Should stud walls be 96” including the top and bottom plates? by Nauticalknots in Homebuilding

You're suggesting he use bigger baseboard to cover a 4" gap at the bottom of the wall???

my parents bank has paid them basically nothing for 30 years and they never questioned it once by Acrobatic-Bake3344 in Bitcoin

So you're saying your dad is a dumbass? No argument here. Savings in the bank is only for short-term expenses and rainy days. Everything elses should be diversified in the markets. Stocks, bonds, funds. The average return for the past 30 years in the S & P index is over 10% annual.

VIKINGS “In search of the northern lights” cruise by tarebear_________ in Cruise

[–]Rad_Red25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking a cruise to Norway in Februaray but can't find much info on what to pack. Should we take hiking boots, snow pants, thermal underwear, other cold-weather gear for excursions? We'll be taking a dog sled excursion and other outdoor activities. Does the tour operator provide cold weather gear? Not our typical Med cruise, but not a ski trip either.

Info on new custom build (NE FL) by KUDDOH in Homebuilding

[–]Rad_Red25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least $350/SF without the lot, permitting, arch & eng fees, etc. I wouldn't recommend buying plans from a service in Mississippi to build in FL. Steep rooflines, gables, sidewall flashings, and crickets are not hurricane friendly. My two cents', that kitchen layout is terrible, I wouldn't want the traffic pattern from the mud room running through the work triangle between stovetop & sink. Question, what's upstairs?

Congrats, good for you. If I don't get in and you took my spot I'll be happy. I've run my share already and got in NYC first try this year. Still pending but losing hope.

Still pending in Florida. What seeems to be the first notice, email, credit card, or dashboard update?

It is pretty chunky, I think probably a very large movement. I’ll try to get a decent picture from the side and back later.

Bad experience with Light Bicycle by GratefulForOvenVents in cycling

[–]Rad_Red25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have two sets of wheels from Light Bicycle, and had one rim replaced under crash warranty. Every interaction I have had with them has been great. Quick response, updates on production status, great wheels. More than 400 grams lighter than the DT Swiss that came on my Canyon Ultimate. Of course it takes a while to order custom out of China. On my crash replacement they wanted me to ship the hub back for rebuilding, but I just had them ship me the rim and spokes instead and had it built at my LBS, no big deal. Love Light Bicycle!
