After ~hours trying to fix it, I give up on a persistently-leaky tubeless and take it to the pros in town. Instead of expensive, thin, and narrow rim tape, they use cheap, wide gorilla tape. Pushing down along the spoke holes and edges, so far so good!
Reenforced
The 40′ container’s roof was bowing in, which is a bit alarming when you’re 18’+ in the air. No more! Yes this looks janky, but it’s eliminated or at least minimized the metal bouncy house:)
weekly
Some done on weekly goals, but a whole bunch not. So, gonna keep the same list for this week. But! 2 good surprise upgrades.

With more screens, and maybe it’ll… Continue reading weekly

redneck tub
A great idea from my Moana, this tub is cheaper and more on-brand for me + my Trash Queen than some fancy cement one or some hoity-toity premade fiberglass. I buy 6 of them for ~$750 delivered + < $50 for the 6000 liters to fill the up.

Sketch packing of a bunch of metal for drive from La Paz to home. My shipping container tailgate held in place by some thin metal shims actually makes it!

My Moana took off today:( Some bullshit about being an amazing artist and needing to make some art;) I’m sad, but maybe I’ll be extra productive? Or at least try? Let’s set some goals for the week: source and order at least one pool (ibc or better; ideally 2-4) get quotes for new and used… Continue reading lonely (productive?)
