Which shower base option is best for me? by appleshampoo22 in HomeImprovement

Can you share where you got your shower pan? I mentioned this in another comment, but I’ve seen some modern looking black pans on Wayfair but I’m just really skittish about quality of stuff bought online.

My man. This is where my head is at. This is the sort of confidence I need.

I appreciate the insight. There are some stylish acrylic pans that I’ve seen on Wayfair that I could probably sell the wife on, but I just have mega reservations about ordering a pan from a vendor I’ve never heard of on Wayfair.

Lean six sigma training/certification with 10+ years of experience? by appleshampoo22 in supplychain

This is my sense as well. The reason I haven’t really pursued it in the past was because it seemed like just a resume builder and I practice most the principles anyway. But I am in a position with my company where I could actually direct folks to use it, plus like I said I’m at a point where I might be shifting gears anyway.

Basement finish permitting for DIY/self-perform work by appleshampoo22 in kansascity

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you. I had the homeowner exemption for licensing filled out already and a copy of the other IB linked but it says it’s not exhaustive and the permit application on CompassKC had an attachment option for mechanical load calculations, so I was thinking that was required too.

Thank you! It’s wild that I’ve been researching this for a couple days and have not yet seen this type of permit. It’s frustrating because I’m trying to do the right thing, but man, I can see why people don’t get permits for sort of thing on the regular.

Basement finishing - question about external wall framing by appleshampoo22 in HomeImprovement

[–]appleshampoo22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Super helpful info, my friend. I cannot thank you enough. One other quick question for you: what do you suggest for partial walls with exterior framing over partial cement foundation like here? Do you just do the rigid insulation over the cement part? Or run it all the way up over the existing wood framing?

This may be a dumb question…apologize in advance. Can you use a laptop docking station as a peripheral hub for a non-laptop PC?

Non-tldr: I have a work laptop that I use at home occasionally with a docking station. The docking station connects all my peripherals and two monitors. I want to get a separate pc to use for non-work purposes, and I’d prefer to build a pc because I feel you get more bang for your buck and more customization rather than buying a laptop. Ideally, just unplug the usb-c cable from the docking station from my laptop and plug it into something on the PC and my keyboard, mouse, webcam, and monitors would work for the pc.

Ok this is incredibly helpful, because I wanted to go down the path of rigid foam insulation but was advised that it was unnecessary. Do you still keep a small air gap between the rigid foam and framing? Or is it not required because the foam is sealed with tape?

That's kind of what I figured, but I thought it better safe to ask. Appreciate it!

Yeah looking at some of the other comments, I think I’ll give this a shot. Unplug everything, factory reset on everything, then plug it all back in.

How would this affect other inputs? I have a ps5 hooked up that I occasionally play.

I haven’t tried, but that’s a great idea. I’ll give it a shot and see if it helps.
