/diy/ - Do It Yourself

The construction quality of the average American home seems to be on par with a European barn.
They look like they're made out of popsicle sticks and cardboard.
What about fires, termites, or strong gusts of wind?
No wonder American homes are always burning down or getting leveled by storms.
They're literally built like movie sets.
In Europe we use stone, brick, steel and concrete.
Americans actually take pride in owning and living in these tinderbox termite food barns?
