Anybody watch this show? I watched all the episodes this season. I like the tree houses and actually wouldn't mind doing that myself, growing up in a family of custom home builders, I have a deep understanding of all residential construction. But I wonder what the liability would be, he has to have a "hold harmless" agreement.
The thing that bugs me,Pet Nelson, the owner, you can tell he has some training and may have been in our trade at one time. But on several different points, when he talks about trees and their biology, he is wrong. Sometimes he is almost right, but not quite. But gives it out as if he is a authority, which he should............if he has it right. Then, they talk about experts, but have no expert tree guys on staff, their climber is a rock climber who freaks when he is just a little ways up? But then the seasoned carpenter goes up pretty high and is teaching the rock climber? You would think since he is getting anywhere from $50 to $250 G's for these, he could afford a pro tree climber. They are always talking about rigging this or that, then u seen them using cheap boat ropes and sail pulley's. One seen they got on a bunch of PPE, next seen, guy is in the tree with no PPE and one handing a POS saw! Dudes climbing in sandals! I dunno, kinda disappointed in all that. When are we going to get some proper recognition on one of these shows! Oh wait we did. Saw for hire...........NOT!
Those tree houses are badass tho!
I am going to build one in my yard, have a massive hackberry in my woods that is perfect. Don't know that I will have a plasma in it tho!
