Derek “Deek” Diedricksen is at it again with a special MAKE episode of Tiny Yellow House. This time, he shows you how he made a fold-down fort for the kids using mostly recycled materials. It’s great for a small kids’ play area as it folds up against the wall and transforms into a fun art piece while stowed.
