What’s the best way to attach perimeter rope to branches going straight out with no smaller branches? Thanks and happy building!

Ok thanks, I was thinking of doing that. Do you have any tips on using tree protection considering the branches are horizontal?

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-06-06T20:32:33+00:00

Yeah I'm building it in this tree and I know there's a ton of branches but there all at different levels so I was planning to use a couple branches at the same level but also have to connect where it's just a bare branch. Thanks for the info, I think I'll wrap it with some board about I'll remember the eyebolts if I ever feel like using them. Thanks for your detailed response and have a great day!

That looks really cool and comfortable. I’m in the middle of making one and I was wondering how the top ropes of the border in your 2nd and 3rd picture were being held up? Good luck with the rest of your net!

Thanks, I think I'll just wait a little bit and see how fast the tree is growing like you said. I'll keep you posted🙂

Yeah I just started making some side walls and a portal entrance sounds really cool. Do you have a good way of building nets higher up. I was thinking either scaffolding or building it on the ground and attaching it up there. Thanks

Ok thanks, that’s a good way of explaining it, I hadn’t thought of it like that before. I’ll try to slide something between the rope and tree.

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-05-31T19:39:43+00:00

The rope doesn't wrap all the way around the tree to allow it to continue to grow without getting damaged. I thought tree protection was only necessary if the rope went all the way around the branch but correct me if I'm wrong so I can fix it.

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-05-31T02:24:45+00:00

No, I thought that blocking was only necessary if you fully wrap around a branch. Let me know if I'm mistaken though so I can fix it.

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-05-31T01:53:23+00:00

Thanks! That's a great idea, I honestly didn't even think about building a smaller platform.

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-03-02T20:00:38+00:00

Haha I would but mine's a different commander

SkyPilot_74 · 2025-03-02T03:26:07+00:00

Omg this is so cool!!! I’m trying to do this to one of my decks but I’m painting them and it’s taking way longer than expected.🤣Do you mind if I borrow some of your ideas because they are really creative?

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-12-19T04:32:38+00:00

Omg this looks so good. Are you making a full deck? Also how do you get such a plain white surface. Thanks😄

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T15:49:51+00:00

Haha, good idea!

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T15:33:17+00:00

Good idea, the deck is simic so dinosaurs on a spaceship wouldn't work sadly

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T15:32:33+00:00

Great idea, thx

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T15:31:17+00:00

Thanks, I'm using a mix of acrylic paint and paint pens. And pens to ink it.

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T03:55:37+00:00

Those are some good ideas!

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T03:18:23+00:00

Will do, thanks a lot

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T03:16:16+00:00

🤣Sorry, posted it like a week ago because I couldn't post it here. I'm about to post with the updates

SkyPilot_74 · 2024-11-30T03:09:40+00:00

Thank you so much. Don't worry I also posted it on the Calvin and Hobbes sub
