Playhouse build

[Blane]

I am building a playhouse for my girls to enjoy for a long time. One of my girls is 2 yrs 8 months, the other is only 8 months. My wife and I have looked over several pictures and designs on the internet and finally came up with a plan. I didn't want to make it a permanent fixture so I built a skid for it out of steel then started up with wood. The skid is 8'x10' with 4" square tubing welded at the corners and center. The actual playhouse will be 7'x9' with a 3' deck in the front and off the left side. Worked on it last night and got the legs in, floor joist's in, and started on the decking for the playhouse.

I figured if I built it right to start with, when they grow out of it Ill have a nice blind.

The skids are 2 3/8 pipe and I bought weld on 45's and weld on caps. Got the decking for the actual playhouse down and the deck boards. Next step is putting up walls.
