Vertical supports? (Trees)

13 years ago

Dan, are the "tree" support just set on top of the stone? how is the deck over the water supporting the weight of the stones and tree framing structure. Really fascinating to try to figure out how you do all this- Extraordinary talent and vision. Must have been a special experience to visionize this and have it appear as amazingly as you did.

Thank you for your comments….I’m blessed by the opportunities that have been extended; and feel like I have the best job in the world! True passion for this part of the world and unique clientele is a large part of it all….

In direct explanation to your question…there is much more occurring than what is observed in the photos; and has been detailed at some expense. Sealed drawings convey the approved methodology and a verbal discussion would never cover all the technical aspects of a safe installation.

Best, Dan
