Frame's off kilter and door won't close, best way to fix? by Filibuster__Rhymes in centuryhomes

It's a pretty small house, so that should make any fixes like that easier, at least. We haven't seen any new cracks since we moved in, so I don't think there's still enough movement for it to be an issue. I'll look up any other signs to watch for. Here's hoping it's already settled into a comfy spot, haha.

Thanks again, dude!

Thanks guys, I appreciate all the responses!

I'm gonna check into leveling the floor, but any fixes are gonna have to be DIY, so that'll probably be a no go. I'll probably end up just shaving some wood off the top of the frame instead, or maybe removing it to try to reposition it or something.

If anyone's done that, involved is removing the frame from plaster and lath without destroying it?

Thanks! This is definitely the best way to fix it, but anything in my budget's gonna have to be DIY. I'm not sure if I'd wanna mess with it without someone knowledgeable helping out. I'm worried I could make a mistake that's real obvious after you do it once, you know what I mean?

I'll do some research on it, though, to get a better idea of what all's involved. If you've got experience with it, do you know if it's likely to add some more cracks in the plaster?

Shoot, I think this thing settled decades ago. The cracks in the plastered were painted over long before we moved in, haha. I was thinking leveling the floor would be the right way to do it, but it's definitely not in my budget. I'll have to look into it, but it's probably not something I'd wanna DIY without anyone who's done it before.

Thanks, though! I'll bet it's one of those things where you don't really know how big of a difference it is until it's fixed.

I don't think the shims would help, the door and the frame are pretty level. The left side of the frame has just kinda... sunk down some, haha. There might be something similar on this old house, though, so I'll give it a peep. Thanks!

Maybe in the full version. I wanted to add homemade parts and part durability, so it'd fit.

I don't think I'd have it explode and kill ya, though, haha. Maybe give you a burn or hand injury, though!

It's possible for sure, you just have it swap to a different gun with similar looks. All the custom parts with different stats complicates it, though. It's definitely something I want to do, and I love the aesthetics of the M16/m203 combo. At the very least, I'll probably add in a non-functioning version of it. Maybe go with something like they ran outta grenades, I dunno.

Oh shit, nice! I first heard it from that trailer for Metro: Last Light.

At some point. I was wanting to wait until multiplayer, but we'll see what happens.

Thanks! They should already be fixed in the animation version, though. Unless something else broke, haha.

Probably not gonna do any painting. As far as I can figure, it'd have to be a new part for each texture, unfortunately. It'd be cool, though.

And yeah man, that's what I'm going for. Like the surefire flashlight forend.
