Very short stud walls of 75x35mm framing pine at 500 centres for the big bit in the middle, 16mm melamine faced board for the drawer areas, top with 19mm thick sheet flooring (called yellowtongue here). I'm also assuming you'd be attaching the free ends to a wall with a ledger or similar.

>>1205916
thanks. left wall is concrete, and i want to avoid being miserable and trying to drill and attach anything to that wall. just construction wood supports. i'm looking at how decks and patios are built now so i think i'll go that route?

>>1206207
If you're not attaching it, just add an extra stud wall on the edge(s) to provide the necessary support.

I'd steer away from trying to do it strictly deck style, as that means bearers, which means, at a guess, something like 140x45 for an 1870 span, which may be a more expensive way to go than just simple framing timber and short stud frames - generally nothing beats a load path straight to the ground for cheapness. (If it was me building that, I'd use downgrade studs that I can pick up for $2/2400mm).

Figure out what you want to use as a floor material first, see what its support requirements are, and work down from there. (ie if the sheet width is 1000, and it needs supporting at 500 centres, then you know where the supporting frames need to go.)

You may also need to support it over the drawers with a bit of 70x35 on edge depending on what/how the drawers are built.

And here's the schematic. Thanks in advance if anybody is able to help me out here.

>>1205266

Yes it is R3

But for the love of god, just trash the thing. it is of the type that the chassis is LIVE (AC on the chassis and your guitar connected to the hot side of mains). These were safe only inside the insulated enclosure.

>>1205264
If you're thinking fires were less common back in the day, that's not true. Fires were simply not reported as often - because, with these instruments, fire was a natural part of life.

You need a compression spring, or a tension spring? Garage door springs are about the right size for tension springs, but multiple tens of tons? Yeah, one spring the size of your arm with 2 meters of travel isn't going to give you that, no matter what kind of spring it is.

>>1204395
I dont need multiple tons, I want multiple tons, really I just want as much as possible and then I can work with that, I need a compression spring, for maximum release of force

What do you think steam is?

con: it's hot so it'll deform many materials
con: making a steam pump is much harder than a water pump
con: you need a big fucking boiler to continually turn water into steam

>>1203803
What if you already had steam on site already e.g a refinery?

Punch + Hammer + WD40 + New Bolt.
This shits like day 1 of diy class.

>>1197527
What do you mean punch? I grew up in a house with no DIY or maintenance conducted at all. Things were regularly getting broken and thrown out when all they really needed was some minor maintenance. I am the only one in my family that can even use a screwdriver.

to answer your questions: NO and NO. bye now

>>1206209
The sticky does not mention a wiki.

>>1206222

exactly. thats why I answered your questions with NO and NO. obviously you cant read either.

Make sure your parents and kids want to live there.
Don't be an childish cunt if kids want to move somewhere at some point. They'll just hate you even more if you start bitchin'.

The cabins need kitchen etc too. You want them to be able to do their own thing.

That way if and when family are not there you could rent them.

You'd be ahead to build a shop first to facilitate everything else. I'd have a power pole placed with 120 and 240v outdoor outlets as I did for my shop, then you have power to build your workshop.

Have many cleanouts on the pipe run to your septic. If you never need them they didn't cost much. If you do, you'll have it easy. I glued my cleanout tees to the pipes on only one side so if I ever have to I can easily remove the whole line. It's been twenty years with no problems but forethought is free.

Study hard. Be superbly equipped because tools are cheap compared to what they do for you. A forty foot High Cube shipping container is an instant storm proof storage area and workshop. I have two joined as my welding and machine shop area. You can paint them attractively or use camo to make them vanish. Pic is my 20' storage container.

Wouldn't you want less blue light at night?

If you have a PWM-free monitor, couldn't you just turn down the brightness?

>>1205265
Just get computer glasses you moron.

>https://www.spektrumglasses.com
These ones are well reviewed

>>1205265
train yourself by looking at a red light 2 hours a day
soon you will see things less red

Get an air conditioning unit.

/diy/ - Do It Yourself
You know what that means, right?

>>1204852
Install it yourself.

We get these threads every damn summer of retards asking how to generate cold air for cheap. The cheapest and most efficient way happens to be an air conditioner.

But by all means, freeze a bunch of water bottles and place them in front of a box fan. Also completely insulate your room because the hot air will flood right back in.

>>1204806
Root, disable app. If no root available, find an app to freeze the launcher. DESU, it probably is a different app that does that. I'll Google some shit and see what I can find.

>>1204811
Here fag.
1º- Install Nova Launcher (I tried with this one, maybe other ones also works)
2º- Set as default, keeping press the button, select always Nova.
3º- Go to settings - apps - show system apps
4º- Search for Launcher 3 and force stop
5º- In the same screen go to Permissions and disable all
6º- Go back and in Storage, clear data and clear cache
7º- Go to main screen of apps and tap in the gear
8º- Go to Modify system settings
9º- Up in the right corner tap the three points and show system
10º- Search Launcher 3 and disable "Allow modify system settings"
11º- Go back and go to "Draw over others apps"
12º- Up in the right corner tap the three points and show system
13º- Search Launcher 3 and disable "Permit drawing over other apps"

I did find something similar but it didn't have all the steps your guide had. Thank you very very much. Ads seem to have completely disappeared and phone isn't filling up anymore. Love you.

No. Because if the shield were shot more perpendicular to that face, the bullet would transfer more energy into the shield.
You want to minimize the area which exposes a full face of flat steel to that target. that's how deflection works.

You're thinking of tank sloped armor, which actually works by increasing the thickness of that steel relative to the height angle of the projectile. It's a completely different concept.

You're worried about small arms and not tank shells. You will want to go with a concave design.

For that matter, it's worth noting that during the days of gunpowder, most shields shrunk in size or were dropped entirely. Bucklers stayed in vogue for a very long time because of their relative usefulness.

Also, most shields were not bulletproof. But there were some African tribes that had bulletproof Rhino hide shields.

>inb4 some /pol/cuck
This is an example of what you will want. You still see the defined ridge, however it still mainly works by virtue of being round.
I also don't have any good pictures of shields and bucklers. Bear with me.

>>1200680
Okay buddy, the reason why it has a gentle curve is to give it a greater surface area from which to deflect bullets. If you were to go with a sharp right angle (like you're suggesting), any bullet coming from 45 degrees to you will penetrate the shield as it is striking a flat surface rather than a rounded surface. This is the concept behind angled plating on tanks.

15!?! Do you live on a farm or something? If not sounds like there is a massive breeding ground someone in/under/near your house.

Keep using the glue traps, seal up all plumbing openings under kitchen/bathroom sinks with steel wool, and if it comes down to it get yourself a couple of cats.

>>1191849
>Just in a week we caught 15 of them in glue traps.
the mice aren't the problem, the problem is you are a fucking retard.

15 mice didn't just accidentally get lost in your house on the way to some fucking mouse convention, they are in your house because 1) you are probably a tinky cunt who leaves all crumbs and old food and shit lying around and never cleans up after themselves which is what attracts the mice in the first place and 2) you have an abode which is poorly built and is full of holes that mice can enter by.

so lets see, you put down glue traps which are absolutely not humane so we know you have some sociopathic issues but lets put that to one side for a moment and check which of the two problems above putting down glue traps will fix:

1) you being a dirty filthy tinky cunt?
no, unelss you stick one over your mouth until you die it won't help that.
2) the holes by which the mice are entering?
no, unless you are gluing the traps over all the holes in your house it won't stop them getting in.

so here is the solution i guess:

1) keep your house clean. stop leaving old food and crumbs for mice to eat. give your house a proper clean and then keep it clean.

2) fill in all the holes that mice get through. a mouse can get through a hole the size of a pencil. if you can drop a pencil down a hole then a mouse can get through. lift your carpets i guess and have a look for holes and gaps of this size. fill them with wire wool, mice won't chew through wire wool unlike literally anything else.
if you didn't bother with step 1 they will want to get in and will chew through like wood or brick or concrete if its thin enough.

so yeah thats basically it. if you do these two things you won't need traps because mice won't 1) want in 2) be able to get in.

call an exterminator if you want to pay someone to keep coming back to your house to remove all of the mice that have died in the traps he set without actually solving the problem as discussed above.

Bait, bait and more bait. Peanut butter mixed with crumbled bait sticks to mouse traps but if the trap doesn't get them, they still die. Cheap Chinese bait buckets via Ebay does the job.

Kill, kill, kill. I do. Replenish bait forever until it's nibbled no more, and leave it available.

Gator/croc/cayman is difficult (impossible) to seal without it looking like plastic.
But most people like the worn look.

>>1185719
That's just cow hide molded to look like gator. And I've had no issues with it yet; it's just the most recent thing I made.

>>1185706
Take a look at resolene and other similar products. Some of them finish matte.
