The Best Hut by Jono WilliamsWe've seen a lot of sweet treehouses in our day, but never one with a remote-controlled drawbridge! Jono Williams got together with a group of friends to build this high tech <a href="http://thebesthut.blogspot.com/">"Best Hut" treehouse</a> in New Zealand, but this isn't the first time the 24 year old engineer/graphic designer has relived his childhood with such a fun project. In fact, this is his 10th treehouse and counting, and it's one of the most sophisticated. Built almost completely out of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling">recycled materials</a>, the 12 meter square hut has a rainwater harvesting system, a hot water heater, a gas-heated bath, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode">LED lighting</a>, and - did we mention this already? - a radio-controlled drawbridge. Plus it only cost $1,500 to build. Check out a youtube clip of the bridge after the jump.1
