An Update From The APO

Cozy, but you can make it work. I like the little windows above the door.
That blue-green-turquoise color looks right out of the late 1950s / early 1960s, my dad painted everything with it back then.

I’m not huge on the color, but the paint is fresh-ish… and it’s growing on me.

The house is in remarkable shape. We are redoing the floors and the kitchen… and I’ve done some electrical… but otherwise, it’s just a bunch of cleaning and detail work.

Now I'm getting Travel Ads for Hawaii... *shakes fist at Google.

希望您爆炸了...一张胶合板200美元...我听到了吗？

Very interested in that Flooring you got there... images etc... glue, floating, cutting etc.

HAVE A GREAT TIME there...

来自科罗纳多的阿罗哈。

Having lived on Oahu some 40+ years ago I can begin to appreciate the difficulties you are living in. At current prices, I can imagine that used pallets are in short supply.

像您的棚屋一样，单壁热带建筑在大陆几乎是未知的。

我发现单墙结构令人着迷...我认为最常见的是1 x 7材料？我的是1.75英寸厚的红木。从我发现的东西来看，这座房子是在1958年或9日建造的，使用定制的西尔斯套件。无论谁把东西放在一起做得很棒。

我必须谷歌搜索：

Up until the mid-1970’s, single wall homes were most common in Hawaii construction. You may not be aware that there are significant differences between single wall home and double wall homes.

Single wall homes are constructed of exterior walls that are built of redwood 1”x8” tongue and groove planks. These planks are joined up edge to edge vertically in order to construct the wall. Once constructed, these exterior walls become both exterior and interior surfaces of the home.

单个墙壁房屋的电线在墙壁的内部表面上运行，并用木制成型装饰覆盖。

Single wall construction was popular in Hawaii due to the climate. Since heating a home is not necessary here and wall insulation is not needed, it became the home of choice.

夏威夷的许多较新房屋都是像您在大陆上发现的那样建造的。这些双墙房屋包括带隔热层的干墙内壁。同样，电线在外墙和内壁之间运行。

Single wall home in Hawaii have ceilings made from sugar cane to insulate the heat trapped in the roof. The joints of the canec panels were cover with batten strips.

Also, many single wall homes were not built on concrete slabs but rather elevated above the ground. They were supported by foundation blocks with a termite block and pan to support the 4x4 leg post. The windows were usually the jalousie louver type which provided 100% ventilation when fully opened.

电线运行是从Redwood精美加工的。最终，我将不得不构建一个路由器桌子来制作自己的桌子。

整洁的东西。我的理解是，红木天然对白蚁有抵抗力，这是一个大问题。
我不知道Sears很晚才从事建筑套件业务，我认为这主要是战前。也许夏威夷有所不同，因为它与美国其他地区的材料供应隔绝了。

From what I understand, there was a surplus of kit buildings left after the war in Hawaii… and these kits were bought into the 1960’s.

是的。在夏威夷，福尔摩山白蚁是一个巨大的问题，但他们不吃墙壁。不幸的是，通常支持房屋其余部分的柱子和横梁通常是FIR或其他更常见的树林，而白蚁最终会与它们一起陪伴。

撕下旧房屋以用现代双墙重建，通常涉及小心地将红木T＆G拆除以转售。大约15年前，一个好友进行了一次小的维修，当时有一个1x8板条为50美元。我们认为胶合板很昂贵。

Something to watch out for is the roofs are often not adequately tied to the rest of the house. Every single hurricane that comes through there is shown on the news with a video of yet another roof that is lofted away by the winds. A small investment in Simpson Strong-Ties will go a long way on the older homes. The original nails are probably about rusted through by now.

地板是原始的还是在它们上面有某种层压板？如果它是原始的硬木...那东西很厚！容易修补，看起来很棒。

它是如此简单，但它起作用。我希望我们仍然可以建造这样的房屋。红木将花费德州$，但如您所见，它持续了很长时间。

如果您需要弄乱天花板，只是为一些讨厌的东西做好准备，Caenic中有各种有毒的东西，它的基本上是甘蔗的压力板，这意味着它将掉在您手中。

So, Atomic Industries is moving to Hawaii?

看起来不错。这种结构很有趣。当我开始使用时，我的棚子并不大，我想12x18？T型在我们1926年的房屋中尺寸。您可以在那个尺寸的商店中完成很多工作。

我知道你在那里做了什么

That LifeProof flooring from HD is a great value. Just used it for our main floor bathroom remodel and it looks fantastic. I'm all in for under $200 for our small square footage.

期待您的更新！

Looking really good Ryan.

我们的一些好朋友刚刚在普林斯维尔买了一所房子。（从北加州搬家）他们还没有搬家，并计划先翻新。他们会带来一个昂贵的惊喜。

我们真的很幸运。我们在11月购买了房屋所需的99％的材料。所以，那还不错……

What I didn’t do, however, is order materials to build out my little shop… and that sucks… I‘d really prefer to use Baltic birch ply for most things in there and I think 4x8 sheets are going for over $250 right now.

如果you don’t need 4x8 sheets and you can figure out roughly what your cuts will be, this store in AZ will custom cut for you and mail them to you via usps. USPS has maximum size of 130 inches combined and 70 pounds weight limit. This may or may not be something you would consider.

How’s the lizard situation? We had a shed at our Kailua home (we just moved back to the mainland recently) and it was so lousy with lizard poop that I really didn’t use it for tool storage too much. Instead I had a metal cabinet in the carport, and kept a bunch of mothballs in there to keep the beggars out of my stuff.

Gecko doo doo ads special mojo to whatever it lands on.…and scrapes right off!

我听说许多夏威夷居民保留了一个“房屋蜥蜴”来控制昆虫。那还是真的吗？

Farted around with some left over vinyl plank flooring from the house remodel:

My wife and I went to a wedding in Hawaii just before the 'rona' hit. I can see why people live there. We are lucky in that a good friend of ours lives on O'ahu....NE shore....a 2 block walk to the beach. Insulation? Don't need it. Just a ceiling fan.

Termites like wood. Termites like the weather of Hawaii. I live in CA....not a whole lot different.....but if I had to choose.....Hawaii would win.

Downside.....everything has to be shipped in....except for fish....oh dear, how good the Poke is.
