For such a small space the hard pink extruded foam would probably be best. I don't know what you mean by health issues though, asbestos has been illegal in the USA as residential insulation for decades

>>1936413
spray foam is the best if you have not started your build yet and its a gutted cargo van

Whats the point of doing all these threads if you're going to ignore advice and keep posting treads asking the same question? At that point it's not even about drawing anymore you're just schizoposting.

Again, there is no hidden secret technique that will let you get it right without effort, you need to practice. Now fuck off.

Insects are easier to breed and maintain in a smaller home. They also provide more nutrition by weight.

if you use potatos or rubarb you do not need sunlight

How retarded are you anon? Tubers require light, perhaps not full light, but at minimum 6 hours daily. You weren't one of the "gardeners" at the CHOP zone were you?

>>1936338
>Is there an easy way to calculate the airflow I will get through it?
If you use two battery powered computer fans like you say then you can easily maintain the temperature of a cabin year round. I live in a zone where we have snow in the winter and 90F or higher in the summer, and I use two computer fans to maintain the temperature in a 2 bedroom house.

>>1936338
For such a long run, you should use a pipe with a smooth interior. Corrugated tubes will cause a pressure drop due to turbulence along the way.

>>1936338
PC case fans won't do shit for that length of run. Look at marine fans, they're designed to run off 12V DC.

>>1936387
There are also high powered fans that run directly off of mains power.

>>1936338
if your pushing out cold air you will make the original room colder thats how refrigerators work

make the cat "run away", maybe learn some anatomy while you're at it

You can reglaze it to keep the wind and rain out, and apply caulk to the top and sides of the trim outside. It won't undo the damage that is already done. I would be concerned that water may have gotten into the insulation below the window. Clean all the mold you can see with bleach as a bare minimum.

>>1936329
There's no saving a window thats old and moldy, sorry. You patch it and caulk it and it will just develop new holes. The only sane option is to replace it. It's not hard to diy, so you end up just the cost of a new window.

>>1936329
Nice, great job, but you used the wrong pic in the OP. It's supposed to be the wojack guy looking slightly sick, so you can use the one of him looking sicker next week when you post it again. At least you waited about 6 months this time instead of three weeks. Are you a bot, or just from /b/?

>>1936273
Systems tend to fail more in the absolute hottest and coldest parts of the year. Attics at 150 degrees fahrenheit are no joke. You can still wear your knees out too.

If you're in residential, the worst part is dealing with shitty homeowners tho

Went for an 18 month AAS hvac program in 2008.. today make 60.00 hr as a comfy building engineer. It's been good for me. Glad I didnt decide become a service cuck

How did you get the building engineer gig? I presume you had to jump through other hoops besides going through the AAS hvac program.

Chain drive? Change the gear ratio to reduce the top speed.

>>1936207
Yes chain drive. So bigger sprocket?

Add about 1-2" to the throttle cable, such that even when it's wide open it's only at about 50%.

>>1936213
Depends. Since we don't know what your setup is I can't confirm which sprocket you need to change or if you need to change both. You want to make the sprocket on the motor smaller in relation to the sprocket on the wheels.

Strangely enough, with covid isolating everyone, everyone's become obsessed with upgrading their homes.

... but of course the modern generations are fucking useless at doing anything themselves... maybe they're too scared of trying, I don't know.

Either way it results in a fuck load of jobs waiting to be filled.

>>1936100
>I'm 23 and I hate my construction job. I'd much rather go back to industrial maintenance.

How do I get into industrial maintenance? I hate construction too fren.

Speaking for the southwest, there has always been a serious dearth of quality workers in construction. It is only because of covid that people are actually paying attention to it now. The trades themselves are for those who decided college, or even high school, was not their thing. Imagine the resulting workforce. I was in it for about 20 years until roughly 2010. There is a reason all workers speak spanish.

unironically there has been a huge drop in cheap illegal Mexican labor

one part stun, two parts gun. it's obvious

Stun gus are basically just a simple inverter and a little potted transformer. The first part is very easy but the second part would be tough to do yourself since it needs to be both small and well insulated for the high voltage.

You could just buy one of those "high voltage generator" modules from Alibay.
They're just stun guns without the case and battery,.

>>1936067
did you bother googling first? there's 100s of projects. literally google "diy stun gun".
But no, you won't make it, since you can't figure out basic shit like how to research.

You can make a sort of decent one out of a pulsed switching circuit and an ignition coil.

Just buy one. The real problem will be making a housing that works. Otherwise you'll be trying to whip a bunch of bread boards out of your pocket and what not. Buying one online is the cheapest option

>>1936064
Doesn't the battery last like only 5 minutes? I can't imagine you get through even one project without having at least three of those things charged.

>>1936296
Nah. An impact driver will go through quite a few deck screws on a 2.0Ah project, you would be surprised. Not sure how long the 1.5Ah packs would run cutting metal with a hackzall, but you can easily get thru most afternoon projects on one charge with 12v drills and impact drivers. The M12 tools are definitely tech tools though, whether you’re zipping off a bunch of electrical panel covers or dealing with car engine covers and trim pieces, you can easily get a couple days work out of one charge.

The 12V packs are still 60% the power of the full size, so one of the 6.0Ah packs will run nearly as long as a 4.0Ah 18V pack, and 4.0Ah 18V packs in good health hold a whole lot of power, even when running saws pretty hard.

>>1936302
I have a 3ah for my ryobi drill, but that barely lasts 2 hours of constant use. I really find it hard to believe those packs are anymore than .5ah, much less 6.

Their hand tools are good but never was a fan of their power tools.

>>1936305
>.5ah
You have no idea what you are talking about

And if you’re running a cordless drill continuously for 2 hours without letting off the trigger, you are likely using the wrong tool for the job.

Save yourself some bongbux and buy a second hand 9 inch makita grinder and a cheapo 2 pack of blades for 20 squid usually last me about 5 100sqm block paving jobs I'm assuming that is what you have to cut, they really aren't that hard

>>1935948
Patents are a waste nowadays anyway, unless you're a global corporation that can use the leverage against individuals
If you decide to try and sell something, your goal should be publicity and speed. Be the first to bring it to market, get it known as "your" product under the name you came up with and the ones you make are the real/authentic ones. Because China is going to make them too, there's nothing you can do about it, but if you're a month ahead of them and everyone uses your trademarked name to refer to it you're still set.

I was honestly looking for something like this available on the market ready to throw out some coin to purchase one, and couldn't find anything at all... So fuck it, I built one instead!

Start by improving things that already exist and you'll end up inventing a few things along the way.
>t. did this

>>1935890
As long as you provide the same voltage yes. Your autism and lack of details doesnt make any of this clear, you obviously will hurt yourself based on your questions and to boot, battery extending cases exist.

Similar example: https://punkcase.ca/products/punkjuice-s20-ultra-battery-case-4700mah-fast-charging-extended-power-bank-high-capacity-screen-protector-intelswitch-slim-secure-and-reliable-compatible-samsung-galaxy-rechargeable-military-grade-dual-layer-protection-s20-lifetime-exchange-regular-black?variant=31370793484357&currency=CAD&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google+shopping&gclid=CjwKCAjw_sn8BRBrEiwAnUGJDiv-wrBZoe6BIDQPvhAdS6khIewSHgoJgMeKGrra_WclFWRHhWnrORoCJ8cQAvD_BwE

Yes. See pic

First test working so far on a burner phone.

>>1935897
What details? This is a general question. You're missing the point. I don't want a power bank, I want to replace smaller Li-ions with higher capacity batteries that can be swapped out. I intend for the devices to last longer and never need to be plugged in for charging (but retaining the capability). I have a lot of 18650s and 18650 chargers. This is not just for phones.

>>1935913
That is for women and homosexuals
Drill goes in HARD AND DRY

Your local machine shop probably outsources bulk sharpening even though they can do their own work. I'd copy success and find out who yours uses since the work is cheaper by far than new tooling. That's why my machinebuilderbro outsources most of his shops sharpening. It's not worth tying up a machinist.
A fine thing I learnt from the pros is what they DON'T DIY. Hand sharpening mangles a lot of tooling during the learning curve so there's that.

>>1935830
Its a head for a T-drill there expensive as fuck this isnt the one one i have this is a pic i found on the internet the one i have is dull as fuck though I might just take it to a machine shop

>>1936042
It's worth making friends at your local shops anyway and that's an excuse to come socialize late on a Friday. Machinistbros are great to have and if you become one you may end up working with/for them. If you're a computer geek you may barter favors. I reload my machinistbros business and personal PCs and did minor stuff like convert his old serial port connection on his turning center to a modern USB drip feed setup. I got mill and lathe time until I bought my own and he lets me grab nearly any scrap I want because he knows it's only what I'll use.

>>1935924
Also if you rekt a drill bit you can just keep trying over and over again. End mills, router bits saws. Not so much. I do however sharpen my drill bits, but I only use them for rough work after than. Putting bolts through holes. That's bout it. Probably can't sharpen one good enough to tap.

It could be done in a couple of days if you had some labor to help you. With no /diy/ experience it might be beyond your skill level. I might start by looking for premade or ready to assemble things and then just finishing the interiors.

>>1935791
I build a few sheds op
Normally I go for 38 63 cls HIGH pressure treated (green not yellow) all round, concrete base with plastic spacers to keep the timber out of the wet.
Cladding is where they get you, feather edge or stacked sarking keep the cost down.
You buy a kit itl cost about the same but much much thinner timbers and wobbly.
If you want all nice doors your better off with a kit probably but second hand upvc doors and windows are easy to fit and can be seriously cheap.

then just bolt your motherboard to a piece of wood and bolt the fans to that too
>i only care about function

>>1935723
Double sided tape will be stronger than glue.

>>1935908
The cut edge can be hidden with u-channel trim specifically for case modding so it might not look horrible as long as OP can cut relatively straight.

>>1936027
that would impede function
>cuck window
its for airflow you brainlet, not RGBT lighting

>>1936032
how would bolting shit to a block of wood and just letting it sit out in the open "impede function"
they even make "cases" like this
