Why wouldn't you just buy from a distributor or manufacturer direct? Why the 4th party?

because the store has a huge stock and the items I want arent listed in the online store, and the staff cant be bothered to go look for what I want. And I cant get it anywhere else because its rare

its perfectly legal btw

Have you tried ebay?

im not sure how trustworthy ebay sellers are

I dont trust ebay much but I may yet try it for part of my order

Ive had more success than failures with Ebay. Though ive had a few failures. Nothing major though

I think Ive found a decent seller and made the purchase

i looked everywhere else already, so it was either this or finding a proxy to buy it in england

England ehh, Was it a potato peeler?

Do you got a license for that there kitchen utensil?

nah Im buying ornamental plants

I think the Irish love potatoes more than the English

This is what I buy

Ehh, Do you got a license for that their trowel?

No, Im a badass mofo

@Splaet skip to the end to see what he turned it into

pretty fantastic imo

i love landscapes and stuff like this

Yeah it is I love it

It is amazing how they can make a small tree look like a giant

the same raw material he uses I collected 3 of today, some 40 or so year old hedge english yews

they would have been thrown away so i also saved them from the logpile more or less

i cut them hard back, now let them grow for a few years and then do as he did here

Im also amazed at the sheer monetary value he adds to those stumps

starts with (for the untrained eye) trash and some time later you cant get it for less than 1k

I used to watch videos of some bonsai school in japan a few years back. That stuff look super cool but I will probably not get into that stuff even though I have everything I need at hand. Just too worried about not watering it once and fucking it up.

I am more into dead trees or wood working as it is also called.

Im interested in that as a part of bonsai but I would not be into it on its own because I want a living and changing subject

if you practice woodworking what do you do?

made anything yet?

Mostly repairs and custom shelfs, racks and what not around the farm. I have a workshop and a good amount of tools. I've build some furniture but not really something I would put into my house quite yet.
I like to work with salvaged lumber because it feels good to re purpose and it's cheaper.
I am trying to get more into no nail no screw kinda stuff but currently I am renovating a house so I am a bit busy.

did you renovate because of corona, i heard a lot of people do that now because they cant travel so they figure they might as well

I started shortly before that but it helped me tremendously because uni is cancelled.

I've been at it for around 2 months now and I am 85% done with stripping the insides. I am doing the top flor only for now but I am taking everything out that isn't structural including heating and electricity.
The house is from 1860 and has an addition from the 1960s. I try to get it back to original as much as possible. Especially building material wise.

much respect. I hope you know how to make sure it ends up structurally sound

The shit from the 60's still smells like cancer despite being in there for decades. Fuck I hate plastic so god dam much.

hopefully no asbestos

The structure is fine.
Oh yeah haven't found anything yet but I am still wearing a mask because of all the dust.

We still have a ton of asbestos in some other buildings though. In roofs and ceilings. Thankfully all in cement fiber boards but still a pain.

Going all natural is a bit more expensive in some areas 2-3 times as much but I think it's worth it in the long run. Not only because of air quality but also it saves the next guy from going to the landfill.

do you mean you only use"natural materials" to renovate?

Yes

I mean it's a half timbered house with clay bricks to begin with so it hands itself to that fairly well.

i think avoiding stone and glass wool is probably a good idea

Yeah and epically plastic. I found alternative materials for most applications.

Hemp mats for impact sound insulation. Volcanic rock for insulating the roof and so on.

I am still going to use drywall for the interior walls but it's gypsum so that's okay.

i have some vermiculite and perlite for bonsai soil but they or similar products are used for insulation too

Yeah I am going to use perlite

It's not cheap and not the best insulator but since the top ceiling isn't super flat it's a good choice to fill in all the uneven bits.

i think i got 200 liter perlite for 25 bucks or so

is that expensive for an insulant?

Depends how thicc you make it.

The price is roughly the same here. I am going to do 10cm on average which isn't much but that would be around 13 bucks a m² and I have to do 130 m²

The ceiling is already like 10 to 15 cm clay staw and wood so I don't need much and I still want to be able to walk in the attic.

makes sense
