What a cool base! Man, it's good! Did you have a starting block like a shed, or did you make it all from scratch?

Wow, nice. How much did it cost to build approx?

Well, I would estimate the top portion, which is much older cost about 50$ to make, lumber was cheaper 7 years ago. The bottom portion cost less, but as you can see its basically used as a shed when I'm not in a war. All the furniture is either old furniture from my house or what I picked up at garage sales.

That is really cool, and if I could I would build something like that. (I have the skills.) Actually, I think thats the best base I have ever seen thusfar. You said you built this? :D

My dad and I built it some years ago, it didn't really take as much time and effort as one would assume. The bottom floor was put in later, all nescessary was five boards for the walls and floor.

How many days did it take to build either part?

It took about a week for the pole foundation/upper floor, and about 3 days for the roof and walls. The other stuff I added over time.
