To build something crooked and leaning doesn't take much effort unless you're doing it on purpose. Then it takes a lot of thought.
Looks cool, I like it. |

That should look nice. My daughter asked for a pink and purple play house, you lucked out on that front (as did your neighbors) in avoiding the Mellencamp color scheme. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Cool effect, OP.
Takes a lot of extra effort to make things like that. At first I was thinking, "Ok. The deck looks good. I wonder how many beers between the deck and the framing"...then I realized the look you're going for.

Fences aren't top heavy, standing on blocks, and don't create lift the way roofs do. But as long as you've considered it, and are confident, I'm sure it will be fine. Quote HistoryQuoted:
