Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?
- Thread starter mimico_polak
- Start date
The poor starter on my bike after the BMW. I kind of liked the 3 button signals but having the right signal where start was on almost every other bike was far from ideal.
Thanks for the tips! Buddy got it opened.
Made a groove in one of his old slotted screw drivers.

This is in line with what I'd like to build...
Easy enough. I recommend not leaving the bottom shelves open like that. It will quickly end up as a disaster full of crap and cables. Either doors or vented doors to hide the crap (or the stupid electric or alchohol fireplace that is so popular and so bleh).
If you run it to the floor, construction is easier (you don't need to hide brackets to hold all the weight on the studs including the weight of a person or two climbing it as that will happen). Lots of torque on the wall, not much torque if floor mounted and wall clips just used to keep it from pulling away/tipping.
If you want to trade some money for ease of manufacturing, design around standard size doors and buy them pre-made.
I've got jigs for euro hinges and shelf pins if they help you. I wouldn't use shelf pins for the visible shelves but would probably use them behind the doors to allow some flexibility.
100% all of this. Pocket hole screws FTW.
For me it depends on the context. Our living room TV is mounted high above the fireplace but it is more for passively watching. In the home theatre it is at eye level when seated.

TV in the master is mounted high so missus and I can watch while laing on 1 or 2 pillows. The one in the living room is mounted just above the entertainment unit. The people on that sub reddit seem like stuck up **********.
I get that. Almost any TV mounted in a similar unit (especially those above fireplaces) is too high. However for passive viewing, mounting higher means you don't need to yell down in front nearly as often as people will likely be moving around. I don't hate it as much as I expected.
Basement TV with surround sound is mounted at proper height.
We don't have and probably never will have a bedroom TV. If I was considering it, I would seriously look at a projector aimed at the ceiling. TV laying down when you want it. Basically disappears when you don't. Obviously not the best projection surface but should be good enough for that application.
Thinking of adding a tv to the master , maybe one on the floor with a mirror on the ceiling so all angles work . Maybe I share too much on the internet.

My main concern is what happens if both are on at the same time? Second concern, how long will the dampers last with what goes through a range hood?
Can you do a remote fan? Put fan downstream of y and let it pull from both locations. Backdraft is impossible. Definitely an unconventional setup though. Wiring to trigger fan could be interesting (wireless anywhere switches?) I think with normal fans the bathroom doesn't stand a chance with kitchen fan on. Either the damper will stay shut or it will open and kitchen air will go where it wants. Relative restriction before and after y determines how much kitchen air ends up in bathroom.
I want a tv in the bedroom, wife won't let me. She knows I have a PS4 I want to connect there. No dice.
