Want me to reserve it for you? $15 +, like probably $4-500 to freight it out + $1-200k for a piece of land to put it on. it's like when someone says how cheap their hobby is because the materials are cheap, but the initial barrier to entry is hundreds and hundreds of dollars in tools

The Voice of Labor posted:$15 +, like probably $4-500 to freight it out + $1-200k for a piece of land to put it on. I get that. I typically don't consider start up investments either just the cash flow afterwards or return on investments. Freight might not be a problem though cause I have a box truck lol. Just need to find yourself a piece of land in the middle of nowhere where you can set the tub. I know of one half acre parcel that only wants $1000 down then monthly payments for the other $8000. Can't build a house on it cause it doesn't perk but you can put a tub on it.

You can probably find a dirt cheap hosed up old tub locally, and if you seriously need to buy land you don’t need to spend that much, cmon. I’m in nyc and there’s upstate land that’s cheap as hell so I think you’re overestimating. Don’t let a decades long dream pass you by!! Just make sure to post lots of progress shots of your woodlands deathtrap firetub.

So I just watched a 30 minute, how to build a shitter tutorial. Thing wasn't up to code to my state and definitely not timber framed so I can only give it a 5/7, but here is a link if you want to watch someone build a shitter. https://youtu.be/dTeo8OOxodo

The Door Frame posted:I always got nervous around those. Sure you can get the water hot, but what about when it starts getting too hot? Like too hot to jump out or like what temperature is desirable? You can look up water temperature guide lines. I recall looking them up for anthropomorphic guidelines to determine the best temperature to extract vitamin c from pine needles. There is an anthropomorphic equivalent of 140, 160, and 180 degrees. If I recall.

UCS Hellmaker posted:Sidenote for anyone wanting to do this but not in a goddamn box truck. You can buy used ambulances on ebay that you just have to strip the running light and siren off of and they are fully road legal. This guy know what he’s talking about. If you’re not getting a box truck/bread tuck/ups van to convert, an ambulance is what I’ve been recommending to people for years. The only problem is they most often don’t have standing height, which sucks to live with day to day

Not many of the perks for an ambulance listed appeals to me. I dont care about 240 volts and such.

OP, have you considered incorporating new advances in Wood Science into your timbershitter design? https://www.cbc.ca/radio/quirks/scientists-develop-transparent-wood-that-is-stronger-and-lighter-than-glass-1.5902739

Follow up, do you plan on using engineered lumber for the timbershitter? If so, how long will it stay up until it burns down like an overinsured five-over-one?

Man, as a useless city person it's impossible to tell which posts in this thread are loving around and which are talking about real things. Even "engineered lumber" is something I had no idea existed, let alone refurbished ambulances and radioactive land and epistemic crises about  With every Ry comment I think "this time he must be taking the piss"

It's all loving insane, but I really do think that Ry has enough drive for knowledge to achieve their (possibly deranged) goals, if they're willing to listen and learn going forward.

Nah I'm doing timber framing as opposed to stick framing or manufactured wood (other than laminated paneling) Here is an example. I think they are using the same blueprint: https://youtu.be/0_naku8GRxg Edit:quoted wrong person Rytheric fucked around with this message at 14:35 on Feb 7, 2021 |

I'd say that even if you do the hinged fire pit, you still want some sort of chimney or make sure the wind NEVER blows into the truck.

UCS Hellmaker posted:The draw of an ambulance is the electrical is all upgraded with a more powerful inverter with idle system set for power production and reduced engine wear and gas usage. Along with a built-in 240 input for stationary charging and use. And since they are built to defined known standards and have strict maintenance requirements you can know what your getting. Get a duramax engine and it won't die. Your advice is actually really cool, thanks!

Maybe this was answered already, but why a timber frame constructed shitter? Timbers main advantages is high quality construction and the ability to make huge interior spaces. A pooper needs neither of those things. So why not save a buck and do stick construction? You can still make something super nice, if that's one of the motivating factors.
