This all feels very "classic SA" (in a good way) and I am absolutely sincerely rooting for you, this rules

Here are some pics of the mess I have to clean up since some we're curious/needed more pictures.




So its a bit of work. Luckily the joists come off like butter.

My childhood spent in rural valleys of Oregon makes me see this and get incredibly curious what's under there. I used to find all sorts of cool (well, to me) poo poo in overgrown debris piles on farms or in the wilderness around my friends' houses. Old tractor parts, farm tools, random junk.

Only one instance of woods porn, though.

So the soil scientist upon learning of the shitters suggested I get a metal detector and try to find jewelry lost amongst ancient buried poo poo piles. I must contemplate this. Perhaps the timbershitters will fund themselves.

please, please do this

I'm just a dumb computer toucher and know nothing of architecture / construction, but wouldn't there be an insulation problem with external pocket doors too?

I'm trying to figure out what youre asking. Are you asking if it's possible to have them sliding in a pocket outside the main framing of the house? That might be possible, but having them inside creates more deadspace in the wall which adds insulation.

Like I said I'm pretty dumb when it comes to this stuff, I just meant like using a pocket door as an entrance like a front door on a house, having it installed into an external wall, like having that pocket inside of a wall that's external. In my head the exterior wall was like normal thickness so there wouldn't be a lot of room for the door to slide into its pocket plus have proper insulation, but I'm guessing this is accounted for somehow and I'm going to shut up now and let people who know more about this talk :sweatdrop:

Nah nah. Speak your mind man that's how people learn. So instead of going into the external wall. They just add another wall on the interior side of the pocket. So it has the exterior wal thickness. Then the pocket then an interior wall on the other side of the pocket.

Ahh, gotcha. Thank you, that makes sense!

This thread is entertaining and educational!
