When it comes to the electricity situation, we’re looking at a much bigger headache. My former boss left behind a massive debt—we're talking over $50,000 just in principal. There is a way to potentially get that wiped clean, but there's a catch: we'd have to install an entirely new service connection, which is going to run us another ten grand or so. Then, it hit me—a genuinely bright idea just flashed through my mind. We could just install solar panels instead!

There might be a way to get some of it waived, but we’d have to set up a brand-new utility connection, which would probably run us another ten grand. Then it hit me—what if we just go solar and install our own panels?

Man, that kind of debt is enough to drive anyone crazy. But honestly? That solar idea is brilliant. You might even be able to score some used gear or find a corporate sponsor to help out. One thing though—how much sun does that roof actually get, considering it's tucked away in the courtyard?

Maybe the whole d42 crew will finally pull together; so far, everyone has just been flying solo. Anyway, let's catch up soon—I see you've already reached out to a few people. Are you heading through Seattle this Saturday before your trip?

Maybe the d42 group finally pulls together as a full unit; so far, everyone's been acting solo... Anyway, let's touch base later. I see you've already reached out to a few people. You heading through Cleveland this Saturday before your trip?

I’m not sure if I can make it, I’m already buried under a mountain of bullshit obligations.🤷
And don't forget—Jane's cap stays on the floor.🙏🙏🙏🙏

Finding collectors under 20mm is tough, and getting used ones under 10mm is basically impossible—I honestly think just paying for the connection is a better bet. And let's be real, finding sponsors for either option is a total long shot...

It’s probably easier to lift a collector off someone’s roof than it is to scam them out of a utility connection.😍

I really need to pull over somewhere in Austria on my way back from a business trip. 😁

So, any progress on the bathroom?

analogheron19 said:So, how's the bathroom coming along?

It's moving—slowly but surely.

The plumbing and drainage are all set.
We were actually thinking about tackling the tiling next.
Right now, we just need to grab some supplies (and deal with hauling sand—which is honestly the bigger headache) and pick up a new faucet from a shop in Chicago
For that part, we’re gonna need a van or maybe a small truck.

Angela Newman33 said:slowly but surely making progress

The water and sewer lines are officially in the ground now.
We were actually thinking about tackling the glazing work while we're at it,
but first we've gotta deal with hauling in some sand—which is honestly becoming a bigger headache than expected—and then grab that mixer from our buddies out in rural Pennsylvania.
To get all that moved, we’re definitely going to need to rent a van or a small truck.

I'm free to swing by tomorrow or Thursday if anyone needs me...

Think I could swing by the grocery store tomorrow and then head out to the suburbs to park the car on the patio until Thursday?
