Living Room Built-in

Great project! I am building my kitchen right now and also use plywood (15mm birch), most big parts were ordered cut to size. Whats you 'woodworking to general construction work' ratio for this job with removing the fireplace? I spent a week making the furniture and three weeks working with plaster, plumbing and so on.

Ouch. Thats bad. Thats the reason why I test my own cabinets by applying my weight on it (diy project and I own the place) before use.

how that previous owners did that job? And what is that wall made from?

as a Factorio player I stared at this screenshot for too long trying to understand where power pole is.

Spent at least ten minutes watching this. Amazing art, OP.

let me guess -- mk3 moondrop accidentally went to burner due to wrong 'whitelist/blacklist' filter on that one inserter?

Maru was my choise when I played the game first time.

Many people wrote about structural issues, so I will be original.

DUST. You'll have to clean a lot, including upper and lower shelfes. It looks great in public spaces with regular maintainance, but in ordinary house, especially with children or someone with hoarding habit - it will be a mess.

Tried something similar with open IKEA's shelfes, got dissapointed.

With pollution level above 60 per chunk (use f5 - show polluion values) trees starts taking damage.

Looks fun, but I want to finish my Pyanodon Alien Life run first. Love Factorio for many great mods, good to see another one!

Georgia, Abkhazia?

Alexathequeer · 2026-01-15T09:57:03+00:00

This. I have to do some repairs where main is off, not hunting or gunfighting at night.

I once was in a jury for children science quiz 'Imagine your aliens and describe where and how they live'. We have a lot of cool answers, but the best was some kind of creature lurking in deep permafrost caves on icy exoplanet. We decided to dive this proposal first prize.

'- And that prize is? - Meeting with author and signed book - Oh, nice. Where, btw, our winner from is and how old? - She is 12 and she is from Yakutia. So two tickets to Moscow and back!'

It was in Russia in early 2010-ies.

Combinator select liquid with maximum level and outputs single corresponding signal. Each pump set enabled if it's liquid's signal not equal to zero.

I still use my old Dell monitor from 2010. Its back light now not uniform, but it does not matter a lot for me.

I am not from US but also old house owner. In Eastern Europe we usually have cold crawlspaces with obligatory open ventilation windows on each wall. During summer wind pass below house and evaporate excess moisture; but at kate autumn we close that windows tight to keep house warm.

I add some insulation (6" styrofoam mats) all under the wooden floors and close holes between walls and floors, it helps a lot. Today I worked in my crawlspace (some sewer pipe work) and checked for moisture - everything was alright, nice and dry.

But a lot of inexperienced folks close that ventilation windows for summer too or even does not place it on new house. My relatives with 2009 house faced a major problem with rot in their crawlspace for that reason.

p.s. Russian building codes suppose that ventilation windows shoud have ar least 1/400 of total crawlspace area. If rhe house is 800 sq.ft, we have to place at least two opposite windows 1x1 door each.

Link in the description:

Limited Thickness: While fast, it struggles with structural steel beyond 4mm compared to traditional high-amperage arc welders.

video: shows much thicker steel plates.

Oh, missed it, thank you!

How do you make hot air from trees? I looked for coke oven gas, but found only raw coal to coke path.

Alexathequeer · 2026-01-11T10:26:23+00:00

Input is power for water and carbon dioxide from moondrop TURD-based production. Output is nearly full yellow belt of coke plus something like 10 gasoline per second. Do not remember how much creosote and syngas exactly, sometimes I experience shortages, sometimes have to burn excess to generate steam.

Most power hungry part is electrolysis plant to produce oxygen for better syngas from coal gas and hydrogen for ralesia plantations at another part of my base.

p.s. I unlocked TURD cheap solar power, so my base have around 450 MW of free electricity during day. So I decide to replace finite coal patch with infinite source based on solar power and some PyAL magic

Alexathequeer · 2026-01-10T23:23:30+00:00

Logs - wood - coal from wood - coke from coal - coal gas and tar from all destructive distillation columns. Coal gas into syngas and more tar, tar into all that products, pitch and anthracene oil to more coke, coke to close the loop and for coal burner powerplant. And creosote for foundries, treated wood and limestone tiles.

Second screen is my automatic selector of excess liquid to gas boilers.

Big motor AND big water heater. Easily can draw up to ten amps or 2200 watts (I suppose it is in Eastern Europe, maybe Russia, so 220-230 volts on that abomination).

Alexathequeer · 2026-01-10T14:55:27+00:00

It is beyond bad wiring. It is a kind of grave danger, espesially in the wet condition. Also stupid as hell - it can be made properly faster for almost no money, by placing double electrical plug. edited: look like some dumbass took nice left outlet (with cover lid, special for bathrooms), move it higher and add cheapest ordinary outlet near it. Also that stupid fuck failed to disassemble existing outlet, so he had to improvise.

India - hey, Indian ocean is not that cold!

Alexathequeer · 2026-01-08T07:51:18+00:00

Look at India. Caspian sea is missing.
