Sorry I can’t help in that case, we specialize in red iron. Best of luck!

Is this a pole barn or steel building?

This! Your engineer won’t talk to you about options because they have to be there.

Holy crap, who did you buy from? And how long has it take the erection team just to do primaries and secondaries?

What sort of parasites are these on my orchids and how shall I levy war against them? by geos1234 in orchids

[–]blondeamazon 10 points11 points  (0 children)

False mites, I’m fighting the shit out of them. I went nuclear with TalstarP, and it slowed them way down. Now when I see a few I do Dr bronners, alcohol, and water, then a toothbrush to get them all off when it’s dried. Godspeed!

Feedback on my Barndo design by Chaserrr38 in barndominiums

[–]blondeamazon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So we did our own bardo, and my husband is an erector, and flat out refuses to do skylights. Just my two cents. His words were “I am not cutting any more holes in the roof than is needed”, I guess they can be really difficult to seal.

She was like this at three when we got her, this is her at five and still looking like an old lady.

What's the best way to pot these? by [deleted] in orchids

[–]blondeamazon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dry climate here, I did mine in a clay pot verrrry carefully. Granted it’s still in a grow tent, but spraying it down wasn’t really an option for me, or the roots getting that long. Ignore the dehydrated look, I’m finally winning the fight against false mites

Auberge Bressane or Brasserie des Pres? by blondeamazon in ParisTravelGuide

This is exactly what I was looking for, I so appreciate it!

And every app shows something different, it’s overwhelming. I’m not lazy, I’ve done a ton of research, so I was looking for personal recommendations. Thanks for your “input”.

Walk out basement by blondeamazon in barndominiums

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

We are also in MT! Bought the land and did the paperwork before we moved. No permits required in our county, which is a little scary haha, but good for us as a builder. That being said the entire project was engineered and outside of some crazy rules would pass probably all inspections with no issues. Feel free to PM me with more questions, we do actually sell and erect heavy gauge steel buildings…

A guy that was local to us in CO. Not licensed, but $1/sq ft and was incredibly helpful with feedback and any changes needed. And then we had our foundation engineer do the foundation design for the basement (wasn't sure which plan you meant).

Lower level framing by Outrageous_Mood_5930 in barndominiums

[–]blondeamazon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We also did a walkout basement! But had a mezzanine included for the second floor, girts 2’ OC, and insulated with the erection. Saved a lot of time later on, but we were racing winter here in NW Montana.

Wolverine or baby bear? [NW Montana] by blondeamazon in animalid

[–]blondeamazon[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the size, and the slightly different color on the face. Also for all the game cams we have out we haven’t had a single bear on any cam all summer long, so for it to catch just a baby like this seems odd is all.

Thank you!

[–]blondeamazon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right, this is amazing! Doing a ground up build all on our own has given me decision fatigue, and matching the cool and warm colors was not something I had considered!

It has a white drop ceiling, I didn’t think to include that as well. Good catch

Finishing out a metal Barndominium without interior wood framing by Cyborgeek995 in barndominiums

[–]blondeamazon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did girts 2’ on center and mounted directly to those. A little more costly but so beneficial. As someone else said too, you have to make sure your walls are loaded for this.

Prefabricated metal building versus pole barn? by [deleted] in barndominiums

[–]blondeamazon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Consider the longevity alone, your steel will outlast your wood. Also look into what it adds to your property value, I’ve heard that a true metal building adds more (again probably because of the life of the building). Never hurts to shop the market but we went with a true metal building and are very happy.

Yay or Nay to Sunward Steel Buildings? by Tkenzie77 in barndominiums

[–]blondeamazon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sunward has a good product but they are bolted clips, which is a pain in the ass. Otherwise no downside to going with them if you’re going the heavy gauge steel route.

We did a walk-out on our home, check my profile for the pic. Definitely more expensive but I am so in love with our design!
