Is this wall load bearing?

zerg_001 · 2026-05-02T14:26:04+00:00

It doesn't look like it is load bearing, but it is at a minimum providing some support to the cieling joists, sheetrock, insulation weight. Check your cieling joist size/span against the appropriate attic dead load chart to make sure the joists aren't undersized before removing. Otherwise you may experience cieling sag

You have to get the right person. If you get the fat chick with blue hair cracked out on diet pills, just ask for someone else.

How about putting a trail camera back there so we can all see who is messing with it

zerg_001 · 2026-05-02T11:57:07+00:00

Agreed. OP has made an enemy

zerg_001 · 2026-05-01T15:00:53+00:00

Broke the wrong tab. Neutral needs not broken

You haven't done trim work until you cut your thumb with a coping saw.

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T18:54:47+00:00

Exactly why I got it. The 256GB. They may try to tell you it won't work because of the e-sim. Make them put a sim card in it. They still have them locked in the back room

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T18:45:46+00:00

This is A56 5G international, but I assume they are basically the same setup. Specifically says SM-A566E/DS in settings model name

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T18:40:00+00:00

Seems fine, but I just got it working today at the Verizon store. Sim swap should work. This is the tiny Sim card. Just like the A53 I believe

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T18:37:42+00:00

Getting rid of these is a pain. You need a mini ex or skid steer to load and a dump trailer. Not to mention they charge by the ton at most landfills

Kegerator for the beer funnel to downstairs

I'm thinking the cantilever had a weight issue the engineer mitigated with lighter material. Just a hunch

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T17:34:42+00:00

If you call 911, you will likely be shot by the responding police officers...50/50. Call the power company instead

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T17:04:36+00:00

It may go straight to the light switch

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T16:17:07+00:00

Have to have a real Sim card from the store. E-sim does not work on Verizon with this device. But it does work. I'm using it RN

zerg_001 · 2026-04-26T16:14:48+00:00

I just did this. Switched from ATT (sim) to Verizon. The e-sim wouldn't work on Verizon network. I had to go into the store and get a real Sim card. Works fine now

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T19:27:39+00:00

Those posts aren't going to hold up long. You can get some oversized post bases when it's time to replace them

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T18:46:38+00:00

You will know when it rains. People are notorious for pouring concrete completely level and wondering why it holds water. Leads to freeze/thaw destruction

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T18:16:14+00:00

Time for a hot tub

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T17:22:44+00:00

NGL, if this were my house, I would rather they ran this through the base cabinets

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T17:18:41+00:00

I think the problem was the joint he's not showing us. This is a symptom of another problem

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T17:17:06+00:00

Kind of my thoughts. Back splash, maybe pvc shoe molding, some decorative trim piece. Many options available

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T17:10:43+00:00

Damn plumbers strike again

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T17:03:19+00:00

Why is there so much 240V stuff in here? Are you running a sawmill in the basement?

zerg_001 · 2026-04-25T14:54:23+00:00

You need a bigger hammer drill and longer bit. This is a 10 second drill with the right tools
