftsman! Well done.
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
An exceptional job, you did everything yourself. Very inspiring, I found your video looking for a tree house, but you make a whole playground, great job 👏🏻
Thanks for watching, there's plans available on my site if you want to build the same thing
Великолепная работа!
Самый лучший папа !!!
thanks for watching
You’re the man. Good work, brother.
No you're the man! Let me know what you think of my other videos
Great work! You have a lot of motivation. I think beans will hold two elephants. I'm also wondering what will happen when the tree grows.
Thanks for watching. Good question. The tree grows outward, so the trunk will get fatter. I designed the support to facilitate this without issue.
I'm pretty sure trees push up out of the ground. A friend has a hat rack that was put up for horses about 40 years ago. It's now about 8ft off the ground.. be interesting to watch
Great job. You have inspired me to build for my grandchildren. Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad you enjoyed it! Let me know if you need the build plans
Bought your plans - hope my boy likes it. Great thinking with those HDPE pieces. Thanks for posting!
Good luck on the build! Let me know if you have any questions.
@@KeimpieceCarpentry A quick question for you... does your treehouse move around quite a bit when the kids are playing on it since the one side's joists aren't secured to the tri-beam? I assume yours is pretty rigid since your posts were fully set into concrete, but my posts are secured to footings by metal brackets so they're not as rigid and I'm a little concerned about this thing moving around a lot.
@@brianpeterson3752 mine is rock solid, no noticeable movement.
최고로 멋찐 아빠~
thanks for watching. let me know what you think of my other videos.
Hey awesome tree house, is the platform floating on your beam? I’m building one for my kids and are using the tabs and floating brackets. When you set your posts in the ground I assume that the actual platform is floating to let it move freely.
that's correct. The post side is solid but the tree side is designed to slide on the beam, that's why I added the plastic pieces to reduce friction.
Oorah brother, bad ass
Thanks for watching. Let me know what you think of my other vids
5 kids!, you must be rich!, amazing build, my only take away is that those steps don’t look up to code to me, then again, it is what it is, stay safe!
thanks for watching. Only one of those is mine.
You’re an awesome father
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
Just curious if the tree can survive that okay. Seems like the bolt went pretty deep. Thanks.
Thanks for watching, yes the tree isn't effected. There have been lots of studies done and these bolts are made specifically for this application. The tree will just grow around it.
Very nicely done, I did the same thing, I say its for the grand kids but the pleasure was all mine.
Thanks for watching. Yea I think I need to add some chairs up there for a nice place to smoke a cigar.
Doesn't get any better than that!
thanks for watching Terry!
Perfect just perfect!!!!!
Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of my other videos
Kids are great
certainly are
Awesome job brother !👍👊
thanks for watching, check out the gazebo build and shed build, I bet you'll like it
Would the cut you made with the band saw be feasible with a table saw? Can't tell how deep the cut was.
you could make the cut with a table saw you'd just have to do it on both sides and then use a hand saw to cut the rest of the way through. Hope this helps!
@@KeimpieceCarpentry Thanks! I bought your plans.
Awesome! good luck on the build let me know if you have any questions!@@raffytwoscoops
awesome project, semper fi
Thanks Devil Dog, check out my other videos and let me know what you think.
Awesome job man!!!
Thanks Kyle, let me know what you think of my other videos. You'll probably like the shed and gazebo one
Thank you for the ideas!
You’re welcome
Great build and Semper Fi!
thanks for watching! Kill!
I bought your building plans, wood and hardware. Wish me luck! The boys will love it
Good luck! let me know if you have any questions
@@KeimpieceCarpentry I just finished it! The plans and instructions were great.
@@tjminc440 Glad to hear it!
I'm about to do this build, wish me luck! 😅
What lube did you use for the TAB bolt?
@@TreyBills have fun on the build! I used mineral oil and bees wax
Haha might as well put a window unit in. 👍 nice job
I'd be lying if I said I didn't think about it lol thanks for watching
Very cool. Was thinking of something similar, I just dont have a tree to anchor to lol.
You could just use 4 posts instead of 2
Awesome work !!
Thanks for watching
Amazing! Whats the dimensions of the frame and the house? Im thinking of doing something similar
There are plans available on my website if you'd like to build it. It's actually a pretty easy project, I designed the plans in a way that reduces that amount of materials and cutting required. the house is 6x6 and platform is 12x8
Very nice work. What software do you use to design your projects?
Thanks for watching! the program is called sketch up. Plans are available if you want them. Check out the link in the description
You will be the forever Superdaddy. ♥
that's the plan! Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
That’s badass! Semper Fi
Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of my other videos
Great build. I found your videos while looking for treehouse builds. I've watched most of your other videos now too. I plan on downloading your Treehouse, Shed and Gazebo plans for my own projects. Retired Army Scout here. I tried but not once in any video did I see a bowl of crayons, still looking though. Love your videos brother. Thanks for your service.
Thanks brother! I have a few other videos in the works, just need to edit and get posted, need some more hours in the day. Follow my Instagram Keimpiece Carpentry. You'll see a lot of the work I do is custom military plaques, share it with your scout buddies. Good luck on your builds, feel free to reach out with any questions. Call my cell before you start any of the projects and I can talk through some lessons learned.
@stringmankzk Will do brother. Im not quite the carpenter you are so I need all the guidance I can get. I'm really feeling the urge to build my own shed/shop as opposed to buying one, and your 12x24 is perfect.
yea the shed itself is fun and not too hard, it's the trim and finish work that is a pain in the butt@@Red.4.Actual
@@KeimpieceCarpentry Does your shed plan include a material list?
It sure does @@Red.4.Actual
God job father sons
thanks for watching. Wait until you see my next video I'm working on. Wood burning pizza oven.
Love this bro. Good stuff
Thanks for watching!
Great work!! Our daughter has been asking for something much like this. Do you mind sharing a ballpark of total costs to construct this?
Thanks for watching. I don't recall exactly but I want to say it was maybe 3k. I have build plans available in the description and you'll be able to price it out based on the material list included in the plans
Thanks for your response. That’s helpful!
@@agslovesjesus984 Of course! Let me know what you think of my other videos
What are the dimensions of the deck and playhouse? This looks perfect for my kids
There are plans available in the video description if you'd like to build it yourself. Check them out.
Cool vidoe
thanks
Great job brother, a lot of love went into that build
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
Kool dad .👍
Thanks for watching, let me know what you think of my other videos
The world would be a much better place if more fathers were like you.
That's kind of you to say@@EmanuelYeotis
Dream house 😊
Thanks for watching!
Great job bro

Good video
Thanks Adam, let me know what you think of my other videos
Cool vid
thanks for watching
I wish I could build something like this for my son
You can! I have plans available in the link in the description and you can just do what I do in the video! You can do it!
Fantastic job! I would love to know where you got the flags from.
Here is the link to the MC flag amzn.to/45MqdIv
here is the link to the American flag

@@KeimpieceCarpentry thanks!
no boys allowed except for daddy 😂
Wonderful job!!
That's right! Thanks for watching, let me know what you think about my other videos
I started building this in my backyard with the price of wood and material, I might as well have bought one.
you could have bought a swing set yes, they don't sell tree houses.
Perfect
thanks for watching
Good job dad. What paint gun is that?
thanks for watching, it's the Graco. Here is the amazon link to it amzn.to/3wo5jmf
Skivvy shirt sleeve head wrap… IYKYK
that's right!
How did you ensure the posts were perpendicular to the tree?
thanks for watching. I measure using 2x4s on the ground to get a sense of right angles.
Looks great but it's crazy how expensive those hardware kits are. Just a platform would run easily $1000.
yea the kits are pretty expensive. It's hard to find an alternative though. I'm sure you could order some larger lag bolt somewhere but you can't find them in local stores. If you had a welder you could also weld something up I'm sure.
What size floor joist did you use 2 x 10 or 2 x 12?
Thanks for watching and commenting Bryan. They are 2x10s. There are plans available in the link in the description if you're interested in replicating.
What lube did you use on the TAB bolt?
mineral oil and bees wax. It's the cutting board finish that I make.
Excuse me sir, I work for the city building department and I have a few questions
lol thanks for watching
Lovely❤️
Thanks for watching! Let me know what you think of my other videos
Definitely stealing some your designs for my Grandson
please do! I'm sure he'll love it. They are for sale on my website if you want to purchase them, save yourself some time. Link is in the video description. Good luck on the build!
What is the material you used for the walls of the house?
LP smart siding from lowes
@@KeimpieceCarpentrythank you! Last question: did you use treated wood for the house part of the tree house? Or will regular 2x4’s work?
I just regular 2x4s for the house part. No reason to use pressure treated. I didn't want the kids playing and coming into contact with whatever chemicals they treat that stuff with
@@coryfuqua7297
How come you didnt put the remaing two legs of the platform on the ground as well rather than paying for expensive tree attachments
Because then it wouldn't be a tree house. I'd have to dig down to pour concrete footers near the base of the tree which means I'd be digging through the tree roots. I also didn't pay for the hardware :)
Hey, what about the tree? Is it dead now?
Thanks for watching and your question. No the tree is not dead now.

🎄WATCHED AND COMMENTED🎄
Awesome thanks!
comment
Thanks
Not trying to criticize your craftsman skills but those posts should have been at least 3 feet in the ground for a footer.
Thanks for watching and commenting Evan. Our water table is 24 inches. I dug down until I hit water. Going any deeper wouldn't have done any good. But you're right, the deeper the better.
@stringmankzk wow, that's a shallow water table. Thanks for that info.
@@EvanRobinson85 yea man it's crazy, I'm in Eastern NC, very close to the beach. Drainage is always an issue. Check out my gazebo video you'll probably like it. Part two shows a big french drain system I put in
this is overkill. this could hold 30 men on it
Also the battery up there seems like a good idea, but kids are kids, and they will leave on the fan and light every time the use it.. so every morning a dead battery.
