Has anybody out here built this playhouse ?

Just curious if anyone out here built the same house and could give me some
insight offline.

Thanks for your time. I've got a baby girl that is going to be very happy
once it's done.

Pretty elaborate if you have never done any construction at this level
Think of building a house - just on a smaller scale. The finish work is
about the same, just the lengths of the boards aren't as long!

I have not done it, but it looks like a skilled project.

You are obviously a loving father. Let me tell you
my experiences. I built a very sturdy swing set,
a regulation sized soccer goal, two desks, and a
large storage cabinet.

The swing set and the household items got a lot of
use, but the soccer goal was used for one summer.
My younger son wanted me to build him a tree house.
After I got the plans, and fortunately before I
bought any material, his friend got bit by a spider
in his tree house and then my son didn't want one.

I suggest you wait until your daughter is about
three years old. Show it to her, see her reaction,
and let her enjoy the anticipation of it being
finished. Also I hope you are already aware of
how persnicity women are about furnishings. :)

I built a shed using the Better Barns plans. Those were pretty
straight-forward.
.
These plans are construction drawings. The baby is 3 months. It will take
me three years to built it.
.
Perfect timing.
.
thanks for your time.-johnny
