Abominations Thread XLVProblem Solved! editionThe old thread no longer bumps: >>2777360 #
>>2795722reminds me of some of the kitchen layouts i see in manufactured homes. seems like they're all designed by literal retards that have never been inside of or used an actual kitchen before
>>2795722but is it bigger on the inside than it is on the outside?
>>2795722>>2795723>>2795724All reposts from earlier threads. Get new material.

>>2796357Let's just take a moment to appreciate the real estate agent who didn't try to frame the photo around the mold or crop it out of the picture.That's someone who understands their job.I mean, any buyer coming to see the house is going to see that shit anyway, so it doesn't make sense to waste time on someone who would walk away at the sight.
>>2796373Is that a lot of mold?Could someone clean that with a wet sponge?

>>2796350I've run into something like this in the wild. Except it wasn't an island. When you walked in the front door, directly to your right was a stretch of what should be just countertop but the range was right there smack in the middle. No cabinets overhead, nothing. Like you walk through the door and can set your keys in a pot of boiling water.
>>2796941>I've run into something like this in the wild.Watch where you're going next time.
>>2796521look at how the moldy area is sagging, and the hole at the bottom of the ramp it makes, the water supplying the mold is coming from above. Also the dried paint balloon running down the wall, this place had or still has a big leak.
>>2796815>if your hot dogs ain't 950°C don't invite me to a fucking dinner again
>>2796350ive seen some fuckgin nightmare flipper houses on those realtor sites. places that were falling apart shit boxes and got "renovated" by some retard asshole and ends up looking like some MC-Escher drug and alcohol fueled shit show
>>2796354in a kithcen so small it is a crime to sacraifce cabinet space for a fucking dishwasher why builder or remodelers think poeple cant live wihtout a dishwasher is beyond me.compounded by the fact they shoved the sink into the corner like that, underneath the overhead cabinets. god this shit makes me rage.kithen sink belongs in front of the kitchen window. simple as.
>>2796356looks about right for a basement. theyre almost alwasy fucked up in some way.ive grown to fuckign hate basements so much

>>2797072i can't help but imagine this was taken from a chinese or south american factory?
>>2796996If I had to choose between dishwasher and extra cabinet, I'd choose dishwasherhalf of my shit is sitting there anyway
>>2797165this, it's like a cabinet that cleans your dishes anyway. if I had 2 dishwashers I'd need 0 cabinets, just take clean dishes from one and put dirty dishes in the other until the clean one is empty and the dirty one is full. then just start the full one and repeat.
>>2796354this actually made me angry
>>2796815Good source of iron.
>>2796996>sacraifcedid you make a thread on /wsr/ recently?...
>>2797347the paper roll is so far away thats juat cruel
>>2797263You may want to try therapy.Or meditation or something.Becoming emotionally invested in a photo of someone else's poorly-renovated kitchen, which otherwise has zero impact on your life, seems like an unhealthy response.
>>2797169I'm tempted to do this.
>>2797072the fact they're actually designed to shoot out the back like that...
>>2797417That's part of the experiment.
>>2797347It'd be funnier if there was like a remote controlled retractable wall. Wait for someone to go use the shitter, click the switch, it's showtime folks!

>>2798274>I saved $500 doing it myself!>What do you mean the city's condemning the stairs and now it'll cost me $10,000 if I don't get it redone correctly?
>>2796929I was looking at rental houses today and saw a toilet-shower-toilet layout, listed as 1 1/2 baths.
>>2798092In Edinburgh there is (was?) a house where the stairs were purposefully built uneven, so if someone unfamiliar with them was trying to go up during the night, they'd trip. Sort of a burglar alarm.But I've only ever seen a pic or two, of this one fragment. So maybe it's just made up. But I still think about it sometimes.Maybe that house is someone who really doesn't like getting bills in the mail?
>>2796521Take a razor knife and cut that shit right out of your house. You might be able to bleach and dehumidify the studs but expect to cut those too.
>>2798463You see that is a lot of old New England homes.

OC from my house.

>>2798991I don't get it, there's clearly enough space for a wall and there's a vent there. If you sealed it off, you could put a toilet in there too.

>>2799438>Illegal bathroomyou need a licence to have a bathroom? what third world country do you live in? do they throw you in jail if you have a bathroom or something?
>>2799438>illegal bathroomthat's a ten yard penalty and an automatic first down
>>2799479Did some googling and illegal bathrooms appear to be a thing in a.o. new york. Apparently you are not allowed to have a shower or bath in a basement there.
>>2799493People kept putting illegal rentals in basements so they banned all sorts of it. A bunch of people got killed when they couldn't escape during the floods.
>>2798475marisa kirisame fears that building
>>2799538Yeah because she's a womanlet so this is like climbing Mount Everest for her>>2799016Holy shit
>>2797169Stayed in a place like this for work, was a communal kitchen worked great
>>2799568You know how when you're rushing home to go to the bathroom, and the closer you get to your door the more urgently you have to go?Well this person obviously didn't make it once, and lost it on the stairs outside their front door.This is a logical solution to prevent that from happening again.

>>2798696Enclose it, there is plenty of space for 3 cannabis plants with good dispersion. Make a passthrough in the wall for ducting pipe where one end at the top is creating a vacuum, put the channel blower downstairs in the basement or somewhere where it doesn't make noise. Prima Klima Carbocone filter for zero odor. That's a good 350-400 grams there with little effort, maybe over 600 with full hydro, though for ease of growing I'd just hook it up with an autopot system.

>>2801071water hookup too
>>2801049This just seems like a situation where the stairs used to just continue straight, but some new piping had to be installed and to save space this was the solution for a healthy non-disabled man who seldom visits the basement

>>2803250I was once sent to investigate why internet/Wifi wasn't working at some rich person's house. The dumbfuck electrician had run one Cat 5E to each room, split four pairs into an RJ45 jack, then the other two pairs to phone jacks.

>>2804173Nigger have you never seen the steep stairs on ships and in industrial settings? They're just a safer ladder.
>>2804179No, honestly. So you use them like a ladder, with your chest towards the steps? Do you hold on to the steps with your hands too?
>>2804180They have rails (you should be holding the sides of a ladder and not the rungs anyway). I tried to come up with a gif but couldn't find anything. You have almost certainly seen a film with someone using such a staircase.

>>2803250>>2803251Perhaps I should illustrate it better. A fire is perhaps the best thing that could have happened there, if it just broke completely every grounded device would have become live. WHY IN THE HELL it was wired like that I have no idea because there is a separate earth wire already! But that got used as L3 instead!
>>2795783 >>2795900 >>2795917 >>2801071i don't see anything wrong with it. if there's no where else to put the fridge you basically have to do that

>>2804374>no where else to put the fridgeThat's exactly the problem.
>>2804612That's not that bad. I mean I hate L shaped counters like that and the faux wood finish is ass but the shelving thing is almost clever.
>>2804630I think the "abomination" is more that they had to add an awkward support column in the middle of the countertop instead of just having cabinets suspended from the ceiling or spanning the entire countertop.
>>2801547Multilevel boats have stairs like this.

>>2804889Boomers let a bunch of browns in to fill out construction crews so they could get to the next 1k sq ft breakpoint instead of helping their children
Just had to replace my breaker box and the electrician that did it said it was the hardest box replacement he's ever done.There were 9 completely unlabeled and randomly placed shared neutrals (one of which was 4 circuits sharing a neutral), 2 breakers had a pair of circuits run out from them that had to be separated (one of which was was also part of the mess of shared neutrals somehow), like all the grounding in the house (where it exists cause half the house was ungrounded 3 prongs with no GFCIs) was done through metal conduits so they all had to be bonded, there were 2 20A and a 30A breaker on circuits only rated for 15A, a 40A on a circuit rated for 30A, and a 15A on a circuit rated for 20A, the wire between the thermostat and the HVAC was run through the box for literally no reason so it had to be cut and reconnected during the install, and the box had to be replaced in the first place because it was some ancient frankenstein combination fuse and breaker box that nobody would ever insure where it uses breakers for everything but the main disconnect that was a fuckhuge quadruple fuse you had to manually rip out.The new box has almost every breaker under a handle tie.And they didn't even have to deal with the MULTIPLE uncapped live wires (one of which was just hanging down from the middle of the garage ceiling) and all the tangles of 3 to 5 wires connected with nothing but a twist, a gigantic glob of somehow still liquid rubber and some electrical tape elsewhere in the house I've found while doing 50+ outlet replacements (most of which I did before I even found out about the shared neutrals) among other shit (you can bet your ass a bunch of wires are the wrong color and I found every which way something can be incorrectly wired except ground to neutral).Can an entire house be an abomination? I'm legitimately surprised this thing never caught fire. This shit was originally wired "professionally" ffs.
>>2805173>Implying 90% of these aren't "I can do it I don't need no damn contractor" white guy energy
>>2804345If this is a janky way to get easy access to your house's third floor from outside, that's pretty cool. If this is a janky way to turn a normal house into a multi-story apartment because the non-rich are no longer allowed to own a house or property, whoever did this shall die.
>>2805509This looks like just doing what they could with the awkward ancient building.
>>2805519B-but /pol/ said it was abominación material
>>2805646Look at the high windows. That's halfway underground. Probably New England.
>>2805665>Probably New Englandit literally says chicago in the image

>>2805177You didn't pick this shit up when you first inspected the domicile?
>>2799016That's a theater. I've seen random doors like that and they do I serve a purpose but I've forgotten why.
>>2799479Well, yeah, it has to be up to code standards.
>>2805476As miserable as it looks, at least it seems like it's usable. Maybe could've swapped the shower and toilet locations to make it look less narrow.

>>2799445There are numerous accounts of Jesus of Nazareth; his life, death and eventual ressurection. Flavius Josephus is one source and another came from Chinese historians who recorded a comet which hung in the sky for more than 70 days (star of Bethlehem). vid relatedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWLSX04Upig
>>2799479Don't know about that other anon who said it's not allowed to have a bathroom in a basement, but in many places, to add a bathroom you will need a construction permit, have plans reviewed by the city and have an inspector on site during and after construction. City taxes will then take into account the additional bathroom. It could also mean an increased insurance premium, and if you have a mortgage the bank might not be happy to hear that you have diy'd work without pulling permits. If the owner sold the house as is without having declared the additional bathroom, potential buyers will definitely notice the discrepancy. Retroactive permitting is often more expensive and might trigger a whole house value reassessment.

>>2806027That's part of an in-wall extension cord/wall outlet relocation kit. It isn't a suicide cord and is explicitly allowed under NEC 400.10(A)(11).It's a similar idea to extension cords you'll see mounted in book cases. Not everybody wants to install a new code compliant clock outlet somewhere awkward.
>>2806025>you've gained a little weight, man
>>2806033On a related note, if you've got any wall mounted book shelves and you aren't intimately familiar with them, either cause it's a new house or it's just a space you don't use that much, you should give them a once over for outlets/cords. I just recently found an outlet in the back of a record cabinet (noticed one of the slats had a cutout so it could be removed) below a bookshelf that had a brown cord connected to it that snaked up through a series of holes in shelves to a little triple outlet connected in the side of the magazine rack I never noticed before cause it was shoved up against the wall and behind a slight lip and the cord was in the back of a dark cabinet and stapled up against the walls and ceilings so it never stood out.Unfortunately it's so old it only takes non-polarized plugs, so it's not gonna get much use.
>>2805681i like boobies
>>2798099>A fire?>In a waterpark?
>>2806036You can't just polarize it?
>>2806033Oh and if you touch it do you die or does it just trip the breaker?
>>2805962Has that been done IRL?
>>2806102There's no power in that unless you plug an extension cord into it. Think of it as a power inlet, not a power outlet.
>>2806102>Oh and if you touch it do you die or does it just trip the breaker?It's like the plug on a corded weed whacker or hedge trimmer
This count?
>>2806110Oh wait, so there's two of them and one plugs into an extension chord that goes to the outlet and the other plugs into an extension cord that goes to the appliance/thing that needs to be powered?
>>2806101>You can't just polarize it?The thing's fucking ancient. If I'm gonna do anything with it but ignore it until I need that outlet for something it can't service, it's replace it with a power strip. I'm not sticking a new fucking female end on a fucking 60 year old extension cord to save a buck and some light drilling.To be clear, by non-polarized, I mean it only has 2 tiny holes on the outlets on it, as in you literally can't stick polarized plugs into it because the neutral side is too fat.>>2806102>It isn't a suicide cordIt's literally just a fucking extension cord like the orange ones you have in your garage. That's the male end. The other end is female.>>2806141Yes, although they're used to hide cords so the other end is more likely to just be connected to the device's cord , not a second extension cord.Like say you wanted to hang a screen near your ceiling between two outlets. Rather than running an extension cord to it in front of the wall, you install one end of that thing behind the tv, tuck the wires behind it, then install the other end near an outlet, and connect it to an outlet.I cannot stress this enough, it's literally just a hidden extension cord. It only looks ridiculous cause you're seeing just one end.

>>2806270>>2806110>>2806027Does anybody have a pic of the female version of that? I want to show my electrician friend who's never heard of that type of outlet.
>>2806376This should either be the same or a similar model, but they come in a variety of shapes and installation systems including some that let you run AV and other cables through your wall too.
>>2806384Checks out. Thanks, friend!
>>2806374>Couldn't be the worst of your problems if your house is over 60 years old anywayLolno. We're renovating the house to sell it and I've already almost died several times between the shoddy electrical work and the top step on the ladder to the attic snapping 2 of its 4 connections while I was standing on it and trying to twist me off it.This was me>>2805177The worst problem is probably going to be the broken well, the basement flooding, or doing the floor in the room with the pool table that can't be disassembled without then needing a new slate.>>2805723>You didn't pick this shit up when you first inspected the domicile?Inspected? The house was built for (and designed partially by) my grandfather. I doubt its ever undergone a professional top to bottom electrical inspection.Unfortunately the family's had terrible luck with electricians.The contractors working for the team that built it got caught installing 3 prong outlets without grounds in a bunch of rooms halfway through (and even after they were forced to start installing grounds put in 2 prongs over them just to be dicks) and seem to have fucked up a ton of other shit in the original build not even counting the standard corner cutting at the time under archaic regs. The electrician that redid one of the bathrooms after it had a problem had no god damn idea what he was doing and wired it wrong so the fan and heater both came on at once when either switch was flipped. The ones that redid the kitchen managed to disconnect the grounds from a circuit in there. An electrician that replaced a burned up outlet for my mother lied to her that the house would need a complete rewire to install GFCI outlets. The ones that installed the motion light out back left a live wire lying on the casing for ceiling light they stole power from. Live wire was hanging from the garage ceiling by somebody after a motion light there was removed. Oh, and the breaker directory was an absolute incomplete mess.
>>2806395Well, you haven't burned it down yet. Best of luck. How much longer?
>>2803251Balcans?
>>2806447>Well, you haven't burned it down yet.If I had we'd probably get a better insurance payout than the house will sell for even after the renovation hilariously.>How much longer?As far as electrical jobs, we have to fix the well, rip out a couple loose wires, inspect the attic for any weird electrical nonsense (the house had powered roof vents at one point allegedly and I'd be shocked if any electrical work up there is in good condition let alone compliant with current code), install 8 GFCIs and 2 regular outlets, rewire the storage room, add some conduits to some 240V lines, install a new light fixture and replace 6 more, label some wrong colored wires, pretty up the breaker box, and replace the god damn buggy garage door button. On top of probably a couple months of other work.Thankfully I'll have more professional help with some of this because I am so burnt out on this shit. I knew nothing about home wiring when I started working on this and so far I've had to replace 7 light switches, rewire 2, replace ~57 of the ~85 outlets in the house, rewire 3, rip out a motion light, replace 3 light fixtures, repair 2, remount 1, replace the bulbs in 2, rip out a loose wire, and I spent a period of hell figuring out what the fuck was going on with this fucking combination heater/vent/light fixture that was wired incorrectly, had nonsense wire colors, and had no circuit diagram. Found that afterwards in its housing and not only does it show the heater pilot light wired as a nightlight which it never was, but it doesn't show the wires between 2 of the 3 switches and the device so it would have been useless. As a bonus, the thing was on the exact opposite end of the house as the stairs, and the exact same end of the house as the breaker box in the basement. Every day is leg day.Legitimately the house fire was probably the better option.
>>2798991polished concrete to increases slipping plus a ramp so you can do tricks.
>>2805941i would have such a hard time not rolling a bowling ball down it.
>>2806546This is where mice make sacrifices to dark gods
>>2806510Is you wife helping at least or making you do all the shit?
>>2797072Imagine being the guy on the toilet at the far end, when other people are on the other toilets.You either have to crawl over shitting-in-progress people, or wait them to finish and hope no-one else comes in to take their place.Also, I see no toilet paper in this image.ALSO, what the hell is up with the floor? Ankle deep blood?
>>2799309A walled-off area would forever cramp the space.With the curtain drawn, it gives a much better feeling of overall contiguous space
>>2806669I imagine you crawl in from above. It's a toilet ditch. If you have to pee, you just pee on it from above.
>>2806664I'm doing all this shit for my mother and sister, not my wife. She's trying to get the house ready to sell so she and my sister can split the cash. I'm physically disabled (muscle control issues) and live off my parents' dime.My mom said she could have the electrician deal with anything I don't feel comfortable doing, but when I said *I* had to do all that shit, I meant *I* had to do all that shit. My mother's project lead and helped me shop for parts and track shit, helped pry off a rusted on box cover, and helped me wire the fucking heater/fan/light thing after my fingers went numb working on it. My dad helped get a couple switches and outlets in cramped boxes and helped hold shit while I was working on some of the fixtures. My sister helped map the house's breakers and my mother helped doublecheck the new box. And my mom cut a couple holes bigger so I could get outlets in and both my parents helped drill holes in ~7 piece of junk ancient boxes that didn't have screw holes for grounding pigtails since I can't use power tools because the sound aggravates my pseudo seizures (which has made avoiding the other work in the house fun). Other than that I've been on my fucking own.
>>2806808almost thought it was a ham radio antenna setup for a second
>>2806741Well, you sound like a stubborn bastard at least (in a good way). Don't let it burn ya out, fella. It's only a house.
>>2798475That looks antisemitic AF
>>2795723Oh my fucking god theres like 10 thousand different shower heads out there. How hard is it to find one that just goes straight??
>>2806809Could you hook a lead onto it and make it into one?
>>2807220I think the overspray is the best part
>>2807220That's an escape way, it's there so you aren't jumping all the way from the third floor in a fire.The paint job's pretty funny, though.
>>2807260Anyone not retarded comes up with a ladder instead of an incomplete staircase. Hell, even just a fucking pole. Easier and cheaper. The stairs are the worst option by literally every metric. And I think you are retarded as well for thinking that that is the why of the image.
>>2807265>Literally no sign of missing stairs connecting to ground>No ladder connection>Goes to a windowWhat the fuck is it for in your mind then, huh?
>>2807278What thread are we in, Anon?
>>2807280It was built for a purpose, even if it wasn't executed well, what do you think it was?
>>2807284>what do you think it was?retarded
>>2805690Is that a mail slot at the bottom of the door?
>>2806808Wtf am I looking at?
>>2807265>Anyone not retarded comes up with a ladder instead of an incomplete staircaseYou can fall off a ladder.Also, for all you know there's some local ordinance that says all bedrooms on 3rd floors or above must have external stair access to lower floors in case of fire and this is just malicious compliance.
