Question! I’m no carpenter or really even done something at this scale, so I’m unsure of a lot os these kinda things. How do you screw in the other side of the blocking?
Thanks a lot for the video. You said quickly that the joist are also fixed to the beams, is it correct? I thought there were not, in order to leave freedom of movement
Can I just use hurricane ties instead? The rim joist combined with the plywood top should provide plenty of strength, no? This is how I made decks before...
Pete, you forgot to explain to people that whom are not used to measurements or understand when you measure from longest to shortest or did I miss that you explaining this 🤔🤙🏼
Pete you are a living encyclopedia. Thank you. Hello from Russia
Thank you master for everything
Can't wait to put up a great little treehouse/writers' studio between two giant cedar trees in our backyard!
Pete, thank you for sharing these tips. They're awesome sauce! 😄
What a wonderful life.
I.Love this channel x

How do you secure the left side of the blocking that's on the joist with blocking already on the other side of it? Drive screws at an angle?
Yes!
This shows up as #14 (after Rim Joist vdieo) in the playllist, it should probably be swapped?
Dang, that wasn't supposed to happen. Thanks for letting us know - unfortunately I do not think we can switch them.

The beams need to be able to move relative to the trees but the joists have to be firmly attached to the beams. It would be very unsafe otherwise

I’m curious why you put the joist on top instead of between the beams ?
The beams support the weight of the joists directly. Placing the joists between the beams would not be as strong.

What kind of wood are the joists?
pressure treated spruce
No sound coming through.
