His little girl wanted a tree she could sit inside and read, so radamshome remodeled her room to include a full-size concrete and steel tree! It has a lower-level cubbyhole to sit in, an upper-level platform to sit on, branches and leaves hanging from the ceiling (with dimmable lights), illuminated fairy windows, an interior reading light, birds, nests, butterflies, and more. Not only that, but it’s designed to be strong enough to climb on!
The project took 18 months, mainly because he didn’t work on it constantly and he had to learn skills, like welding, as he went. This is a gift his daughter will never forget.
There are dozens of pictures of the build project and details at imgur. His next project is to build a pirate ship for his son. -via Metafilter
