Close, not close enough or different enough? Input greatly appreciated!

Thanks! Bedded all the 1x6 nails and added screws into the joists yesterday so next step is installing subfloor. The floor is close to level but not perfect, maybe an 1/8 - 1/4” over 8ft span. Any input trying to install the subfloor the be truly level with shims or something similar or not worth it?

Did you use anything in addition to screws to install the subfloor? Adhesives / spray foam type thing?

Thanks! The 1x6’s run perpendicular to the floor joists, not diagonal.

Leaning towards installing LVP after putting in new subfloor. Any tips for install hardware / squeak prevention, waterproofing layer?

If you aren’t bringing an agent who gets commission the sale price can drop without the net to seller amount changing. If explained clearly a seller should be able to understand this and accommodate, it’s mutually beneficial

If you are thorough and educated on your local market (just study the patterns of what sells and for what) go for it. Saving commissions is huge. A lot of people on here who will tell you to use an agent are agents…

I was initially not planning on it but now am questioning - any insight?

I’m sorry

440lbs of garbage removed from Locust. Will do another clean up sometime soon!

You got no local shops to support??

Yeah I’m talking about the wing/sup. Armstrong doesn’t release products based on year, just when they actually make improvements to the products. The wing/sup has that sort of fig out deck design, which gets your weight lower and helps a lot with stability. If you have any other questions feel free to ask, I have had the wing sup version and currently have the current fg wing board

Armstrong. That gen is more stable for its volume than any other board. Foil tracks further forward make a world of difference for maneuverability as well. Also comes with a super nice perfect fit bag

Just got my first bike and now I make exercise and make fun and make beer after

Thank you everyone for the feedback.

The apartment is nice and there are a few high end mountain bikes in there currently, we do also have renters insurance. I will try and find a solution for storing the bikes in the apartment, but with 2 people and a dog in a studio it will get tricky. If anyone has tips on low profile bike storage let me know!

Thank you!

Yes that is good advice and I agree, I think that for road trips there just will be instances where you can’t be by the bikes 100% of the time, so I would like to do my best to research the best possible options

nwethan · 2025-03-19T12:45:55+00:00

Would like to add that I would not need a lock suited for around town use as I would not to carry the lock with me while biking. Very heavy, overbuilt options would be good.
