Hey Ry please make sure you have the explicit OK from anyone whose photos you’re posting ITT. There are entire websites out there that exist to doxx posters on this site and the last thing I want is some poor woman who dated you a decade ago getting prank called because her face showed up in this thread. Which is all to say I edited that prom photo out of your post.

Yeah it's not bad if you know you're going to be using it but be careful, a lot of times it only covers the attorney's time on the specific matter that's covered, so like when I used it I still had to pay $500 for poo poo that was billable and related but wasn't specifically covered even though it was necessary for the covered matter.

Perhaps you should consider pocket doors as well, think of all the space you can save when you don’t have to account for the swing of a door in your rooms.

Kiavahr posted:Plus, aren't they super finicky to install? All the carpenters I work with hate them. Seems like you need an opening in your framing twice as wide and twice as square on top of that or they get immediately wedged. In typical stick framing you'd find in the US, they're a total pain in the rear end but if Rytheric is timber framing already it's a lot easier to design the structure to accept them. Japanese house construction (is peanut reading this thread?) is a good point of reference for pocket doors that don't suck. Old balloon framed arts and crafts are also good references, assuming they haven't settled on their foundation like mine has. corgski fucked around with this message at 01:02 on Feb 14, 2021 |

Just to make it clear for everyone in this thread, you're allowed to and extremely encouraged to point out oversights and scope creep and yak shaving and everything else that is clearly coming up with a project as... ambitious as this. Where I'm drawing the line for moderation in this thread is personal insults. The time for pissing in the well is when all reasonable solutions have been rejected and the goon is on their way to Khazad-dûm.

Walk dude, you can get better land elsewhere without any of the baggage that land has. Also get yourself an agent for fucks sake and don't do any tests on the land before you have an accepted offer contingent on those tests next time.

I'm assuming he's dealing with a seller's agent, (and since he doesn't have an agent himself he's getting hosed sideways by them) but who knows.

If you or your lawyer didn't pay a reputable title search company yourself without involving the land's current "owner" or this random seller rear end in a top hat you don't have a title search.

Rytheric posted:There is a general trend in my life that whenever I go to buy a piece of property someone buys it out from under me. So I wanted to freeze the owners ability to sell until I got the septic permit. You do that by making an offer and having an accepted offer sitting there contingent on all the tests you need to do passing, not by paying someone for a title search. There are contracts for this. Please get a realtor.

Realtors don't factor into what mortgage you can get. Like, not at all. Plus lending is going haywire right now because of how low interest rates are. You can buy just about anything with 3% down and PMI and it sounds like you were ready to put 30% down on this.

I know everyone here is eager to get their dunks in, but for fucks sake any modern vehicle with leaf springs will have shocks to go with them. We're not talking about a covered wagon here. Please carry on with all the reasons you shouldn't use cinderblocks to support a vehicle in place of jack stands and other genuine "what the fucks," don't invent your own.

Ry, don’t do dumb poo poo to try to impress goons. This includes the fire pit. Everyone else, don’t suggest or endorse dumb poo poo. This includes claiming that the exhaust isn’t an immediate problem that needs to be addressed before he stays in the truck again.  I’ve heard several people express concern that this thread could go the direction of other goon sagas (especially a notable AI one) where naive goons were egged on for the entertainment of others and I don’t want that blood on my hands, and I doubt any of you do either. Please continue to use the report button and/or PMs judiciously and don’t be afraid to shout down anyone egging Rytheric on for laughs. Good advice may be boring but that’s where we’re at, doing dumb poo poo is only funny when you have a solid foundation of smart poo poo to fall back on after it fails.

Space Kablooey posted:Very stupid question: How is the exhaust seeping into the box cabin if the pipe is pointing downwards in the middle of a presumably solid floor? Is it a question of the exhaust seeping through some really small cracks in the floor and/or through the back and through the door seams? Hot air rises and nothing about a box truck is airtight.

Just gonna throw it out there that if you really want an unconventional RV platform, skoolie conversions are a thing and come with a number of benefits over an E350 box truck, such as windows and emergency egress.
