Moving my dad's shed. (Advice? Roll on pipes? Furniture dollies?)

In this case, it's tubing sections from an old canvas canopy I had for the motorhome, and 12" corrugated from the recyclers. I need a third piece. They have more at $20/sheet but the Metro has no roof rack.

12-14x1 Self Drilling Hex Head screws w/ washers.

48sq ft of dry storage.

Since I was in a hurry and I didn't have the right link for the site to link it properly, here it is again:

He seems to use screws like the ones that you mention, which I am sure are similar to what I used on the greenhouse.

Those are designed for metal roofs.

If I ever do that again I will try to find screws with larger washers.

Working with coroplast, I feel like a 2" washer wouldn't be too large--or screwing through a 1x2, like I had planned with 5 mil plastic.

Here is the other video that I watched:

I am sure he also used screws with washers. He sealed the back with aluminum tape and left it like that.

How would you have done it?

I'm using half the original gable so it's five feet wide. One screw in each pipe connection (the corrugated holds it together). Aluminum tape on the holes from reuse.

It's just one curved bridge, no legs or walls.

I've seen too many units burn to want to work in wood here.

I left before 8 to see my clients in Holbrook. My 09 mom never responded, my 11 client wasn't able to work, but his mom didn't let me know ahead of time. My 12 and 1 clients have family members with pink eye. My 1400 mom said they aren't available in the afternoon anymore, they work during the week, and need to run errands in the afternoon, but somehow they are available in the morning.

Can't they run errands then?

I work all week and have 6 clients on Saturday, but since the 09 mom ignored me, I asked the 1400 family if they were available then.

Mom has been browbeating me to pick up A&W for 7 months, because the best fast food is the fast food that has normalized temperature in a moving car for an hour.

When my brother saw his burger he didn't want the nachos Mom bought him at the farmer's market, so I ate them.

I usually eat oatmeal for breakfast and I am fine, but I crashed after those nachos.

Mom insisted that I mowed the lawn.

She doesn't care what weeds, trees, or abandoned kittens are in her lawn, she tells me to mow everything.

I spent a couple of hours pulling all of the trees that I saw and all of the weeds that I could.

I had put it off because she has mushrooms. Apparently all that I can do about them is pull all of them, as low as I can, every time that I see them.

I did not, so they will be multiplying.

I quit at 8. It was dark and I had been wondering why she hadn't yelled at me to drop what I was doing for her to eat whatever she had made for dinner.

She hadn't made anything yet.

It was dark and there wasn't food.

I was going to shower.

She ordered me to turn around and mow in the dark, but when I walked through with the extension cord I had left in the back yard she announced that dinner was ready.

No it wasn't, she made salad.

I kept hoping that I could still go out and work on the shed, but I hadn't bought another 2x4.

I went out just to see if I could fit a 2x6 and a 2x4 in the back corner or what.

The trusses lower the ceiling 8" in the middle.

However, I realized that, while I was smart enough to install 2x4s at the top of the side sections to attach the drywall, I wasn't bright enough to do that in the middle.

I can use drywall clips or more roof edges, but I am going to cut out the insulation, and put in 2 2x4s on each side, so I can screw the joist to the top one, and drywall to the lower one.

Cutting installed fiberglass doesn't seem idea, but what can I do?

Cutting installed fiberglass doesn't seem idea, but what can I do?

Wear a respirator and skin protection?

It's only 80&deg at the moment, but since last weekend I've added the weather cover over the whole length of the East side, and I've hung tarps over the windows on the South and Southwest and it's much more livable.

I found the Moon disks I wanted to cut down to fit the Metro!

[Xist]

I was just thinking about trying to cut it without squishing it, like you would before installation.

However, the top of each piece is separate from the main section, so I just need to pop the staples, and I can set it on the floor, squeeze it with a 2x4, and trim it.

Someone posted a lowered manual 2000 EX and I had mixed feelings. That probably belongs in Chorizo's thread, or at least the one for the 2002 Civic. Maybe the one about Gramps being totaled and trying to find an accident-free car?

The think is, I want to preserve this for posterity, but not in Chorizo's thread because I have feelings.

Selling the old girl.

$2000 fully willng to negotiate with serious buyers or trades

I have held onto Chorizo for 3 years even though it needs a ton of work and I don't have any idea when I will be able to work on it, but $2,000 for an EX the same year, lowered, with 237,000 miles, and with a hole in the block?!

Clearly the seller has a hole in the head!

One seller once said "Well, just throw a new engine in it!"

Then we got into the awesome cycle where someone admitted to never doing something, but insisted it was easy.

[freebeard]

It's lowered. Do it.

Would water glass in the radiator be enough?

For the 2002 LX?

Someone already tried something like that and I paid Crazy J to back-flush it.

I removed four fence boards and removed some trees growing between the fences. Then I was able to carry the new 2×4s around the 2002 Civic.
I removed the insulation in the top of the back wall, installed 2×4s as high as I could, installed shorter 2×4s vertically on top of that, installed 2×2s against the back wall, and then two sets of 2×4s between the rafters.
Cutting a trapezoid like I did in the front would have been better because I would have had more area to secure drywall, but I don't know how secure the corners would have been.
I have wood everywhere I can without removing more insulation.
