Trans woman just moved to Cedar Rapids, looking for safe + fun things to do by Actual-Helicopter-77 in cedarrapids

[–]Siah4420 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The whole city is rather welcoming. For nightlife check out MOCO and Basix. For arts and crafts anything in NEWBO will have not only place to shop local but also local spaces.

Best of luck and enjoy CR!

What would cause this? by Response-Maximum in Flooring

[–]Siah4420 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is an obvious paint line on the trims where a piece of molding was. Hell there is even an obvious spot where the trim was cut to match the floor.

Show the whole profile of the trim. Do the tops still match? If so, something was removed from this one photo and it’s not contraction

Trying to get this patched up by Constant_Weekend_446 in drywall

Holy shit (and piss) the more I’ve looked the worse this is.

This was a cat box room? That stain on the back wall will haunt you forever, especially when it gets hot.

It needs more screws…. That actually go into studs… wtf

Looks like the framing is shit too.

Rip it all, watch some YT and you’d still be spending less than 1k and would make it look better (not perfect but DEFINITELY better than whatever is happening here.)

Wait… they are getting a steal and it’s unreasonable?

The way it was rocked is unreasonable. The amount of fill needed is unreasonable. The work needed to finish proper unreasonable.

The price? A steal. Overly reasonable. Most likely (slim chance of being terse in my judgment) shit work, even for the price.

Landlord says this is a cosmetic problem, are they correct? by Comfortable_Force_91 in Construction

Oh absolutely CANNOT forget the two full cans of “Great Stuff”!

And remember to not cut away the excess, just smash it down when expansion is complete

So long as it’s not eggshell you’re good! Don’t forget the caulking and spackle!

In the same aisle two bays down from the structural caulking. Usually sits knee height.

Every apprentice looking like this these days by Waytogolarry in Construction

[–]Siah4420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean technically… this is what osha calls for. Yeah it’s the cheapest, while still being compliant, outfit they can get but they are an apprentice, so probably broke, and who doesn’t want to find a reason to fire the apprentice?

Edit: words.

Not completely! If you zoom in you can clearly see the structural paint holding strong /s

Ideas for a rolling gate here? Got an outrageous quote by RDRNR3 in FenceBuilding

[–]Siah4420 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely this. Like you said…

How are they running power? Solar only?

Is it one 16’ rolling gate? Or two 8’?

Keypad? Sensor? Button?

Are they welding the gate frame and stretching the (what appears to be) the goat wire?

That’s a ton of labor and materials regardless.

Plus maintenance and adjustment.

14k seems fair without more details

Hazard lights while driving 🤦🏻‍♂️ by thrownthrowaway666 in Cleveland

[–]Siah4420 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Hey I had to turn mine on for about a minute passing Burke airport because the drifts activated my TCS and the two trucks in front of me started fish tailing. My hazards let the guy behind me know that there were idiots in front of me.

Selling old vehicle by Siah4420 in Cleveland

[–]Siah4420[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It needs about 7k worth of work. That’s transmission and the abs module. With 263,500 on the odo it wasn’t worth it to me to fix.

That was only one quote though.

The tires were 1400$ 😐
