    That's not a fort! That's the man's ultimate dog house!

    Think about it. The wind resistance would be optimal on the structure itself. However, the tree could pose a problem lol.

    You need a fairly large generator to run a microwave. I know I have one at camp that doesn't run off the generator very well. So where would the generator be? Unless they have it on the ground with wiring running up to the ball.
    Anyways it's not very woodsy.

    I think the craftsmanship on this is beautiful. I love the lines. It is very organic, not to mention I am a sucker for undecorated wood.

    This is not a kid’s fort. More of a small cottage in the trees.

    I like how they used a water cooler with built in mini fridge in its base.

    Mushroom House

    This structure is also in the trees. It isn't too far away from where I was born and raised. I haven't found any pictures of the inside of any of the three pods that make up this house, since the owners are reclusive and choose to remain anonymous. These are some of the better pictures that I've managed to find on the net.
    You have your way. I have my way. As for the right way, the correct way, and the only way, it does not exist.
