The U.B. 30 Treehouse- built and designed by Derek "Deek" Diedricksen- and yes, the "eye-windows" have lanterns in them. |
"Jethro, you's never gonna believe what's been goin' on down at the Diedricksen camp! They must be holding some sorta voodoo-pagan rituals in a newfangled, crazy temple in the trees they built down by the ole swamp!
You might have seen the video on this little 1-day treehouse/tree-sleeper I built for my brother for his 30th birthday (I added it below). "The U.B. 30" sleeps two, is supported by four trees, and cost very little to build- approximately $250.00. My brother, Dustin, and his wife (Dawn), have now used this little shelter several times (with their 9 month old as well) when they've been up at my Vermont camp.
Its basically another variation on "The Little Blue Bump" (video coming soon), and "The GottaGiddaWay" disaster relief/vacation camp shelters.
This series of additional photos was taken for my new book (out in February), and for use in an additional photo-based book I'm also sloooowly working on. Its not so much a tiny house, or a "real" house for that matter, but if built on a larger scale, it just could work. Why not? This version is 8 feet long by 5' 6" inside, and has a "ceiling" height of 4 feet.
