My good friend's house that he recently moved out of had the main breaker panel located in a basement bathroom. Neat!

I have what I think is that exact same dishwasher, and that would be the biggest pain in the rear end. How do people get these jobs?

At first I thought it was a brilliant idea. Two seconds later I realized that it would only be warm after flushing.

canyoneer posted:I had that in my last apartment, where I lived for just over a year. It was terrible. Hot water greatly accelerated the wear on the rubber items, and ripped through the slumlord-grade flapper and valves like they were made of paper. The toilet was broken every few months because of this, and was the only toilet in the unit. If it broke on a weekend, you'd spend the weekend fishing around inside the tank to manually actuate the flapper. I'd sometimes get black streaks of rubber inside the toilet bowl too. Poop soup aside, was the toilet warm sitting on it?

I'd suggest spray foam only because a can is like $5, and batts of insulation come in bundles that are like $20+.

FogHelmut posted:What is a better alternative n 12v applications? I mean besides soldering and shrink tubing. I really like these 3M Scotchlok connectors.  You clamp them down with pliers or something and they are filled with an epoxy to seal them. I've had a 100% success rate using them for basically everything low voltage.

I did a ~600 sqft section of my basement with them with ~2" of clearance. It was hell. Absolute hell.

I'm assuming this story is from year and years ago. Wiki SunOS, the last version died out in 1992, so this is probably at some point in the 80s.

Can places really hold back deposits for lightbulbs? I've never rented, but that sounds stupid.

I liked Disaster DIY on Canadian HGTV as well. Bryan is so dreamy.

When did that happen? The last time I was at the ROM was probably 3 years ago, and I don't remember it looking that bad

Humbug Scoolbus posted:Oh sweet Jesus. I believe the back of it is either sitting on the ground, or attached to the rickety fence, there are 4x4s that are just sitting on the ground, butt joints are just made wherever they ran out of wood and are not supported, no lag bolts anywhere, etc, etc, etc. This is in Canada too, so those cemented posts that are down 6 inches or so will be shifting the hell out of that come winter. All in all, it's wonderful

Well, if you're going to do a crap job building it, might as well make it ugly too.

Antifreeze Head posted:So wait, is that OSB they've dropped down as the floor? I wish. That would just be layers of amazing. They're just laying boards without any sort of pattern to it, so there will be two really ugly joints down the middle of the deck. I assume most people would consider doing a brick like pattern so it looks good.
