TooMuchAbstraction posted:This one's giving me some major tonal dissonance. Like, you have all this fancy woodwork and ostentatious decoration...and then you have some couches that wouldn't look out of place at Grandma's. That fabric is crazy expensive. It's what your grandma's sofa's upholstery was made cheaply to mimic. e: The pattern is woven, not printed. ee: I mean, I'm assuming. 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 10:05 on Jul 15, 2019 |

cakesmith handyman posted:I was at a working woollen mill recently, with their original in-the-basement-hydroelectric-plant powered chain programmable looms, still cranking out jacquard woven wool rugs up to 4.5m wide. They'll happily make whatever you wanted if you work with their designer/loom programmer, I can imagine prices are thousands per metre considering the hundreds per metre they were charging for their standard tapestry fabrics. My well-off great aunt had a chaise longue and six chairs reupholstered back in the eighties and the jacquard fabric cost 25 000 FIM which comes to about 7 000 € today. And I bet it wasn't the fanciest pattern. The reason I remember the price might have something to do with me making GBS threads the chaise longue when I had a really bad stomach bug.

barbecue at the folks posted:I want to a) know how this is done and b) then do it myself. Some of those are definitely 1980s (you can tell by the "signature", and also I remember them). Also it's done like this: 1) build bathroom 2) waterproof 3) glue covers to wall 4) lacquer five times 5) install 100-kg glass with cut-outs for plumbing 6) seal e: Personally I would leave out the glass as it serves no purpose except long-time protection (which isn't necessary because no-one'll want to look at that for several decades) but your tits have to be real sharp to scratch the shower wall. ee: That "Christmas Parade" in the lower left corner from 1983 was dope poo poo: all Barks. 3D Megadoodoo fucked around with this message at 07:50 on Aug 27, 2019 |

His Divine Shadow posted:In a modern house like ours (built 2013) with a modern "pönttöuuni" with secondary combustion of the flue gasses, in addition to the traditional deign of smoke channels to extract heat, we're around 70-80% efficiency. Even "antique" masonry heaters are pretty efficient; they figured out pulling air* back down from the chimney ages ago (no idea how it works). *) Well, "air".
