Why are people complaining about this build? Its just a play area for his little son not a fucking house that needs to be build according to building codes. With that being said, nice job sir Im sure it will last till he grows old enough to lose interest on it. This inspired me to build one thanks for sharing.
Because he doesn't understand how to build in a tree that moves in the wind and grows. The first big storm could shatter the whole thing like a tornado hit is. In addition, he has bolts just inches apart that will cause the tree to compartmentalize that area, basically killing it off. Then those bolts will be holding nothing but dead wood. If his kids are in there when that gives...
RCLegion while we understand it's not supposed to be up to code some of us are offering constructive criticism on what could have been done to make it more secure, better etc. The thing with youtube is you can show anything being done 100% correctly and someone will always have an argument from what ive seen. I watch this old house episodes with pros building shit by the book and you still get internet pros criticising parts that were done wrong. Go figure.... On the flip side some comments are just assholes saying the whole thing is going to fall apart etc.
RCLegion for what its worth the poster did a great job and im sure he isnt a master carpenter but probably a weekender. Hell he may not even know anything about this field but it looked like a fun project and im sure his son is stoked.

Great video, I like how you take us through the thinking and building and asissting building. Too many videos of treehouses online done by pros to like like a 5 star bedroom in a tree.... Not my idea. Thanks for sharing!
it's just a matter of time before it's on the ground because you don't have enough support. several of the things have driven me crazy about this but it would take too long to list
I like how you started framing around the tree.it looked like the powerlines was right over the tree house when you get the roof on I got some big oak trees.i would like to put up treehouse like yours..thank you for your videos.
As the tree growes it is going to either grow around th boards or break them. Get 10" nails and leave 2 or 3" sticking out past the board-don't drive them all the way in. Then don't notch the top beam and attach it with a small chain. This way everything can expand as th tree growes.
How in the hell are you going to hate on a man building a tree house for his Son? Wow.... get a life you f'n vampire's. Constructive criticism my Arse, just a bunch of trolls doing what they do! Outstanding job Ricardo! I Like the fact that your son has your back and is telling these haters whats up! Stay up Familia!
First, thank you for making this video, it was 5 years ago and I am wondering if this tree house right now is usable and safe, I mean, I have watching a lot of video with expensive tools, special bolts etc etc, and this video so far the most realistic for a normal guys like me, but safety is important, that's why I am asking if your project has been successful since 5 year ago. Thank you very much.
I would suggest joist hangers and blocking between the joist to make the base more secure but for what it is good build. I guess its supported enough for a few kids. You def shoulda left room for some tree growth where your plywood was cut around the tree. Cutting your rafters and notching the crows feet looked pretty clean. Just curious how much did it run you in material costs? I would guess anywhere from $700-800 ?
Sir... I would like to just say that u have inspired me to try and involve my kids in the making of our first youtube vid... Im in michigan so it may not b til may (wen the ice and cold come down a bit) but im gonna film every step of my fam doin all our stuff outdoors... Watching ur vid makes me want to b a better dad(not that im not) but i wrk 60 to 70 hrs a week and still come home and make time for my kiddos. Single income family and its hard😞. I would love nothing more that to buy a house on 50 acres and let my kids go wild... Didnt read description and not sure if u mentioned where u were but it looked like cali.... Please, if u could? Id love to see and hear more about the stuff u do!

Nice job! Pressure treated fresh lunber play house. All that ammonia salts and copper outgassing. Power lines overhead. That tree will grow bigger and rip those boards apart. It will sway in breezes.
that tree isnt big enough for what you are hanging on it. but i love the build structure of what you did. I have a rock on the property im going to anchor a platform to it and lift a travel trailor minus the chassis. about eight feet that should keep most critters away. most likely I beam framing and concrete butrace. thanks again...
@@ricardosworkshop i live pretty much anon. i was known in the engineer field ...got sick of the attention at conferences. I can make an exception for the idea. I own properties in NH, ID and TX to name a few this is a ID idea. I am 3500 ft level about a half mile front tree line. It is at the tail end of access mining and logging roads. the closest hospital is Canada. You carry armed up there because of the people running from the law. I have owned it for 30 years, never a problem with the cabin. too cold most of the year. the snow keeps the driving down so we snow mobile up. fantastic hunting, we feed the animals year round through a company that hires USGS and Department of Interior Interns. I will send you a site that shows them setting up cameras. In the spring we drive this jallopy, it is a car with a box welded to it. old deer mothers that are too weak to care for fawns leave them on the mining roads. if we get to them first the animals dont get them. we take them to the USGS building and they send them to vets. rusic as you might imagine. The TX property is basically three farms and we work with a few others. we feral pig hunt and grind up the pigs to feed raptors ...one mountain farm has three eagles living on it full time. there are a few farms that raise sick cows for the leather and the meat goes to feeding animals. sounds like allot huh! I know a few people like you on YT ..just enjoying life ..say hi to the family lol
NICE WORK, but the OSB is a poor choice for exposed decking plank. Marine Plywood or Treated Plywood are expensive but they will last than OSB . As soon as the element / WATER finds its way , that OSB will SWELL and crumble like CRUMB CAKE
All of that work for the house to not last very long. You never attach any part of the structure to the tree. They make special bolts to allow the tree growth. This house is gonna be all jacked up in a few years
I drink beers but its usualy just dealing with the headache of trying to tend both of my kids lines while were fishin lol... I grew up the right way... Teach them common sense( not have ur hand out expecting more) my dad was a bit of an ass wen i was growing up but now i totally respect him and apreciative of all the real life things i was taught!!!! #oldschool
Wonder how long it took before the HOA ordered it's destruction and the arbor day foundation fined him for the lag bolts which eventually will kill the tree?
Eventually the tree will indeed break it. But that will take lots of time, and by then the tree house will have to be demolished anyways. But the 4 year video shows that it is in good nick. It could with with some pressure washing etc.
@@ricardosworkshop hey, youay have already been told this, or know, pray not care being that this video is older...but I've had this happen on one of my top videos. What I did was revert to the original, and went over my music with "TH-cam approved [free] music" in the creator store. Also just wanted to say, your video is right up my alley for making the tree house. I appreciate it. 👍
The tree will grow around the lumber over time. The lag bolts wont hurt it like you think it would. I'm 30 years old and the tree house we built at 15 years old is still standing today. I dont trust the floor enough to go up in it but it is still there and a reminder of my friend (a army veteran) who has passed. Build it 🙂👍
I'm sure based on the construction it's already down. The growth of the tree is enough to destroy the frame the weight of the platform and frame will crack with the small bolts in the tree. How bout an update?
@@ricardosworkshop too bad. I heard you say it's time to come down and you made repairs.....I'm gonna use the video from this old house. My kids are 4-5 and 6, so they will need more than 5 yrs with it. Have a new one on the way so thanks for the update.
This tree has a lot of growing to do.. it will get thicker .. doesn't seem to have room for it to do that .. so it will get crippled or it will bust out of that center frame section..
Build that box larger around the tree, double up with 2x12 and use smooth 1" - 1-1/2" lag bolts, give it about 4" all the way around to grow. The lags will slide as the tree grows. Do the same with 4 angle supports on the corners for stability. That's a lot of weight teetering at the center.
that tree is going to tear this thing apart and it needs some supports on the sides. you get 500-1000 lbs on one side of that thing and its tipping over...
Wanted to see your video; but your audio keeps cutting out! Sometimes in mid-sentence your voice goes out! I wonder if I were able to turn on subtitles to offset THAT?! Will try it again~ see if subtitles work 🧐🤬
Lag bolts just kill the tree, now if you would have followed Tadashi Kawamata and used straps the tree lives long enough for you kids kids to enjoy it! Just saying

It was still standing when the house was sold. But i believe the new owners took it down.

Tree might grow in thickness and smash the basic support system.
This tree has a lot of growing to do.. it will get thicker .. doesn't seem to have room for it to do that .. so it will get crippled or it will bust out of that center frame section..
alfriedar, yup... This will not work. The structure will be compromised in a short time.
Build that box larger around the tree, double up with 2x12 and use smooth 1" - 1-1/2" lag bolts, give it about 4" all the way around to grow. The lags will slide as the tree grows. Do the same with 4 angle supports on the corners for stability. That's a lot of weight teetering at the center.
