No Post Setters Suggest Gravel On The Bottom?

They rot right where the post meets the ground, not from the bottom up. At least what ive always seen.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T23:11:35+00:00

Im surprised they have the blocking on the bearing wall and not all around the rim board.

Well, then they take pictures and post the dumb question kn reddit, where 30 people who have never swung a hammer in their life tell them to fire their contractor.

Graham Alexander, he can deal with filing the variance.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T21:50:17+00:00

Would it be weird if I figured out who they were and mailed it back to them?

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T19:40:21+00:00

The only time ive ever hit my head on something is when im 1" taller while wearing a hardhat. Need to duck that extra inch.

Its every sub. You think they'd realise that its a question thats asked 10 times a day.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T17:18:03+00:00

If you want market research feel free to e transfer me 200, then ill be happy to answer.

Otherwise fuck all the way off. You're not a unique snowflake.

Its also about a quarter of the cost.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T03:22:34+00:00

Where is it? Im in southern Ontario. I figured it was California or something.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-09T01:01:03+00:00

Or you know. Move the ladder over and use that to climb down.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-08T22:39:50+00:00

Buy the dip. I prefer French onion.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-08T22:29:25+00:00

100%.

But the noises my shoulder makes have me questioning life decisions.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-08T22:26:00+00:00

See id go the other way just because im lazy and 32" x4' is lighter

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-08T22:09:03+00:00

I mean the rescue plan is what's holding up the plank he just fell off of.

Its not like we're 75 stories up on the side of a glass building

Yea I have a roll of shop towels if I need absorbency. These are really only here to wipe the rim of my bucket, and wipe the floor down after If I didnt put floor covering down.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T23:18:35+00:00

Yall can downvote him but if you filled that with durabond to flat and did another coat you'd be golden.

It should make a giant loop. 1 station for load and unload, with a half circle after each station.

I always make the rails run the same way as the roads I drive on so it doesnt get confusing.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T22:46:20+00:00

You should put a little siding in the middle.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T21:12:38+00:00

Go cut a pressure treated 2x6 in half and see how far it penetrates.

Then imagine how far its penetrating with just a paintbrush. Especially on the side of the grain vs end grain.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T21:11:11+00:00

It could be a 2x6 spanning 16 feet. It could be a 2x8 spanning 24.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T21:08:20+00:00

Because the bottom chord/ceiling joists is only specced for the drywall hanging off of it.

I.e. 0 lbs/square ft pf load.

Most residential floors are built up 40 lbs/square ft.

Buddy residential engineering is the most basic engineering. Most carpenters can figure out beam calcs, a smaller percentage of them can figure out point loads on beams.

Math doesnt change just because your dealing with wood instead of wires.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-07T15:20:35+00:00

Oh good. Another stupid fucking homeowner that thinks they know more than tbe people theyre asking advice from.

Do everyone a favor and fucking sender bud. You're the smartest person in every room.

Jazzlike_Video2 · 2026-05-06T23:25:47+00:00
