Setting up an office, once the new floors are in. There was a flood...Looking for advice. As yoy ca. See it isnt a huge space. Roughly 195cm wide, 220cm deep on the short wall, 300cm on the long wall. I'm planning for an 80 centimeter deep desk, because my setup is two 32 inch monitors.I'm going to put in automatic drop door sweeps on this door and another door leading to the hallway, as well as ceiling the gap around the door to sound proof the doors as much as possible.Depending on how the sound is in the room if I need additional soundproofing I was going to get some thick MDF sheets improp them up against the walls, covering the inside with that triangle acoustic foam to stop the reverberations. If additional soundproofing is not needed I will just attach the acoustic foam to cardboard or thin mdf and attach it to the wall.I don't want sound coming in or out and I need to have good audio quality for a work from home job.Does anyone have any ideas of what to do to create a good home office? Maybe I could get some kind of grow lights and have Bonsai trees in there?
The shape is a bit odd, that's a built-in in closet for a guest room>>2971318
should i put my collection in this office?
Don't replace the floor it will flood again. Put up more princess stickers. Mount cheap ass $5 walmart pillows to the walls for sound dampening (better than overpriced chinese relabled packing foam audiopedos buy) decorate with strobe light blow up doll and decorate new soft wall with markers. Purchase ULINE H-9628-LAM for desk and NSN#: 7110-01-630-5164 for chair. >>2971796Awesome collection dude! I love you. Drill hole though and mount to wall with step bolt.
>>2971321>The shape is a bit oddyou don't say, the entire office is on its side
I’m putting together a tent sauna, but my current settup won’t go above 125F. It’s a Morzh tent, and I’m trying to reuse my US stove caribou 18 stove, but even though with the rocks the steam is nice, its heat is inadequate. It’s honestly inadequate for my 9x13ft canvas tent in the winter also, so I was wondering if any of you have ever used a larger hot tent stove in a sauna (like a winnerwell nomad stove). It looks like I might need to get two purposes built stoves, one for long steady burns in the tent, and another for fast intense burns in the sauna. Though obviously if I can avoid the added expense of a second stove it would be nice. Else, maybe some tips for getting a hotter fire? I’m just burning fir I cut last spring.

Whats a sauna
>>2971391I don't know shit, so take it all with a bucket of salt.Heat in heat out. Too low temp means that either you are not supplying enough heat, or that too much heat is escaping. No idea what that tent you are using is or how insulated it is, or much about saunas in general, but afaik they are heavily insulated too keep heat inside.Dunno much about wood, but I heard that best wood to burn is hard broadleaf seasoned for 3+years to make sure its bone dry.In order to get hotter burn, consider trying charcoal once or twice, it may be enough to offset possible insulation problems and get your tent hot enough. It burns hot enough for smithing tho, so it should be fine. Maybe add a fan forcing air inside for even hotter burn or something, dunno.

What do you guys know about chemical metal etching?
>>2971916You'll put your eye out
>>2971916I think chrisfix on jewtoob did a video on how to chemically etch tools that looked pretty easy to do...
>>2971916You can do it with a 9v battery and some cotton. Lots of guys who make knives do that way, so there's a lot of videos explaining the process.
>>2971916i am a dental student, the same acid thats used to etch teeth (hydrofluoric acid) for composite filling etches aluminum surfaces to a dull surface
>>2971916i put some concentrated vinegar through my dishwasher empty, then the next load all my metalware came out super shiny

My basement leaks during heavy rainfall so I'm guessing there's cracks in the foundation. Is this fixable myself? Do I have to dig outside and fix it from there too?
>>2971172doesnt fix hydrostatic pressure. if you have enough water that its coming through your walls, sealing it off is gonna risk damaging the foundation, you need to remove it or make sure it doesnt even end up there in the first place.
>>2970496if its not a big leak you can you waterproofing paint and then fix your gutters. that pic looked like my basement i used zinsser, no more problems or humidity
>>2970610yes this is the proper way to do itif op wants, there are large membranes you can apply to the inside of the basement, idk how good they are though
>>2970610>>2972186Neither of these designs answer the most important question: Where does the water drain too?
>>2972205it goes into a sump pump

>>2971553
>>2971949It's all gonna be ok fren. My hot take on it is if shit really is going down and the economy is tanking, then I might as well trade my fiat bux for some good steel and iron while the gettin is good and the funny money still has some value. >>2971962As a land owner, nothing pisses me off more than people that litter.

Well I made a thing today. Started with a fiskars paper corrugator, but it wasn't sturdy enough to corrugate a beer can. Knocked out the axle stubs and replaced them with some 1/4" drill rod and then drilled the end plates and built the frame. Little bit of lapping compound got everything running smoothly. Cleaned that out, greased it up, welded a plate top and bottom and added a 1/4" socket so I can run metal through with a ratchet. Works bretty gud. Top piece is a beer can ran through once. Bottom piece was run through once, then turned a 1/4 turn and run through again just to see what it'd do.
>>2970489>What are you planning to make with the corrugated metal?When I see corrugated metal, I think moldable heatshields.
>>2970912can you make something that bends in both directions like a hose
>>2970560im really supposed to believe this is how these things are made
>>2970798just make it as big as the sheet and use a hydraulic press then it's time efficient
>>2970368dang that is cool nice work
>a piece of the sink siphon is leaking, need a new connecting piece>store doesn't sell them individually, have to buy a new siphon set>install the new part>now the top of the siphon is leaking
>>2972058Sounds like you didn't clean the parts properly or you fucked up the seals (if there are any).
If you have a successful from home business, share your business plans with anons that want break free from the wagie matrix.
>>29693631) Find out where the affluent suburbs are in your area.2) Find out when the councils are picking up discarded furniture.3) Rent a van on the day before pick up and go pick out the best bits you can4) re-sell it on marketplace with a little to no refreshment5) Profit
>>2969363>>2971604Also, retirement homes/villages. Keep an eye out on those. When a codger kicks the bucket the family usually throw away all the shit asap so they can sell the apartment. You can get a whole apartment of furniture in one spot.
>>2969363Not viable now, but my self-employment business model for 6 years was selling hardware kits on Etsy for homemade nerf blaster designs. I sold off the assets and tools to move overseas a few years ago and Etsy has turned itself into temu-lite so it's not a usable platform anymore. You would have to setup a web storefront with a different system like ecwid instead. Final year of operating the business I cleared $250k in revenue while having no employees and producing everything out of a shed in my backyard. The hobby has kind of fell off into the deep end though because manufacturers eventually caught up to the market demand for higher performance designs, so there's a lot more competition now. The hobby community also became a cesspool of drama and infighting too, so I'm glad I exited when I did.
>>2972003Kigurumi masks are still selling high on etsy though im not kurigamist lolIf opt for tindie though thats for makers and way less flooded
>>2972010yeah you'd know about that fucking disgusting kike
helphow do i level it out without it tipping
>>2971731The power switch, for one. And it looks like cast, so you can't weld it.
>has a picking eye on the top.>proceed to wrap it in a spiderweb of ratchet straps

Every time i buy a new tool i get a small rush of happiness but it is fleeting. Then shortly after i start looking for the next tool to buy. How do i overcome this? I really don't need any more tools at this point.
>>2971769I'm not quite to this point yet, but I have been given quite a bit of stuff over the years. I think most people are just glad it's not getting scrapped or re-sold...

>>2960797If you were going to build your own, what would you do differently from what you've done with work?
>>2970244Not the anon you replied to but a few things I'd do for building my own home is frame the whole house 2 x 6 redwood, I don't care how much it costs. Conduit runs instead of romex, all copper pipes no PEX microplastic shit. Metal roof. And plyboard on every single interior wall before drywall goes up, for shear strength, better sound isolation, and so I can hang anything on any wall without needing to find a stud
New place has a 27' X 40' foundation, with power, and plumbed w water and septic.Currently has a shitty shit I'm using to store wood on. And what's left of my Observatory. I think they used to keep a fifth wheel on there judging from the ruts they left in the lawn last year.Have always wanted to do my own timberframe in a hammerbeam design ~1500 sqftIt's near a property line but I'm not sure what offsets are allowed. There's already a building west of it that is about 4 ft from the property line so I'm assuming that's the allowable limit

>>2970378that's all goodexcept the copper>pexI RO my drinking water, simple as. pex is just fantastic in every other way
why no using bitcoin miners to heat cave?I got one of those 750W counter top water distillers and its comfy to heat a room as it makes a gallon in about 4 hours. OK, that works out to about 3x what "drinking water" costs at the vending machine but its DISTILLED and no lugging water, etc.Can a Bitcoin Miner also double as powerful desktop, or vice-versa?Avalon Q 90TH/s Bitcoin Miner by New Canaan - 18.6J/TH 1674W ASIC Miner, Ultra-Quiet Home Mining Crypto Machine, 110V-240V, Included Original US Power Cord in StockVisit the OEMGMINER Store5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (15)| Search this page50+ bought in past month$1,879.00 $1,879.00
>297167atesexohave you considered using your computer in the shower?
>>2971683and WTF about cooling? WTF do they call'em "Swamp Coolers" when seems they wouldn't do shit for cooling in humid swamp butt would work great in hot dry desert?No need to use clothes dryer in desert, just hang in closet with door open and it will also cool the house.
>>2971678Distilled water tastes like shit. I do like the idea of using waste heat for warming a place, but a Bitcoin miner won't likely pay off the difference between itself and a generic space heater over its useful lifespan. Remember, Bitcoin mining gets exponentially less efficient over time. >>2971906They are Called swamp coolers because they turn the house into a swamp.
>>2971678i think you can consider it a gambling machine cause technically you could mint a block or whatever with just your computer
I’m doing a remodel on my kitchen and had to go into the ceiling. Discovered the builder cut these holes into the joists. How in Gods name is this acceptable? These holes are huge.
>>2971808bruh, if your house is on fire, it's already a lost cause. it doesn't matter which one burns faster at that point, you lost the structure already.
>>2971820True, but it's definitely better if there's a little more substance to the structural components so I have a little more time to get my ass out before it collapses.
>>2971820That's not true.>house fire starts in kitchen by retard who cooks everything on HIGH>Frozen french fries, covered in frost, in overfilled, overheated, saucepan of sneed-Goyl>OH SHIDOHSHIDOSHID!!>Calls fire dept>They are there in 7 minutes>Kitchen is a loss, but rest of house, aside from some smoke damage is OK.Happens all the time with older homes pre-1930s.Modern homes? Yeah, you're right.I get why builders switched to gyp-some(intentional,) board over plaster, but homes where the interior walls were coated in a green scratch coat were a hell of a lot more resilient and fire/mold resistant.If you drive through, or just watch YT videos filmed in places that are now defunct, "ghetto" neighborhoods, you'll see a lot of houses that had fires, but are still standing.That said, I've also never met a more scammy group of people than disaster remediation companies.>Well, we're going to have to GUT everything and hire in the cheapest $12/hr.
