Spelled correctly this timeYou guys know the drill, as long as it's terrible, post it
>>2868906shut up, this is pure soul
>>2869036it would have been if it was two tiles thick so you wont see the underside
>>2868906When you do this, you're supposed to have a factory edge outIt's literally 10 more seconds on the wet saw and then you don't have to worry about someone bleeding out on the jagged edge
>>2869058If you look closer, they also hacked the hell out of the wall tiles. I find it extra funny because it makes me think he figured he could just cut the lower tiles, using the edge of the upper ones, then realized it wasn't going to be anywhere near level and cut them while on the wall.
>>2869173what does this do?
>>2869080>leveled to a 0>soap slides off when wet anyway
>>2869179The wood in supposed to sit into the bracket...
>>2869253That'd be the wrong application for an angled rafter. I think that was the joist plate and someone just installed it there, possibly an error or scrap piece. Likely cheaper to leave those brackets on than to pay someone to rip them off.
>>2869187What's wrong with this?
>>2869408NTA but its just odd having 5 tiny windows on that elevation. Why not use 4 normal windows? fwiw I grew up in a house that had fake windows on the west elevation because the builder didn't want too much evening sun heating up the house. Because you don't want too much heat in a Michigan winter I guess? Parents re-did the siding and removed the fake windows. They were just fake on the 2nd story bedroom walls, the bedrooms had north and south windows.
>>2869408Weird windows. But I really don't like that elect. service lying on the roof like that.
>>2869436>>2869463I don't know you guys. I kindda get it. Putting full sized windows would require reframing and sealing etc..., with these you just cut out the holes, caulk and slot the glass panes in, and boom, a whole other wall of natural light. It looks weird because it interrupts the shingled pattern of the siding, but it would look at home on a brick facade or concrete.Not abomination, more quirky house up the hill.
>>2869468>Not abomination, more quirky house up the hill.unfortuantely thats like half the pics posted in this thread. They're not necessarily diy abominations, just "huh, thats odd".
>>2869170I don't think it counts as an abomination if the absurdity comes from damage.
>>2869187>>2869408>What's wrong with this?absolutely nothing, my cousin john stupid built it and we are very proud of him
>>2869605yer John is alright he just did up my bathroom its great
>>2869080I always cut the tile below when I do thisYou need about the space on the left cuz the angle but the space on the right allows that thing to just slide out if you pull on it
>>2869179Makes you disqualified for insurance
>>2869573I want to hate this but I feel like a well done hidden or vertical drain would be a huge flex
>>2868906fuck is that why I couldn't find it in the catalog? been looking for this thread for weeks lmao
>>2869709Probably not even that. It seems to be a shed unless you know a lot of people that keep firewood in their attic.
>>2868906WAIT I JUST NOTICED IT'S *NOT* EVEN SPELLED CORRECTLYHOW DID YOU MANAGE TO FIX IT AND YET FUCK IT UP IN A DIFFERENT WAY
>>2869758>HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO FIX IT AND YET FUCK IT UP IN A DIFFERENT WAYin a way i feel like that's ultimately the spirit of DIY, isn't it?
>>2869170Somone obviously crashed into it.
>>2868906are these things installed with a tilt so they drain? when done correctly of course
>>2869826If you get an actual soap shelf the surface of the shelf isn't level. You don't have to do anything funky with it, you just install it so the edges of the shelf are flush with the walls of the shower.
>>2869173it'll last longer than you'll be alive
>>2869826Another example.
>>2869835>>2869839thanks I figured there had to be one with some kind of hole. If I were to make one I would consider tilting into the wall and drilling/curring a small hole in what would be the corner, but not sure if that would look good.
>>2869080Always good to see a guy who'll just eyeball some shit, cut a couple of times and fuck measuring anything because numbers are for nerdsA true craftsman
Woodstock, Georgia and surrounding town have lots of houses like this, many far worse. At some point in the 80s or 90s, it was quite popular in that area to put on siding at a angle and use lots of diamond, trapezoid, or hexagon shaped windows.
>>2870057>>2870058no issue hereif it works it works
>>2870070what? my head hurts looking at this
>>2870080Apartments have a roof balcony, so to give roof access they put the stairs outside to maximize indoor space. Honestly, don't hate it aesthetically
>>2869759Have to do it every time now. "Abominatios" is kind of funny though.
Why is it when I refill these torch lighter the flame goes to weak shit?Are these filled with propane?
>>2870097Forgot pic
This is my couch control.. it won't work unless I hit it. Took it apart, now it won't work at all.If I short the contact,I get sparks.I don't know much about electrical. What are these switches?
>>2870070This one is cool until you have to paint all of this.
>>2870108More percussive fixing fixed it.
>>2870000So now we're catering to meth-head, copper thief porn sector of the market
>>2870001If that's a vent this is fine.
>>2869173I really hope this is just a lean-to wood shed and not part of an actual house.
>>2869187>>2869408>Ahoy Matey! x5
>>2870091Looks more like townhouses to me, this likely also puts the front door out facing something more pleasant to look at while hiding the garage entrances.
>>2870097>>2870099Aside from that I don't think those are refillable, I'm pretty sure most lighters use butane.
>>2870000hey, this is my factorio spaghetti but in real life
>>2869573
>>2870001>plumbers drills through support beams>electricians drills holes through pipingswho to blame for this? the foreman?
>>2870222you assume this wasn't all done by one dude
>>2870060The second one is PEX on a gas line. The first looks like copper couplings on PVC. They may work for a short time, but will fail.
>>2870133No it's not fine.
>>2870242nah it works
>>2870273ok dude i know you're spamming your entire folder but some of these aren't bad or funny
>>2870275This is epic and phonefag (You) is a faggot
>>2870072Please understand marrets are expensive.
>>2870280>Where are the bodies Garth?
>>2870297I like it, but I know most would hate it.
>>2870246Not sure if this counts as an abomination; yeah it cost extra for all those extra fittings, but they use bendy straws now for p-traps.
>>2870302I know we're messin with yuzu where you would usually doodoohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbGchfT3yMs
>>2870287There's nothing wrong here. The PEX has some give to be pulled out of or pushed into the wall. It's installed that way so the PEX has enough give to attach (or replace) the shut-off valve.
>>2870261This is actually incredible functional; it makes the domicile's speed, range and distance incredibly difficult to calculate for the HOA
>>2870384Imagine thinking that could happen in a neighborhood with an HOA. As much as boomers and renters like to hate on HOAs, they prevent bullshit like that house.
>>2870133No, now it's venting into the house.
>>2870271AI>>2870267I'd live there.
>>2870385>As much as boomers and renters like to hate on HOAs, they prevent bullshit like that house.Boomers, especially Karens, fucking love HOAs because they "keep values up" and drive out non-conformists. HOAs that are for a single-family home neighborhood are bullshit that originate from early redlining/mass post war developments with straight up racist bylaws.For condos/townhomes where it's actually used for the upkeep of the shared structure and facilities? An HOA makes sense. For most neighborhoods? It's usually just a way for Karens to have a power trip over minor bullshit.The builder kept to an interesting striping theme with the disparate colors in a way that looks nice.
>>2870291nothing wrong with a saddle tap. especially since thats just a vent pipe
>>2870415>straight up racist bylaws.Now that the election is over, you can't get paid to spout this shit anymore. Nobody cares. And yes, every neighborhood including those has at least 1 person who thinks they should let their grass grow to 4 feet tall, be able to paint their house rainbow colors, and generally piss off their neighbors because they hate everyone around them for some reason. HOAs are because theres a certain group of individuals who feel they MUST express their individuality at all times by being obnoxious shits. Its big altima energy in house format. Conform and be normal, quit trying to be quirky for updoots.
>>2870093Is that how it is said in Spanish? That would make a lot of sense.
>>2870424>Now that the election is over, you can't get paid to spout this shit anymore. Nobody cares.Getting mad about an objective historical fact?HOAs are for boring suburbanites who hate individuality.
>>2870410wow you are bad at this. go back into your mother's womb as you are underdeveloped.
>>2870426>HOAs are for boring suburbanites who hate individuality.Correct. Because they don't want some jackass painting their house a hideous color making it impossible to sell if they ever wanted to move. Or making their lawn a junk yard. Go be an individual away from normal society.
>>2870429>Hurr suburbanites are "normal" durrYou don't know what normal is in your safe, WASPy conformance.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONj9cvHCado
>>2870429if you think your neighbor's property is an eyesore that's your problemwhat HOAs should be about is pooling resources to buy things the whole street can use, or preventing your neighbors from damaging your own propertycry me a fucking river about "oh no my property value will go down 2% because every house doesn't match"
>>2870429>making it impossible to sellyah thats not an issue in my west coast liberal utopia. dinky shithole houses sell for 500k in 15 minutes with above asking offers regardless of condition>making their lawn a junk yardcry about it. more effective than 2am yardpops at keeping the taxes down
>>2870433>if you think your neighbor's property is an eyesore that's your problemIt is my problem. I have to look at the dump everyday. Its all of the neighbor's problems because they have to see that fuckin dump of a property. Its why HOAs exist to enforce rules to make sure it doesn't turn into some abomination of a property. >what HOAs should be about is pooling resources to buy things the whole street can useLike what? Some nice flowers at the neighborhood entry? A little playground? Mayhaps a walking path through a nearby wooded area? >You don't know what normal is in your safe, WASPy conformance.Stay in the ghetto then. We don't want you leaving there either. Enjoy the lack of safety and nobody caring what their house looks like.
>>2870435unironically yes to all of that
>>2870433>what HOAs should be about is pooling resources to buy things the whole street can useCities do this better, but suburbs like when HOAs do it instead because it saves budget.The "eyesore" thing is also really subjective, and usually covered by city codes as well on genuine problems, like letting the yard become overgrown or letting disrepair continue until the house reaches a state of needing condemnation. HOAs usually focus on really stupid bullshit like parking space usage, putting up signs for a party, having a tree, having any kind of color outside of a limited, boring palette, growing a flower garden, and other shit. The kind of people who want to run HOAs are usually absolute Karens.What If I want a low-maintenance landscape of native plants instead of a lawn? It looks way better, smells better, uses far less water, and doesn't require constant mowing.
>>2870438I don't support HOA in any formif a neighbor is causing harm to other properties then law enforcement should have jurisdictionif your only issue is how clean or uniform the neighborhood looks then get fucking bent
>>2870448The fact that an HOA can foreclose on you for petty fucking reasons is really fucked up.
>>2870261>>2870384Kek, fucking Dazzle camo on a house. Brilliant, I love it. Needs a proper mast and a gun director on the roof.

>>2870262>hose clamps
>>2870274That just looks like a recently installed door where a window was, and they haven't gotten the siding fixed or trim done yet...

>>2870268Good thing water heaters never go bad ever. Couldn't have just put a cheap door in for full access, that would have been far too hard.
>>2870275If you're into that kind of shit, it's neat. Not my thing but at least it's not grey upon grey upon grey.
>>2870288The porthole is useless but since it opens all is forgiven since it probably makes for a nice breeze. Especially so if there are two windows to allow a cross breeze.
>>2870538Seems like it'd be really hard to clean, though.
>>2870543Agreed, although the kind of person who is into that might just never clean it.
>>2870001my brother is an electrician and he tells me this is absolutely normal behavior if the plumbers are allowed to install the pipes first

>>2869187i've honestly given up on expecting anything in terms of exterior looks on these mcmansion type buildings with cheap plastic siding and generic roofingthe windows probably look good from the inside, so thats all that really matters
>>2870250jesus christ how many drugs do you have to take in order to come up with something this profound
>>2870257this looks like shit but couldn't this be fixed fairly easily? put some panels over it to cover the fuck up and plaster it
>>2870261i heard some companies do this but with roof tile colors since its cheaper, where they have a bunch of leftover tiles from other builds in various colors that they have no use for and offer to install them into a new home for a lower price, i wonder if the same thing is happening here?
>>2869730Last thread is basically >>2859139
>>2869999My work kinda does this, there's portable cameras for watching the robots and each one has duct tape and cardboard to fine tune the angle lol

>>2870245Keep it to your own house and don't give hack advice to anyone else.>>2870424HOA's are for the walking dead.

>>2869408It's insanely ugly.

>>2870261That's some soul right there.
>>2869173Those are joist hangers being used on rafters instead of hurricane ties.>>2870145Even for a lean-to it's useless. The bird's mouth cut will hold plenty. Rafters aren't going to move laterally especially with sheathing down. Hurricane ties are just small twisted straps that tie the rafters to the top plate. On a ridge beam, you would use straps or a hanger that looks like OP but with a swiveled bottom.The ones in OP are upside down. They could be used if he cut a notch in the rafters but the manufacturer of the hangers will not approve such use — not that the person who did that seems to care about it.
>>2871384>how much that WOULD weighBout tree fiddy
>>2871384There’d probably be about a cubic meter of stone in that which is already about 3-4 tons or about 2 SUVs give or take.

Dilapidated buildings is a matter for the building department or fire department. Most municipal agencies have some sort of enforcement power. The thing is, they only use that power to address issues affecting community health and safety.
