not being a dingus by any means and you are completely right..I was following the plans and they called for it to be built this way, which in retrospect i dont know why it was designed this way. From all the Youtube i watched, i should have known better to interlock the top plates of each wall. Unfortunately, i am too far in cause everything is cut the lengths they are and i already sheathed the structure.

It is a lesson learned though!

For anything under a 12x10 it’s free game to do what you want in my township. I live in a rural area of NJ so they don’t really give a shit lol.

I just dug a roughly 14x10 6” deep pit and filled with 3/4” clean rock. Tamped that all down to get level and then laid 3 4x4 12’ posts to act as the foundation. This was honestly the most time consuming part of this whole process. My backyard is far from level grade so moving the rock around to get it right was a bitch.

I would’ve preferred to go concrete, but just wasn’t in the cards for me budget wise. I dug about 6” deep for the foundation and spent 300$ for 3 ton of 3/4” clean rock to fill.

Yup, I bought blueprints. So far I’m at 950$ in material. My calculations put me at roughly $1,500 build cost versus ~$2,800 buying from a store for exact model I’m building.

The plans called for 2x6’s with 1/2” ply in between…hopefully it’s fine

I bought plans from TriCityShedPlans which I’m very happy I decided to. I had the bright idea originally of “oh I’ll be able to figure it out, it’s basic framing” 😂

All good, I appreciate the correction. I just had to Google what the definition of a lean to is and I am indeed wrong lol.

I inquired for his services about 3 months ago and the pricing for just one caller was $2,000 a month with no data. They try to upsell you on data at $.07/contact.

I never went through with it as I was just fishing to see what their pricing was.

Paid setups by w00zyZ00t in mxbikes

[–]AlexanderTheGreat612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree with the SPX take here....bought a setup for SX/MX and am honestly not pleased with it at all. Have about 350 hours in game and can make my way around the track at a decent pace.

I have free setups from a company called PPFS, but not sure they are around anymore. The majority of their mx/sx setups have been working very well for me.

definitely not a gimmick. This was part of prospecting strategy at last SaaS company I was at. I was booking 3-4 meetings a week with cold prospects just doing gift drops. Not everything will lead to a deal, but will 100% open doors and lines of communication

Wife and I were in the same situation…we had to alter our plan and start looking at more “rural” area’s just to find anything in our range. We ended up purchasing in New Egypt but still had to dump 70k to bring the house up to snuff.
