>AND I WANT TO ADD AN EXPOSED BEAM RIGHT HERE EVEN THOUGH IT IS LITERALLY JUST FOR AESTHETICA
first post on here to make me actually laugh in a while well done
>home makeover show
>they're badmouthing carpets and 80s decor again
It's all so tiresome
>I painted the ceiling for you while you were busy, honey
>did I do a good job?
How do you respond?
carpets in the bathroom is literally hitler
>I just like the way the shag carpet feels on my feet, not to mention it makes the room feel comfy
>YEA NAH, WE'RE GONNA NEED TO REPLACE EVERY SQUARE CENTIMETER IN THIS HOUSE WITH SOME NICE STERILE HARDWOOD
I want out
Only retards would want that. The moisture would never leave until it's removed.
Hardwood in living rooms sucks. Feet are always cold
Exactly. I'm scared if I remove the carpet around the toilet I will undercover decades of accumulated dried piss particles covered in shit. thanks 80's architects you dumb fucks
>pleb doesn't have heated floors
>retard who never heard of a rug, or slippers, or a space heater
l2comfy
my living room is fine and i’m in a pretty cold area, just turn the radiators on div boy
I fucking love that movie
Dammit user, your little stunt with the sheet sander has got the supervisor breathing down my neck!
>unlicensed electrician
>"yeah, I can do it"
...
Wouldn't that be a joist?
THATS IT, YOU'RE OFF THE WORKSITE
TURN IN YOUR NAIL GUN AND BELT
[removes belt]
AND YOUR OTHER BELT
Fun Fact. I haven't seen it since it came out on vhs.
>His methods are a little.... unorthodox
On a serious note, be very, very wary of all contractors. They could easily take your money and leave the job half finished. And even if they do a decent job, they could easily file for bankruptcy in 5 years and you'd be shit out of luck.
>mfw I'm going into carpentry and will rob millennial soyboys blind
They have never touched a power tool in their lives and can't even identify a 2x4. I'm gunna be rich bois
No, a joist would typically be supporting some sort of decking. The OP image looks to be a non load bearing beam.
>unlicensed gas engineer
>come home to a funny smell and a hissing sound one day
No. That's a beam. Joists are numerous and under the floor.
OP here you are correct
>millennials
>buying houses
good luck man, doesn't sound too promising to me
It helps to do some simple research on the project you want to do. That way you won't be easily swindled.
There are ceiling joists though pretty sure
>OP makes based meme thread
>morons just talk about home makeover shows
*block your path*
the legendary property brothers
did you know there's a third?
Couldn't that be a truss seeing how it it functions only in an axial way?
i’m enjoying it the thread has become comfy
Yes, that's true. But again, they'd be numerous.
>the painting skills of a woman who has never done a day of actual work in her entire life
Is this supposed to be a joke?
I know
They're kino
These are the guys who caught Brock Turner right? Weren't they on one of those two-people bicycles too?
>there's a third
A third brother or are they triplets?
Hardwood is the GOAT floor choice, fag.
*saves your house*
Jesus fucking christ that's not how you fucking paint.
THAT SHIT WOULD LOOK SO FUCKING BAD. YOU'D HAVE HALF CIRCLE FUCKING RANDOM ASS PATTERNS AND SHIT. NOT ONLY THAT SHE'S GOT FUCKING GOOP AND SHIT SO YOU'D HAVE A GODDAMN RICE CRIPSY FUCKING LOOKING CEILING AND SHE DIDN'T EVEN FUCKING TAPE THE GODDAMN CORNERS
MOTHER FUCKER GODDAMNIT I'M A FUCKING CARPENTER AND THIS SHIT PISSES ME OFF
a truss would be the entire thing, the beam wouldn’t be part of the truss since there are no forces acting on the beam other than deflection due to gravity which would be ignored if you calculated the macaulay function of it anyway
Actually I've been told that the recent trend is there are not enough people going into construction anymore so there will be raises and job security as long as we keep the mexicans out. I might have to move north but it will be worth it.
>technically, that's a joist, bruh
Ahh I misunderstood. I thought he meant the whole thing.
Also I can hack atms if we need more materials. Anyone got any heroin. that's how i get paid.
porn when?

>tfw you're almost done with grad school and you probably should have just learned a trade
A truss is the roof framing member which carries the slope of the roof from wall to wall. OP's image is showing a beam on the interior of the structure, below the ceiling.
>few years back
>start noticing wet spots around skylights
>a few days later it rains
>over a foot of my ceiling caves in and gets paint dust all over the place
Never buy a house with skylights my friends
a third brother and he dresses like an emo high schooler
what are you
her technique is terrible.
>ywn live in suspiciously white-looking small-town Mississippi while these two are your bffs and do a shockingly good job of renovating your $40,000 3,000 sqft home
This
Tape is for pussies. Learn to cut, my man.
see
pass she seems like she wouldn't bleach her asshole
he's a helpful buddy
My brother just got his sky lights covered and it makes his house look dark and unnatural. It fucking sucks, like you have to build rooms around the skylight or with windows or something.
Minnesoooooota accent is annoying
>thinking you can heat hardwood floors
Nice going retard
a carpenter.
As the US continues down this service based economy (and with automation wave coming soon), blue collar work will be at a premium. You just have to give up free time and a healthy body.
just warp my shit up
My carpentry instructor spends entire class times on his pc in his office. I always thought he was on Sup Forums. You just worried me for a second
Ally to Good
Nightmare to You
It really does blow, only time it's cool is when there's lots of snow outside and it creates a nice comfy dim lit look.
>mfw any time a full moon comes out and glares all night
How about regular socks. You don't have to walk barefoot all the time
A-Americans can't possibly do this... can they?
>a healthy body.
If you lay off the heavy drinking and smoking and learn how to properly lift and carry things, you'll have a serious physique, you'll have actual real world strength not gym/glamour strength.
It could be worse than Sup Forums...
No, they wear shoes indoors. They buy seperate pairs of shoes just for sleeping
I don't, because it pretended that pic related was attractive. I don't care if it's the 80s, a goddamn literal witch simply isn't attractive.
Not to mention actually having a good lunch while working instead of whatever you can get your hands on.
no... you can't mean...
Got to get me a jap waifu to make healthy lunches instead of going to taco bell every day
American women always wear heels to bed, even if they don't wear them during the day.

Welcome to the headquarters, make yourself at home.
the best thread on Sup Forums is about joinery
What is this loose cable doing in the ground?

>Family has to mention repeatedly that they are in fact vegan

This was an actual fucking episode
