Abomination ThreadFresh from a deranged namefag editionThis is a warning to everyone, if you do a custom construction, have an inspector come out every week to check up on the beaners.Semi related vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRuO62aNBEE
great location for your ac
>>2928400Lol. That namefag deserves the worst.
>>2928400All right here's what I found:>No way those boards will be able to support EF's burgeoning wife the next time she's pregnant with someone else's kid>The two posts in the front look like they're set right into the dirt>Those nails man, the fuck were they even aiming forIs that it? Or is there something else even worse that I'm missing?
>>2928417I'm not expert, but this is what I see so far.Undersized lag bolts in the corner supports that are placed too close to the edge of the beam.4x4 looking posts when they should be 6x6.Roof simply sitting on the posts, no strong ties, or notching. Can't tell how those are attached. At least the bottom is notched.What are all those vertical nails on the outside on the bottom frame? are those two boards nailed together? the right side looks like it's a single board.maybe it's the wind angle lens, there looks to be some sagging going on the deckroof soffit has some weird curve going on, again, could be the lens.
Tis but a scratch
i do not know what i should be looking at is it on the right the roof trestle connect to the interior roof trestle making a lever, an "S". so wind load on one pitch lifts the other roof?
>>2928400I don’t get it. Looks like the play house I built as a kid with my dad (apart from the fact that we did the sides out of wood, not plastic foil). >>2928550I don’t get it either. Looks more like a hoarder issue.
Home in AZ
>>2928550>Fridge >Tenant owned>Not includedOK, but are grandma's ashes on the windowsill part of the deal?
>>2930617So is the credit card on the counter.
>>2931434>battleshits
>>2931434honestly a pretty good shared bathroom imo
>>2928400>if you do a constructionFTFY
>>2928400I'm skilled interior, but I'd like to be more of a builder. I don't have an inspector's eye.Deck joists are spaced like ass and they didn't finish flash taping the zipboard. I'm not thrilled about how the beams just rest on posts.
>>2928400>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRuO62aNBEEGoing in. >3:14 vinyl siding, soffit, and trimIt's the cheapest stuff. Animals are going to get in eventually even if it's caulked. The video house is poorly done. Bugs set up shop behind it all year round. It fails after a few decades so you can replace it with something better if your house hasn't rotted. >lots of roofer and siding critiquesfair and expected>handrail blocking nonexistent deck>soil washing out under driveway>can't turn off stove gaslol>improper application of drywall mudNot enough coats or sanding. Some taping issues, but there are always framing or drywall hanging mistakes that are poorly corrected with mud. If they need higher quality finishers, they'll have to pay higher prices. This is some D R Horton type home so that won't happen. He should take a deeper dive on the mechanical. That's already two superficial errors on the gas and a furnace switch next to a light switch. There has to be more plumbing, hvac, electrical shoddiness. It won't be long before the doors rub or latch poorly. I don't trust any of the showers or wet areas until they're proven sealed.
>>2928406nothing wrong with it, blows right across the room and you won't be using the fireplace in summer anyhow, you could even use the fan to blow the heat across the room in winter.
>>2928415Tripfriends are the real heroes>tfw ol’ Beppu is trying to go pro DIYer and got a work provided Fastback
>>2928550>NOST INCIUDWhat did he mean by this?
>>2933151
>>2931434I have a feeling there was supposed to be a wall that somehow never materialized

>>2934639
>>2933157I would do something like this on purpose just to fuck with people...
>>2934639>>2934640Would like to see a webm lf this casting a shadow on the walls
>>2934651The light source is in front of the carousel so I don't think it does.
>>2930530Looks like it was just sold half finished, probably meant to have a steel wrap around staircase because if code said the railings had to be steel, then the balcony wall has to be steel, and which point you might as well install it like a fire escape. Often the issue is that code says duplexes need multiple exits which can't be right next to each other. I could save her. Stucco render (falls off but 5 minute fix every year), have to spend money on the steel, bit of landscaping, extend the balcony with a metre of pagola if anything would grow on it,
>>2934640
>>2928557The timbers are installed upside down
>>2934885Honestly? Awesome fan.
>>2934885>>2934887that's radi want one
>>2934887Sus
>>2934640Why does everything in Burgerland must have stickers on it with facts that are painfully obvious?
>>2928402Looks like the bathroom of a Motel 6.
>>2935301People are very quick to sue or resort to underhanded and niggardly behaviors.
>>2935334guess that's what happens when you make conventional success your maxim
>>2935334Sounds pretty Jewish.
>>2933151>>2933154This would be fine if it had a picture and a phone table.
how a bit of maintenance abomination
>>2928400>/abo/ threadbased and checkedi always look up 'abo' when i want to find this thread
>>2935801Is this a short. would not approach
>>2935801
>>2935801Spicy bolts.
>>2935801How the FUGG do you let that kind of current bleed into the case and bolts?
>>2931434Slap some curtains on either side of the tub and this doesn't seem so bad as far as too cheap to do it right solutions go.
Fewer abos recently. Is everything being done less horribly these days?
>>2936842It's worse than ever.
>>2935801AMD, huh?
>>2933157>>2934642It's a deliberate thing done in a lot of islamic architecture. I forget the name of it, but it's meant to be obvious in an "only god is perfect" way, like the last tile or ornament in a room is goofed so the builder doesn't commit the sine of pride/vanity. Google sucks now because it'll think you're searching for anti-muslim shit, but there's an actual name and theory for it similar to this;https://www.amusingplanet.com/2017/08/the-art-of-deliberate-imperfection.html
>>2937034I'll never begin to understand this kind of thinking. As if a tile floor could ever compare to the glory of God. If anything, it sounds like a brag that the floor would be too good if done right.
>>2928402What's wrong with this?
>>2937811i just cant see myself in this 1. million dollar housebecause theres no fucking mirror.also the bathroom looks like its from a govie house.
>>2931434Do you remember that one scene in the modern movie version of Romeo and Juliet where the two love interests see each through a fish tank that goes between the sinks in each of the different sex bathrooms?Yeah.
>>2932180Your deck's nail artist charges $100/hr + tax
>>2938315mein gott
>>2936842No, it isn't.I think it's getting worse.
>>2933151The only abomination here is that black box on the left
>>2939556
>>2939557>Fixed your ventilation problem
>>2939558
>>2931434would slap some glass doors on that tub and call it perfect. it's like you faggots have never had siblings.
>>2939556>>2939557>>2939558>>2939559Homeowners special.How would a person sell a house with that shit in it.

>>2939729There's no reason to double the rim joists in the front but not the sides.Did you see he has the rims lagged to the posts instead of notched in?
>>2936957How's 2019 treating you?
>>2933157I bought a pallet of grey paving bricks and exactly one of them was red.
>>2940149https://www.tiktok.com/@vflossy8/video/7461011816290733358
>>2928400I see a lot of things that look like shit but nothing outrageous that makes me shit bricks. shitty construction like this is part and parcel of living amongst beaners. which namefag posted this and were they bragging?
>>2928415what did he do? you can dox him from the OP image if he's that bad btw.
>>2940152
Just caught a fresh one on Zillow.
>>2940244People who convert garages to rooms should be shot.
>>2940251Agreed. If anything, other rooms should be converted into garages.
>>2933151>average skyrim dungeon shortcut
>>2936293my old place had a light switch where I could feel a buzz through the plastic switch, how fucked was it? I didn't tell my landlord because cbf
>>2936842Australians wiped em out
>>2928400
>>2931434Wait, I thought it was a mirror. OMG.
>>2940367There's no shower head so I think what happened was the owner pooped in the tub and his dogs pooped in the toilets.
>>2940338If it wasn't just raw OSB and didn't have that high of a roof it could honestly look okay. Probably more stout than any factory camper. Coat of paint and an aluminum skin would really solve the crackshack vibes.
>>2934887amogus
>>2939586just needs paint
>>2937801Sex throne bathtub Bathe jester
I should've taken pictures, but I once lived in a place where the staircase headed upstairs was converted into a bathroom, to make the basement into a separate apartment. When you walked into the bathroom, the stairs turned 90 degrees right for a ways, then the toilet was on a platform. Turn 90 degrees left and go up some more, and the shower was in the dead end at the top.The best part was that they decided to cover everything with tile, floors and walls. One time I got out of the shower and slipped, rolled down the tiled staircase ass naked and got fucked up lol
>>2931434Throw up some frosted or opaque glass shower doors on each side and it's not even bad. Hell, even just curtains would make it borderline passable.
>>2940244is this real life
>>2940736>tiled staircaseFucking psychopaths...
>>2940190He's a retard from /o/ who drives an 18 wheeler and has a lot lizard as a wife. I recognize the picture. EF is his name, some people call him the Eternal Faggot as he is an annoying rat bastard.
>>2940792yes after looking through the /o/ archive i see he has no issue posting pics of himself or his ugly wife anyway, seems like a truly annoying human
>>2941168Can't even be mad at this one, sloppy but they made do with what they hadSomething about homemade equipment made of scrap/surplus is always kinda neat
>>2941167Nothing wrong with that. The problem was solved.
>>2940690>Probably more stout than any factory camperkek, wouldn't doubt it.Since like the mid 70's, 90% of them have just been stapled together 2x2's and 2x1's, dust board cabinetry, and siding so thin you could almost see through it.
not sure if this has been posted yet *buuurrrp* and I don't feel like checking
>>2937040>>2937034It's not that uncommon, I've seen it in Shinto temples where one pillar would be reveresed as an intentional blemish
>>2941348>mounting a 600 pound water tank up off the floor with a couple of wedge anchorsAt least nobody was under it when it happened.
>>2941622most people have no idea how heavy water gets
>>2935301Maybe if you live in a third world shithole. Normal fans don't make noise
>>2940251>>2940263Any particular reason why this is such a bad idea?
>>2941754Because I want a garage and when I am house shopping it is infuriating to see that houses that should have them no longer have them, but instead have a shitty ground floor bedroom.All of Long Island, New York is like this.
>>2941609Man, saw that hanging clothing/hat/bag as a person for a solid few seconds and was very confused trying to figure out what it was
>>2941768Lol I mistook it for a cute girl too
>>2941754I gotta agree. It is always obvious as fuck and it is always a hack job. They were already going the 'cheap as fuck' route by converting the garage in the first place instead of adding on to the building. So you know every god damn thing in there is the cheapest, shittiest whatever. Cheap windows, cheap doors, cheap flooring, cheap ceilings. Did they insulate it? Probably not. Is it properly connected to the HVAC? Doubt it. Does it have a suitable number of power outlets? Unlikely. What is the lighting situation? In a word, "dire".Open up zillow in your area and look for houses that have garage conversions. They are easy to spot.
>>2941348what was the cap
>>2941168mogs mine
>>2941768>>2941798You're both pervertsJk. I mistook for a woman too
New roof put in next door, here's the gutters..
Abo thread?
>>2936763Fault, obviously.
>>2940338Saw one like this on the freeway in Idaho, though it had a gable roof instead
>>2936957newfag. AMD always ran cooler
>>2942831Imagine the acoustics you could get in there it'd be like crapping at a concert hall. I want this in my house, the fart reverberation chamber where it's so loud you need to wear hearing protection. Like a god damn indoor gun range.
>>2935801Do you need lava wrench to access lava nut? Where to farm lava material
>>2942831probably one of those convenience mart employee restrooms that also doubles as a storage

can there be a rule that electricians have to explain what the fuck is wrong with the picture when they post it in these threads? yous keep just posting a random jumble of cords and I'm just supposed to know the green one's plugged in where the red one should go and that's bad?? sparky cunt
>>2943236I remember when the lost coast demo came out and I thought video games could never look better.
>>2943239>lost coasti didn't even know that existed.
>>2931434>>2930530>>2937801>>2935801christ man maybe I do need to frequent /diy/ from time to time
>>2943236why is there a shed on top of a shed
>>2941810I know a few people along the socal coast who build it like that in the first place, mainly because adus are easy to get permits for, limited in size, and can be attached to a garage for the main house. they add an extra bathroom and bedrooms to the adu (basically no living room), insulate and properly wire the garage, get insulated garage doors, and use it as a living room. it's actually kinda nice being able to open a garage door to the living room if you have a party. still its hot or miss and i'd be careful when buying one.
>>2943207aeiou
>>2943244oh yeah this thread is even slow with how it can usually get, come back during winter
>>2942317was it in north idaho? cause i think i know that guy
>>2943353Nah, Boise area. Could be the same guy traveling around a bit though.
>>2943378the one around me is really nice looking, has the curvy build of a hobbiton house.
>>2937801The bathtub is nice, but I'm unclear on how to get from the bathtub to the bed without dying.
Dug up an old backup drive and found something surreal while exploring photos from 2009.
>>2943440Another angle.
>>2943440>>2943441What's wrong with this? It gets the job done.
>>2943743Other than the fact that the exhaust is fucked up, the rear bumper is shot, it looks like shit, the roof probably leaks, it won't have any heat or AC, it will have shit gas milage, and any retired school bus will have a million miles on it? Nothing. Well, maybe not nothing, as we only have pictures of its left size. At least the turn signals work.
>>2943831It's beat up for sure, but I think for it to be a true abomination it has to leave you in disbelief. It has to have an element of the absurd. You have to look at it and think "who in their right mind thought this was acceptable at all? who would have done this? what went so wrong for this to happen?" or you have to see their internal process working in a retarded but funny way to reach the approach they reached. I think in this case they either had the opportunity to get one of these for cheap and thought fuck it, or they just have poor taste.
>>2944278Agreed, that bus fits the bill for whatever kayak rental company owns it. I've never seen a production vehicle that can seat a bunch of people and has an enormous bed to haul all that equipment at the same time. I'm sure you could get some aftermarket truck company to build you something similar on a medium duty chassis but you'd be well over $100k at that point and this was probably fabbed up by a friend for a few cases of beer.
>>2944479Impressive that they got utilities to this.
>>2944553>>2944554Might as well remove the hand rail at that point.
>>2939586that is not an abonination, that is sovl
>>2941168offically sovlfvl
>>2944479>a very normal shedwhat?
>>2944563Maybe that of a crackhead.
>>2944479Fatherless, son of crack whore trying to be edgy in another thread. Way to go champ!
>>2944574yes. but a true abomination is done well, by a skilled tradesman and is still horrendous, you guys have lost the concept of what it is, by those standards i could just photograph a derelict building and be like "look guys, what an abomination"no, the idea is that it has been made deliberately, well even, and is awful for many reasons.ramshackle, maybe qualifies, but the above does not in my opinion.here is an actual abomination.
>>2944568>normaldo you have your glasses on?>>2944618what? how is that edgy?
>>2944479Kek
Found this below the laminate floor installed by my "contractor". 12 mm osb, non toung and groove installed on wooden beams more than 1 meter apart with sand / slag in between. It was sagging and bouncing 1 cm up and down, this dumb mutherfucker even sprayed PU foam below in some of the pockets. Im so tired of hungarians broskis ... doing everything myself now. These people in this country are beyond retarded..
>>2944278> you have to see their internal process working in a retarded but funny way to reach the approach they reachedI wish I'd saved that thread of the guy trying to move his washer/dryer upstars by sawing it apart then running flextube through his vents for the water hookups, I've never laughed so hard in my life
>>2944767I hope you can envision my expression progressing through the stages of shock, disdain and humor as a realised the meaning and implication of this.If someone has the link, post it.

Can anyone shed some light on what the fuck the previous homeowner may have been thinking? This is underneath a vent on the roof, in the attic.
>>2935801what's wrong? the glow nuts?
>>2944948If it vents to the outside are those fkex connected to bathroom vent fans? They might be insulated so they dont condensate in winter.
>>2944999yeah but what about the bin fill of holes?
>>2945013My guess is "why cut a bunch of holes in the roof for vents, each of which might leak, when I can fuck up a trash bin and plumb all the vents into that and be guaranteed leaks?" Looks like they intended to run more vents into it but just didn't for some reason, so your vents have been dumping right into the attic.
>>2943223some one finally said it
>>2944630>>2944936>osb>osbWhen the fuck did this dipshit word appear? Is it like how Megahertz got replaced overnight with "Megatransfers" and everyone acts like it's a real word? PLYWOOD, motherfucker. The name of that type of board is PLYWOOD.
>>2945045It's not plywood. Plywood is better.
>>2945045It is specifically OSB or oriented strand board. Not plywood. Boy don't you feel like a dipshit right now...
>>2944630>real life MockupI mean, it’s an interesting concept and it sure makes visualization of your new home easier than some plans, render or even architectural model, but come on, that’s just wasteful. Did they really need to spend thousands of dollars to realize that their house has away to few windows?
>>2945045If you are referring to memory for "Megatransfers", it makes sense. DDR already is double clock rate, so the actual clock is typically double the memory controller clock. DDR5 takes it a step further and all modules are dual channel. So not only is it double clock rate, but it sends 2x the data at the same clock. That means DRR 5 6400 MT/s is running at a memory clock of 3200MHz. So MT/s !=MHz. It's a way to define memory speed given that MHz doesn't tell the whole story anymore.
>>2945045>>osb>When the fuck did this dipshit word appear?It's a completely different product.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oriented_strand_boardPictured is plywood. Pic related.They're not inter-changable.
>>2940329it's a long way to the pot if you wanna fart and poop
>>2945045It was patented in 1965, invented some time before that. OSB is a boomer, just like you.
>>2940149Someone died in that chair.
>>2945045Wow. Screen cap your own post and put it in this thread.
>>2945080>every example posted in the thread is visibly plywood to anyone with a functioning brain
>>2945130This is rage bait right? You can't possibly be that stupid are you?
