Any tips or tricks? It's taking way too long and I'm getting fed up trying to build this palletoid shed.
>>3002756And bouncing between Claude and 4chan isn't helping, I thought anon meant I should build a floor frame but the pallets are the floor frame, he just means the points where the pallets come together. Honestly it's really all just too late for that, every block is level with the master block now, it's just that the earth beneath it is unstable and I need tons of gravel which is precariously mixed in with other types of sediment and even when it is poured into the ground beneath the blocks, the surrounding area around every block that isn't the master block is either a hole, trench or built up soil...none of which are capable of staying in place, if I could have just got some gravel without this dog constantly interfering I probably would have each block layered enough to ensure it's sold and showed you guys just to make sure none of the facets of the earthwork are unstable long term.
>>3002754>why cuz that's how above grade structures are built on hillside terrain :)
>>3002759I think I'd just prefer to ensure each block is level with the master block and slap the pallets together rather than engineering the leveling artificially with joists... I'm not a skilled carpenter and this type of structure isn't able to manifest in a way where I'm not out of my element, I get just throwing in gravel so I'll TRY to stick with that but holy fuck I just can't be left alone. My burden weighs so heavily on me I'm paralyzed.
>>3002760I just need to tell people this, I have to get it off my chest. I also looked into the spiritual implication of a rattlesnake entering my land and hiding in wait, becoming a danger to my life because it bites me when I'm drinking off the vyvanse and I can't drive and could just pass out. It means that someone in my life is trying to sabotage me and I should beware. My brother knows I need to do this, he knows my stuff got destroyed by coyotes, but he wants to take up as much of my spare time regardless, particularly with a game I don't like because I find it boring but also because he and our babysitter wouldn't let me play it or go off and do my own thing, I think he remembers that, I think he just wants power over me and to make me suffer using his illness.
Have to spend the night with extreme caution due to the active rattlesnake, and deal with the loud motherfucking piece of shit generator cunts but tomorrow I have a plan that anons might not have expected. There are tons of flat rocks in the area that I will put under every block that isn't the master block, then I will layer with quarter-sized rocks mixed with soil to build each one up to the same level as the master block itself which needs a thin layer of gravelAfter that I will actually use half sized blocks on higher elevated areas so they still line up with the master cinder block even after refilling the trench/holes with layers of rock, soil and just a bit of gravel. I will layer all of them at the same time, then level them easily. Using the tiny slivers of time I have not exercising the dog/playing a shitty game with my brother to actually finish this and get the pallet shed finished/insulated so neither of us have to deal with putrid neighbors literally fucking trying to disturb my dog's sleep. Once all the building materials are out of the way of the site for the 10x20 shed kit, I can level it normally just using gravel by digging up the two gravel deposits that I actually have, probably starting with that first thing tomorrow. But I swear to God it's the same thing every day and now worse with my stupid brother starting this. The dog WILL need a morning walk, she WILL try to get in my way any time I use a tool, she WILL force me to take her on another walk, then she WILL fucking need to take a nap and not allow me to make any noise with my tools, then of course she WILL need another fucking walk, and another one in evening before she goes to sleep, each and every fucking time between getting in the motherfucking way for the entire time except maybe miraculously for a few minutes allowing the plan to be put into motion, it being just simple enough to do this.
What should I do here? I only have about 5 inches of clearance between the dryer and the wall, else the door is blocked. I looked into telescoping vents but I think I still don't have the necessary clearance and I want to avoid modding the door if possible.
They make sheet metal telescoping ducting for close clearance dryer installations. If you go this route you might have to trim it or otherwise modify it to make it fit your application exactly, and when you do get it to fit I'd recommend taping up all the seams with some foil ductwork tape in order to keep lint from leaking out of it. I've considered getting one of those magnetic connectors and attaching to my sheet metal duct in order to make it an easy to attach and de-tach thing for sliding the dryer out and cleaning behind it.
>>3001936>https://youtube.com/shorts/htcoIb2X2s0Funny how this critical part of the installation has nothing to do with the advertised product.
>>3001804holy shit OP are you new to appliances? you know you can route the vent thru the sides not just the back... look at the lower corner in that pic.. see that round cutout right there? you can remove that cover and literally route the vent thru that hole instead of out the back. and you dont need any fancy gadgets to connect it to the wall.
>>3002099Thank you, this is the best solution.
>>3001804>What should I do here?get a dryer that doesn't need it
How do you keep the water in these nigga from turning to manure without expensive micro-organisms that have to be replenished every other week?
>>3002574This. Even systems with drainage fields are supposed to be cleaned out periodically to stop the build up of solids in the tank.
>>3002617cisterns arent for sewage
>>3002615>>3002617It's for collecting rainwater, for watering the yard.
Pond UVC lamp?
>>3002684ok so why are you worried about it
Are you guys into sorting scrap metal and alloys? What's your source? Do you just dive into trash, or have an agreement with local business and just take broken electronics and cables from time to time?
>>3001766Cut them up to make plastic isolators, plastic washers, cut strips.out of them for plastic welding/repair. Etc. It's always handy to have some decent plastic stock kicking around among with thick rubber sheet and belting for different projects.
>>3001219Yeah it's way overengineered considering the plywood in the chairs regularly breaks from normal use by a 200lb person
>>3000064unsorted stained scrap istn worth much but its usually worth to sort it/ cut it up>last time got 0.1€/kgbrake discs were 0.27€/kg which makes a huge differenceclean aluminum scrap is also good, stuff like old brake calipers or suspension parts.I just cut the bushings/ ball joints open and knock them out with a hammer.I work a lot on cars and break all the scrap down to get the most out of it.Last time I got almost 100€ for 250kg of scrap parts and it was mostly steel and aluminum.I dont do it for the money but its hard to get rid of mixed trash in large quantities. When its seperated its much easier.
>>30025810.1 euro per kg. That sucks, I'm getting $0.1 per pound.>>3001412
>>3002636just hauled 3 tons from a cleanup on sat$95/ton and of course the place was a ghost town because the toothless scrappoes cant cover the gas at that price they werent even really wanted cast iron at any price and i saw the mountain of forklift counterweights had blackberries growing up their it so low grade cat definitely isnt moving at allyellow and red metal is still hot and the tallermechanico in front of me at non ferrous had a nice payday on stripped honda blocks and heads

How can I enhance cheap, knock off anime figures? I'm mostly concerned about random small painting errors. I know this is a really general question and I'm not experienced with figures but I'd be happy to read your suggestions
>>3001255That's because they did a stronger reselling/scalper thing this event. I remember seeing some social media post about how if you were caught buying for resale they were going to ban/escort you out.

(sorry for the shitty image)so as you can see my bag is kind of plain and basic, so I'd like a way to figure out how to sew an external pocket like shown in picrel, has anyone done this or would give a link or advice on how to? I don't know anywhere that just sells small external pockets like that and I wouldnt really know how to sew it onto there. The image was just an example on what id want and howd it would sort of look like and what im going for?

I inherited this. I want to refurbish it. How much work is it going to take to make it safe/usable? Does anyone have a guide that will spoon-feed me step by step instructions?
>>30023993M makes good sanding products as long as you don't buy the consumer bullshit they sell at Lowes/Home Depot.
>>3002377its not charcoal retard you use hard wood like oak or hickory or whatever the smokerfags are using these days
>>3002550They're literally called charcoal grills with offset smoker box, dipshithttps://www.homedepot.com/p/Royal-Gourmet-28-in-Barrel-Charcoal-Grill-with-Offset-Smoker-in-Black-CC1830F/301952661
>>3002553you could use charcoal if ur a nigger like you, but us hwites use hardwood.
>>3002373Get a steel brush for an anglegrinder and remove the rust and old paint. Spray with heat-resistant paint.Done.
Years ago, bought a house with a few acres. One acre was grass, had old, mud filled, busted impact sprinklers. Replaced them all with K-Rain rotors, and never really got even coverage. Brown areas and weird, green circles, despite theoretically good sprinkler coverageThis spring I decided enough was enough, and spent a bunch of money on Rainbird 8000 series rotors. Grass turned green within weeks.You get what you pay for, I guess

>>3000261Irrigation project complete
>>3000262nice, what's it do?
>>3001128It pulls in water from the stream to water my wife's plants. If we are away from the house I can still shut off the water without worrying about leaks or have to pay someone to water the plants. I have a submerged pump inside the 55 gallon pump that feeds the larger, visible pump (same type I use for circulating water in frog pond). In some initial testing I did, I found the larger second stage pump using a check valve to be unreliable. The 55 gallon drum and intake pipe buried in crushed stone keeps large debris from getting into the stream. I also have a 250 micron filter between the two pumps. I had issues when I tried using finer micron filters. I have a well so tried just using old well filters I would ordinarily throw out but they clog very fast. No issues with the coarser filter. I've since built a small covered shelter to protect the second stage pump from the rain. Alas one unforeseen consequence was the very small dam I built to raise the water level a smidge drew in bevers like flies to honey. But wrapping trees in chicken wire and using corrugated pipe to regulate the water level seems to have contained the worst of their tendencies. I won't have to go far if I want catfish now.

Hi /diy/, I want to put a small shed in my parents' back yard where I could put my PC and a bed because as of now I'm forced to share my room with two roommates and having no privacy is driving me insane. I'm too retarded to build a shed from scratch and I want it to be done as soon as possible so I've been searching for a budget kit. The Little Cottage Co. 8x8 ft value workshop shed seems like a good pick for this and judging by the reviews it's easy to assemble and the quality is decent.My plan is to lay a gravel base right next to the concrete patio and put the shed there. I live in AZ so AC is a must. I would have to insulate the shed and put some vents in. I have an exterior outlet there, would be roughly 8 ft away from the shed so maybe I could use a heavy duty extension cord to power my PC, a small AC unit and a lamp. I really want to avoid running a cord from my house's main panel, I'm no electrician and it sounds like a lot of work and electricity is scary.Aside from that the shed is designed to only lock from the outside. What could I possibly do to modify the door to be able to lock from the inside?? Please help.
>>3001767>multiple people live in their son's roomMaybe they just want to deter his behavior or gently convince him to move out.
>>3001509I need youI am looking into building an office grid setup. I am trying to figure out power. If I feed 96 DC volts to an inverter am I going to blow up the world? Feeding a fuse box 150 AC is fine right? Do I need something to like power it down?
>>2998030This guy has parents that own a house with a yard. Imagine that.
>>3002347OMG why is this so confusingIt should be like this, right?Solar panel>breaker>battery(ies)>inverter>breaker>appliances
>>2998030You got a loicense for that ADU?
Comfy thread
>>2988100>no smoke alarm>dying in a tiny pinebox (just run through the front door which is like 4 feet from you at any time)Well that’s on him
>>2988684Incredible, anon.
>>2988100>a tiny home between two housesWell there's your problem.>>3002315Isn't pine supposed to be somewhat resistant to fire or does the property of the wood change when its cut and treated?
>>2988073as a retard in the northeast is my only move to buy a plot of land and slap one of these bad boys on it?
>>3002463Maybe, but look up your laws on tiny homes, specifically the property taxes on tiny homes because in many states they just absolutely fuck you over in terms of property/home tax to the point you're actually better off just buying a home for the amenities or buying a trailer/mobile home/small RV.That is if you're looking to maximize your savings, and for some states if you put your tiny home on a trailer that can be towed all of a sudden it can be almost 50% cheaper to own.
Any idea on how to build my room around this comforter? I can post pics if needed.

Anyone here making their own tools or machines for hobbies where shit is either so niche nobody makes it or it's just 3x the price for no reason other than the low demand?I'm getting into Slot Cars because a lot of estate sales are making it cheap as hell again. But I've had to buy so much shit from 3d printers; a burnout battery pad, a gear/ axle ballancer, a tire and rim straightener, weights...So I started making stuff. I copied this vacuum box very easily so I can make bodies. What else can or should I reasonably make? Tire making machine?
>>3002395Speed doesn't work that way.
>>3002393Are you planning on doing injection molds with urethane or something else? Then you have to figure out out to get custom graphics or text on the tire walls so you can charge more money for custom tires.
>>3002400One easy way is to get rods of it and drill the hub diameter inside then a tool blade on a lathe outside.Buy they can be injection formed at home, I can look at that for sure. Many tracks have a no urethane rule because it leaves scum.I'd like to manufacture it all more or less in an effort to be a real part of the local scene. I enjoy the work and the details, and while I'm not opening an internet store I would like the be dude you go to for wild customs.

They laughed when I found milky broken quartz on my land and I started to dig, and then I kept digging....
>>3001824>How much milk does it yield?Depends on how hard you milk it.
>>3000608I got tons of those in my ground. Biggest I ever pulled out was round and almost knee high. Are they worth shit or what?>>3000660Worthless mhmkay>>3000719meh nah not on my land>>3001845never tried
>>3001858>Are they worth shitBust it up and pan it out is the only way to find out.
>>3001858You can sell them to superstitious wives of rich men.A along as it has the aesthetic. They like the disk shaped crystals.
now this is interesting. my land also has quartz, and seems to have a lot of it.>>3000730I just looked at pics of brecciated quartz and it looks like dirt lol.guess I'll have to pay attention next time

>be me>live in old commie style apartment block>notice weird smell in kitchen>discover unused water connection that wasn't sealed properly by previous tenant>remove seal completely>smells like rotting death, I nearly vomitWhat do? Is that normal? Do I have to tell the maintenance guy or do I just seal the hole? Will a standard plug from the hardware store stop the smell, or do I need a proper siphon?
>>3002067Do NOT do this. OP, get close to your free jenkum pipe and embrace the vapor of natural septic.

>>3002013i can tell you are forever virgin by the fact you think about trannies 24/7
grumble up a plastic bag, should be big enough it won't accidentally fall down the drainbut small enough you can fit it inside decentlycut it back flush and smother in silicone to seal upthat way if anyone ever needs to use it, it won't be miserable to restoreit looks like a tubular female but you'd have to cut open the wall to clarrify and get proper fittings
