In my case, it's all metal posts. A few need straightening, which I understand you can do with a torch (heat and bend) or at worst you cut it and weld it back on straight.

Last one I bought, around 6 years ago, was around that. For a 2600 sq ft house. But also got some amped up filtration and whatnot along with it due to allergy crap. And speaking of money you don't want to spend on a home. That's right about what a good new fence is about to cost me unless I...

I somehow hadn't seen that thread. Thanks! I'll go dive in there. For the graphite molds and most other stuff I plan on doing yes.

Wow, thanks for the rundown. Yeah, from what I am reading graphite mean using a very small bit at a high speed and slow motions, and having an integrated vacuum hood to collect dust as it goes. But those molds like I showed are $100 a pop and I want to get a set where I can select fronts and...

OK, since the topic of CnC has come up in here. I don't remember if I asked this here before but... I'm shopping for a CnC. My use cases though.. aren't woodwork for the most part. But there isn't another good thread to ask this in. What I want to do is: mill graphite molds for metal...

If there is any single thing in Texas which openly declares our hubris and feeling of being superior to God themselves.. it is Buc'ees. The real goal for me would be enough land with enough trees, and preferably a creek, then get my ag exemption for "wildlife habitat preservation" which you can...

So,... in line with the topic of the thread... I'm looking to purchase some land out from Dallas to build a "rest of our lives" home for Mrs. Haus and I. I realize the optimal time to drop money on this land will probably be once the apparently impending retail real estate bubble bursts...

Wait... is that Riann Wilson playing Dr Demento? Still remember growing up in my Jr High school days eagerly cuing up blank cassettes each Sunday when the Dr Demento show would air locally so I could record everything.... much wow.. so formative...

I will say that after my lawn guy decided to go from $40 a visit to $60 a visit this year citing "higher gas prices", I hit Craigslist and bought one of this type of mower (except mine is a Ryobi 40v). And honestly, it's been kinda great. It's not even self propelled, but it's light enough...

I know multiple people around my parts who have Tacomas and have been really happy with them. Doesn't hurt that I'm in Dallas which is where Toyota motors North America is based. Also, they're built here in the US, if that's a thing for you. One question would be what tier of "truck owner"...

I sleep like a baby on airplanes. Probably because when I was a baby my grandparents would put me in the car and drive around the block when I wouldn't go to sleep and POOF I'd be out like a light.

I'm a chunky lunchbox. (over 220) It's my stout mountain dwarf genetics ;) That and a combination of my grandmother's cooking while growing up, and wife's propensity for learning everything my grandmother made and mastering the making of it. (Which was how I knew she was wifey material). So...

I snore, and I got a watch which measures SPO2. It was saying I was dipping into the 80's at night. I thought I was on a sure fire path to a CPAP. Then I used a wedge pillow so I started sleeping with my body leaning upwards at an incline. According to @Mrs. Haus it's apparently suppressed a...

My deepest condolences. I was raised by my grandparents, had to be "the adult in the room" handling things when both my grandfather died (97) and Grandmother (2010). Now my mother is in decline and I'm the only relative left in town to assist for things. It sucks man... Only lesson I have...

I remember saving points earned through a school fundraiser so I could get two of these and my friend and I could fire them at things... (shooting them up was kinda boring). Unfortunately, this also severely limited their life span. heh Isn't this just that guy off Big Bang Theory? Unrelated :

Just watched this on the plane back from Vegas. This movie deserves FAR more attention than it's gotten. It managed to be a brilliant SciFi film with an actual unique premise, was visually fantastic (hated that I watched it on a small tablet screen, but at least I had good headphones for it)...

At a trade show, at a vendor evening event. Free booze. Free band. good times... and by 9:00 I'm looking at my watch wondering if anybody will notice and be miffed if I duck out and head back to sleep in my hotel room.

He'd make a hell of a Magneto in my opinion.... Although the Magnegro jokes would be endless. Problem is reorienting the amount of Magneto's past centered around being Jewish, WWII, all that jazz. But if they're going to bring it to modern years, they can't have him being a concentration camp...

The second on that list is what I essentially use Reddit for. I pick up a new hobby? (3d printing, resin printing, metal casting, metal foundry work, etc... most recently welding as I'm teaching myself that next) I go find the subreddit for it and read to learn. I know that I am using a...

My bet's on black mold... Which would be something of a unique hell to clear an entire underground dwelling of.... The "perfect geek dream variation" of this would be that I would build welded shipping container based modular housing with a basement level, and second story, then make sure the...

Is that wonder woman wearing a gold choker? I mean, we all know black choker == black belt in anal on the first date. What does a gold choker mean?

In my head I can see them re-cutting the movie where in the first part culty McFreakboy tears ass and "breaks into the multiverse", causing their version of flashpoint, and makes a single change in the past which causes a completely different person to become the Flash. And instead of a Barry...

So as I mentioned I have been looking/wanting to buy some land and build a home outside Dallas for a while. I know at this point I'm accumulating capital to throw at the problem and waiting for what I suspect will be an inevitable downturn/correction in the real estate market. I still poke...

Because you can never have too much advanced warning...

At the rate Marvel is going he's going to have a series on Disney+ within 2 years.... And now, and unrelated and obvious plant.

Well, it was also established in the comics that her muscle mass when in Jen form correlated to her hulk strength. So she worked out to improve her strength training in non-hulk form and it increased her hulk strength proportionally. (Yeah, I have actually read the comics, I'm actually a fan...

Yeah, I appreciate that part. I will admit already seeing another "Female version of a male character shows up and just does everything much better than him right off the bat and doesn't really even have to try very hard at it" story is going to grate on me. Jane Foster Thor, The chick in...

The bathroom placement tells me they have water run in that area/wall. Could have a proper water line run to the coffee maker.

So the fish sammich is an option now? cool... coool..... This looks a lot more to me like he wanted her to get a boob job, and she figured it would be cheaper to just get a doll of herself with a big rack for him to bang. And remember kids, we're in what is probably going to be a historic...

I wouldn't say all, but I would say many... But it also goes back to the "if it seems too good to be true" axiom. And yes, making 300% a year return on "farming" your crypto is, in fact, too good to be true.
