#15 a couple of those are decent ideas. I like the fork trick for hanging a picture. I like the tape trick for installing hooks to hang picture. The wood frame behind the couch is a neat idea if your couch backs up to the wall (I'd paint/stain/seal.... maybe). Pool noodle around the laundry is pretty clever but looks ghetto. Toilet paper rolls on the drapes is actually a good idea.

In university, Engineering courses have multiple lectures on how bad design will kill people & spinning machinery is NOT your friend.

In shop class in high school, the teacher was very clear that anyone wearing loose clothing around power tools/industrial machines is just stupid. You can't design away human stupidity. It's like that guy was trying to get caught in a machine.

Why not just write it on the fridge, itself?
SinfulDeviant
Because the coating on fridges are sometimes porous making it difficult to remove what's written.

#19 so a folding single wide / tiny house? How does plumbing and electrical hook up? And no foundation anchor means this thing is going to take flight in high winds
TheLastCircusBunny
#13 If you're wondering, this machine oscillates faster in one direction than the other. In this case, it rotates more slowly in the counter-clockwise direction, then abruptly rotates in the clockwise direction. The friction between the material and the spiral surface is overcome due to Newton's 1st law of motion, allowing the spiral to slide under and back. Think of a shovel full of sand that you pull back on suddenly, causing the sand to slide off.

#20 this is what Republicans want when they want to cut regulations. Save the business like $5 to have an emergency shutoff at the risk of the employee.
0RocketCat0
You watched the employee do that to himself. I'm not saying you're wrong about republicans, i'm saying it was just a matter of time before that guy got caught in a machine, regardless of regulations.
Illinifan88
No fuck that and fuck you. It was a lapse in judgment, sure. That doesn't mean you deserve to get your arm ripped off or worse.
Every machine like that needs an emergency shut off, because something like this WILL happen.
We live in a civilized society, despite Republicans trying to constantly rip it apart. Civilized societies believe in things like safety and the value of life. Put a fucking shut off on it.
0RocketCat0
I didn't say he deserved it. I said it's a moot point. Safety regulations and design are certainly important, but humans will always find a way around them.

#19 Sears used to sell prefab houses too
edasm
I lived in one. Built like a bunker. Not prefab, tho- more like a kit built by a builder.
unluckyandbored
Many of them are still standing, in fact!
Nellisir
Barns too. I'm in one now. Early 1930s 36x60 gambrel. Pieces were cut and shipped to the buyer, who assembled them on site.
KellyCrazyCatLadyinTraining
Please make a post about it with photos! That sounds interesting!
ArchMagos
My granddad is the reason my state recognizes a difference between prefab homes and mobile homes. His HOA was being a massive bitch about him having a prefab built instead of it being stick built and tried to use the "no mobile homes" clause of the HOA agreement to force the issue.
sundaymondayhippyday
Good on him!
MrSnuffleupagus172
Montgomery Ward also sold them….Many are still in existence and lived in, so guess they were generally well made. Now they are of historical and cultural significance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sears_Modern_Homes
derrymerbles
Super cool stuff!
DarkMagic1516
Idk if it was a prefab or a standing model but there was a home depot I went to a few times that had some sheds built in the parking lot to showcase, one of which was 2 story.
UWAGAGABLAGABLAGABA
Those sheds are 20k and could easily be insulated, plumbed, and have electricity installed. I've thought about it heavily.
ChicanoBatman
My grandparents bought and built a Sears Robuck home. Built it on a lot in Laguna Beach way at back when. It's still in the family and everyone pitches in to keep it alive and updated. It's actually on a walking tour. One tiny bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room. Hot as hell in summer, cold as Dickens in winter. We love it.

#9 ACAB. Fuck all copaganda, and those who post it
METROlD
Alternate story: Inside there is a single mother who is terrified of her abusive X and had the security door installed. Cops respond to an anonymous call and do this to her property without a warrant. They find a tiny single use amount of cannabis and call themselves heroes. None of the damage is paid for. The single mother is now living in a shelter.
MenloPart
"Find" cannabis.
SneakyTrojan
Yeah without knowing the structure around the wall, you could be structurally compromising a part of the building, but hurrr go cops

Came to say the same thing if its a retaining wall then the roof is coming down. Also these doors are also used to protect people from violence like women's refugees but I guess the cops want to kill them to ACAB

SuperfluousMeh
Oh that's magic, no worries
Krypet004
friction and momentum, move slowly in one direction and items are carried with it by static friction. rapidly move back in the other direction using the objects inertia to make them slide along, then repeat. you can use this to easily get pringles out of a can by holding it sideways and you won't have to reach into the can.
Krypet004
it might not be static friction at this speed, but the key is to move slower in the direction you want things to move, letting them gain more momentum from friction than they lose as you quickly move the mechanism back.
Krypet004
near the end you can see some start rolling, which reduce friction too much, so they added a wad of paper or something to block the rolling.
MenloPart
Why didn't they just pour the stuff into the box?

#19 how do they get the cardboard out from under the house?
0RocketCat0
It's....not a real box. They taped a bunch of pieces of cardboard together, and then spray painted amazon logos on it. Sorry.

They won't sell many spares from those cars if they keep taking them apart like that...
MenloPart
I'm sure there are many parts they could have sold, but this is faster.
I've read about people who purchase and strip used cars.
They end up making the minimum wage.
Of course, I've also read that of people who fix up and flip homes.
Type17
It’s not a great money-maker if you do it on a small scale, but doing it in a large yard where cars are stripped professionally and parts are labelled and stored indoors can be a good business- here’s a place in Ireland that break everything from tiny shopping cars to Ferraris: https://www.traynors.co.uk

#2 Technically, this isn’t welding. Lead is being melted as filler between two pieces, but the joint isn’t strong. Welding, by contrast, melts the surrounding metal itself to fuse the parts.

I think you'll find that is welding.

Square corners on the bedsheets when you make your bed are a sign of 'quality', at least according to some corners of the world.

#19 Deployable houses do exist. They are not 19k. They are also often very cheaply made and have massive issues with basic things like being air and water tight, and that doesn't even start on getting utilities hooked up.
butcherfan0301
Yup. Any foldable/ movable joint is a potentially catastrophic point of failure, and your ability to run plumbing through them is basically nonexistent.

DarkMagic1516
Idk how much they are rn but this video is from a few years ago, other then that idk how old exactly. they are more or less used for bunk houses in remote areas of work like for lumber jacks, but most of the time they just reuse old shipping containers for lodgings. As for the air and water tight part I feel like you can just use some caulk to seal the edges.
OnlyOneArman
The *outside* edges. One problem with these is that water ingress rots/rusts the insides out. By the time you notice, it's already scrap.
JinxRocks
The amazon link for it is dead, and the closest I could find is twice the price mentioned at $39K.

I can imagine the heating and cooling costs offset the money someone's saving buying this too.
Klaumbaz
Closed cell sprayfoam. It's not as bad as you think.
OnlyWantToSayOneThing
Iirc its not acceptable as the main waterproofing. It's a vapor barrier, but direct water contact is not advised. Tbh, if ypu do everything to code, you're just building part of the house with third party products. If that is required to make it draft or water tight, then it should be included in the kit.
Klaumbaz
your comment referenced temperature and cost to heat/cool. that's what i was responding to, not the waterproofing. Although closed Cell is water impermeable.
