get 5 gallons of gasoline (91 octane is best) dig a small hole - approximately 1 cubic foot - pour gasoline into hole.

Allow to soak for 15 seconds - drop a lit "Blue Diamond" strike anywhere match onto the gasoline.

This will work everytime.

It's all done like a regular house, there's no tiny utilities to match your tiny house.

(not OP)
In the USA, the power companies won't run service to structured that haven't passed building code inspections. And tiny homes won't pass, so you can't get electrical service directly to your little trailer.

You have to run an extension cord from a building that already has power, or you have to get an agricultural service pole put in. The ag pole has a meter + breaker box on it, and some sockets.

The page below says it cost a total of about $1000

Get a professional to do it so it she's unhappy you can shift blame. Its a woman bruh.. They're finicky. If you can shift blame, do it.

Have you talked to her about it? I would worry that after the changes, she won't recognize it as her old buddy anymore, especially if it's done as a surprise.

Unnecessary restriction. Don't buy any junk you don't need.
I also learned today that if it's brown flush it down, if it's yellow let it mellow. You know, save shekels by being filthy. This basic idea can be utilized in many ways.

Take water from the toilet to drink instead of pumping it out the sink. The toilet water is already pumped out into the toilet for you so use that instead of running up your water bill. Just scoop it up into a jug and put it in your fridge.

They're both SMT components. The one on the left looks like a capacitor from the color but could be a resistor or inductor. The right component is an IC. Could do about anything.

any kind of paint that costs less than a new tarp is going to flake off of something flexible like that.

It looks fine to me.

Its not mine in the picture. I've taken mine off for the summer.

I checked the price to have a new one fitted and its over $400.

It may actually be Vinyl not PVC. I'm not even sure.

I've seen some videos on youtube of people putting 'dye' on things like Vinyl seats and PVC pipes and extension cords. I'm wondering if this will work for me.

Now that I think about it, the stain could be mould or mildew.

But wouldn't that get cleaned off using a pressure wadher?

I had a set of X530s. They are pretty mediocre speakers even by Logitech standards. It has two identical drivers per speaker, which is pretty useless. If you opened them up you will find they don't even have a crossover or anything. They are cheap speakers though, so you are at least getting your moneys worth. Not like the crap Bose sells.

>I already tore them apart
So they are useless now. You should have sold them and spent the money on something useful.

>now I'm stuck with no idea how to connect 5 speakers to one cable, without losing 90% of sound volume and quality.
How much money do you want to spend on these garbage speakers? The amplifier is in the 'subwoofer' (which is just slightly larger than a decent sized mid driver) and it is designed to drive two garbage universal speakers per channel. You want to be able to drive 5 garbage universal speakers per channel. The amp can't handle that without you losing most of your volume and maybe even destroying the amp.

So you need a new amp. If you are going to buy a new amp you might as well get some decent drivers. That means you can't reuse anything from the speakers, which you already destroyed. They generally sell on CL for $25-$30 if in decent shape. You could have bought a set of used full sized speakers for that. Get an old amp/receiver from somewhere and you'd already be worlds better than any stereo/2.1 speaker systems Logitech maker.

Also, designing speaker cabinets is not just about slapping bits of wood together and having a beer. They have to be designed for the drivers you plan to mount in them or they will sound like crap.

First sorry about english.

Keep the faith OP, you can have a lot of fun with that shit. It will never sound good because you can't have 6 good amp channels and 6 good speakers for 100$, but don't throw the shit away.

>>1038440
Okay I get your point and agree with the general idea but in detail :

- They have a capacitor on one driver to get a bit more treble, Put your ear on one driver then another you can hear it. Of course not crossover on two identical drivers, the filtering is active and it's in the """subwoofer"""

- They are really okay for the price, here it's like 15 - 20€ for the 2.1 and around 50€ for the 5.1 version.

- Totally agree about Bose, it's not even Apple-tier "good but 2x too expensive", it's "bad AND fucking expensive"

>So they are useless now.
No don't be mean

>You should have sold them and spent the money on something useful.
Yes but it's really cheap so you might as well have fun with it

- Putting more speakers on an amp channel doesn't make you lose power, either you plug them in series and yes you might be limited by the amp max voltage, OR you plug them in parallel, you get more power out of the amp but it can overheat, or just produce (more) shitty sound.

- Yes OP can buy a real system and it will work better but it's not the question he asked

- Actually building a closed cab is mostly about slapping bits of wood together, you just need the right internal volume and be careful with materials, sealing, resonnances and stuff. For this kind of drivers we really don't give a fuck, just keep the same volume they were in and you're good. However, bass reflex, horn, the different kinds of bandpass... yeah that's complicated stuff.

SOURCE : I have the x230 on my PC, it's shit compared to a nice hifi system, it's amazing compared to what most people use. And a used one can be 15€ so it has a pretty amazing price/quality ratio.

I got my hands on a x530 and customised it for gf. I'm going to dump the pics and explain.

>>1038329
>found a company
what company?

89k for what exactly?

does it use the same material or just the same design with shit material so it will be freezing?

planning permission for what? does it allow this sort of design?

that design is not suitable for uk because balcony in the rain is for laughs, also what happens to a garden, what is outside those huge windows, why the weird shape living room, why no corridor from entrance to bedroom etc... the design itself is literally shit holiday catalogue tier design with little merit and makes very little sense... why the huge roof for example, why the double height living room, basically why everything and not a good design other than a holiday cabin, yes that is a cabin at best.

and like all other build a house threads... it always ends in "talk to a real life local architect" because 4chan does not have the bandwidth for a proper discuss for you to fully tell us what you need/want and what is feasible and how much etc...

TLDR talk to a real life architect before taking a shit catalogue to a builder and tell him to build this and then becomes a biggest stupid mistake in your life

talk to your local council, you will find they are being "pressured" into making specific places for self build homes, basically they are allocating land that will already have the water/gas/BT ready for you to build on, plus the planning permission will be there already.

other than that, ikea homes can make things easier
