NC treehouse builders: Panthertown swimming hole access: Can you spot our timberframe tenons? Can you see our bit of timber framing craftsmanship? In the center of this lush wilderness photo, you may be able to spot our posts with tenons (a “tenon” is a projecting piece of wood made for insertion into a mortise in another piece) cut to hold the mortised cross timber that will act as part of the lateral supports for the entry of the bridge. (If you want to see the handiwork up close, check out our next post.)   >View photos of our recently completed Panthertown Valley treehouse that’s on the same property as this swimming hole access project.

NC treehouse builders : Panthertown swimming hole access: View of bridge from the path above Looking down through the lush forest from the path above, the first supporting posts of our swimming hole access bridge and platform seem small indeed. Actually, these huge locust posts are attached with special hardware that’s carved into, and then bolted into a natural granite boulder on the site.
