Palibe njira zambiri zosungira ndalama ku Lowe's. Zogulitsa za tsiku ndi tsiku, zogulitsa za zida zamagetsi, kugulitsa zinthu zokanda, kuchotsera utoto wa atomized, kugulitsa zinthu zochotsera, Black Friday ndi zina zambiri pachaka, kuchotsera kwa asilikali, ntchito zoyika zinthu zotsika mtengo kwambiri...ngakhale kuchotsera komwe mumapeza pogula zinthu zobwerezabwereza — — mndandandawu ukupitirirabe.
Zonsezi ndi zabwino, koma palibe chodzitamandira nacho pa phwando. Ayi, kuti musangalatse anthu omwe amabwera ku phwando la block pa makina awo odulira udzu, muyenera kuthyola dongosolo mwanjira ina. Ayi, musathyole ngati Crash Override ndi Acid Burn adanyoza Secret Service mu Hackers. Zambiri pa ma hacks a moyo. Malangizo athu ena ndi osavomerezeka, njira zosavomerezeka; ena amavomerezedwa mwalamulo ndi Lowe's koma amadedwa ndi antchito a Lowe's; ndipo ena ndi malingaliro atsopano pa malangizo ndi njira zogulira zodziwika bwino.
Mwina mwakumanapo ndi zipangizo zokanda ku Lowe's; zambiri zimasochera m'mabokosi otseguka a firiji, zotenthetsera madzi zotuluka m'mabokosi, ndi makina otsukira mbale okhala ndi fungo lokayikitsa la casserole. Kuchepetsa zinthu zomwe zawonongeka si zachilendo, koma zikuyamba kuchepa pamene masitolo akubweza kapena kuchotsa zinthu zomwe zawonongeka. Koma mutha kugulabe zolakwika zina ku Lowe's pofunafuna matumba obwezeretsanso. Malinga ndi Collin wa blog yogula zinthu ku Hip2Save, matumba nthawi zambiri amakhala matumba apulasitiki oyera omwe makampani amaikamo thumba loyambirira likasweka, ndipo matope, mulch kapena dothi lapamwamba likatayikira pansi.
Mukhoza kusunga 10% pa zinthu zomwe zili mu thumba lobwezeretsanso, ngakhale zitatayikira bwanji, koma mutha kusunganso mpaka 50%. Masitolo ena amapita patsogolo, kugulitsa zinthu zomwe zatayikiranso pa dola imodzi, kapena kuziphatikiza mu mapaleti ndikuzigulitsa pamtengo wotsika kwambiri. Lowe's salengeza mfundo yokhudza kuchotsera zinthu zomwe zili mu matumba obwezeretsanso, koma mutha kupeza zambiri kuchokera ku zolemba ndi ndemanga patsamba ngati Tomtoville. Koma pamapeto pake njira izi zimawoneka kuti zikugwirizana ndi sitolo, kotero mtunda womwe mungatenge ungasiyane.
Ngati mukufuna ma joist hangers 700 kapena mapaundi 1200 a mchenga, nthawi zonse ndi bwino kugula zinthu zambiri, monga momwe zilili mu pulogalamu ya Lowe yotchedwa Lowe's Buy In Bulk. Koma si zomwe tikunena pano. Ayi, tikulankhula za chisangalalo komanso ndalama zogulira zinthu zazikulu ndikuzisiya padera m'malo mogula zinthu zazing'ono zambiri. Chitsanzo chabwino: Ngati mukufuna ndodo ya ulusi wa theka la inchi (sichoncho tonse?), mutha kulipira mpaka $2.68 pa phazi lililonse pa utali wa mapazi 1, 2, ndi 3. Koma dipatimenti yamagetsi ili ndi gawo la strut komwe mungapeze ndodo za mapazi 10 pa $16.98, kapena $1.70 pa phazi lililonse. Chenjerani: izi sizigwira ntchito nthawi zonse. Ndodo ya 10′⅜” imakhala yokwera mtengo kwambiri pa phazi lililonse kuposa kutalika kwa 2′ ndi 6′.
Ndalama zosungidwa za kukula koterezi zimapezeka kulikonse ku Lowe's: Mutha kupeza chitoliro cha PVC cha mapazi awiri pa $13.15, kapena chitoliro cha mapazi 10 pa $21.91. Izi zikugwiranso ntchito pa matabwa afupiafupi, plywood ya kotala. Zachidziwikire, ngati chomwe mukufunikira ndi chidutswa cha PVC cha mapazi awiri cha mainchesi 2 ndi 40, mutha kusunga $9 potenga chitoliro chachifupi. Njira iyi imadalira nthawi yomwe mumayamba kufunikira manambala akuluakulu.
Mwina mukudziwa matabwa otsika mtengo kwambiri ku Lowe mu dipatimenti yodula mitengo, ndipo mwina mukudziwa kuti adzakudulirani matabwa okwera mtengo. Koma kodi mumadziwa kuti mutha kugula matabwa okwera mtengo a wina pamtengo wotsika kwambiri kapena osagula kalikonse munthu akasiya zidutswa? Monga momwe zilili ndi Home Depot, izi ndi zomwe zimachitika kasitomala wa Lowe akagula matabwa koyamba komanso komaliza, kapena munthu akakhala ndi ndalama zambiri moti sangavutike kusunga theka la pepala la matabwa. Monga momwe Aisle of Shame ikunenera, plywood ndi pafupifupi $60. Kutengera ndi amene mumamufunsa, zinyalala za wina zimatha kusanduka zanu ... makamaka pamene matabwa ndi okwera mtengo kwambiri.
Komabe, iyi si njira yabwino kwambiri pankhani ya magwiridwe antchito. Mukangopanga ubwenzi ndi woyang'anira pamalopo (kudzera mu ntchito yopangidwa ndi Hunts), nthawi zambiri mutha kuipeza kuchokera ku matabwa osiyanasiyana aulere omwe amachotsedwa pamalo omanga. Izi zikuphatikizapo kudula, komanso matabwa omwe sangagwiritsidwe ntchito konse (pazifukwa zawo), ndipo nthawi zina amangogula matabwa ambiri.
Nthawi zina mudzawona malipoti akuti mutha kupeza zomera zaulere kuchokera ku Lowe's chifukwa masitolo ena amaika zomera zawo zochotsedwa (mwina zomwe sizinagulitsidwe ndi chaka chilichonse) m'chidebe kuti anthu azinyamula. Izi zikuwoneka kuti zikutsutsana ndi mfundo za kampani ya Lowe, ngakhale mutalandira chilolezo, ndipo zili pafupi kwambiri ndi chizolowezi chosaloledwa cha "propllifting," momwe anthu amachulukitsa zomera zina zomwe zatayidwa kukhala zomera zatsopano.
Zomwe nthawi zambiri mumatha kupeza ndi zomera zapulasitiki zoyikidwa m'miphika, ndi ma pallet omwe amatumizidwa. Izi ndi zabwino kwambiri pakubereketsa, ndipo Lowe's ili ndi pulogalamu yobwezeretsanso yomwe imateteza kuti zisatayike m'malo otayira zinyalala. Ndipotu, amatenga miphika kuchokera ku zomera zomwe zagulidwa kwina. Miphika ndi mathireyi amenewa nthawi zambiri amapezeka kwaulere ku Lowe's ndi Home Depot (kudzera mwa Mavis Butterfield ndi Brie ku TerraForums). M'masitolo ena, zinthuzi zimakhala zopikisana kwambiri, choncho onani msanga komanso nthawi zambiri.
Malinga ndi LBM Journal, ngakhale mliri usanayambe kusowa kwa matabwa, ubwino wa matabwa unali utachepa, kotero kumvetsetsa momwe mungasankhire matabwa abwino kuchokera mu mulu wa matabwa wa Lowe n'kofunika kwambiri kuposa kale lonse. Kugula matabwa opindika, opindika, opindika, opindika, opindika, kapena osweka kumapanga zinyalala zambiri zomwe zimawonjezera ndalama zanu. Mukamvetsetsa momwe mungasankhire matabwa m'sitolo, mutha kuchotsa zoopsa zambiri zopotoka.
Inde, mutha kufufuza za matabwa pogwiritsa ntchito zinthu monga buku labwino kwambiri la Thomas Publishing, koma ma grade sangakuuzeni kuti mukupotoka, chomwe muyenera kuchita ndikuyang'ana ma board, akutero Brett McKay wa The Arts ku Manly. Choyamba, yang'anani matabwawo kuti muwone ming'alu (ming'alu imangowonekera pakati pa matabwawo), kugawanika (ming'alu yonse kudutsa matabwawo), kugwedezeka (kulekana m'mphepete mwa mphete zokulira), ndi mfundo zosakhazikika zomwe zingagwe. Onani chithunzi pamwambapa ndikuyang'ana pansi (kapena "mzere wowonekera") kutalika kwa bolodi kuti muwone ngati pali vuto lililonse mwa izi. Pomaliza, yang'anani ma telomere ndikutaya matabwa aliwonse komwe mungawone mphete zokulira zozungulira, chifukwa kupewa pith/heartwood ndi njira yabwino yopewera kupindika mtsogolo (kudzera pa blog ya Growit BuildIt).
Njira yotsimikizika yosungira ndalama ndi njira yakale yosinthira zinthu zomwe "mukufuna" ndi chinthu chotsika mtengo kapena chomwe chilipo mosavuta. Ponena za zida, mutha kusunga ndalama mwachangu komanso mokulirapo pogwiritsa ntchito njira zina zotsika mtengo koma zamphamvu, m'malo mogula zida zapadera zodula kuti mugwiritse ntchito kamodzi ndikusunga kosatha. Mutha kusintha zinthu kunyumba kapena m'malo ogwirira ntchito nthawi iliyonse, monga kusintha zida (nthawi zina zopusa) zomwe Sparetoolz yapereka, koma yang'anani zina m'mapangano a Lowe ndikusintha njira zomwe zilipo kwa inu.
Ganizirani kufunika kwadzidzidzi komanso kosapeweka kopanga dzenje lozungulira pamtengo. Lowe's imapereka njira zambiri zabwino zochitira izi (zobowola zophimba, zidutswa za forstner, ndi macheka a mabowo), ndipo mwina zina zoyipa (monga ma carbide burrs). Izi zili ndi ntchito zake: mafosholo ndi ma auger (zidutswa zozungulira kapena zozungulira za mabowo akuluakulu, osokonezeka omwe amatha kudutsa kapena kudutsa pang'ono pa bolodi); Zidutswa zolimbitsa mabowo abwino okhala pansi; ndi macheka a mabowo, omwe amatha kudula pa bolodi limodzi lokha (kudzera mu Empire Abrasives). Tiyerekeze kuti mukufuna dzenje la 1″ kudzera pa bolodi la 2×4. Yang'anani njira zitatu izi zobowola kuchokera ku Lowe, ndipo zidutswa za macheka ndi pafupifupi theka la mtengo wa njira zodula kwambiri - zabwino kudziwa ngati mukufuna kusunga ndalama.
Kunena zoona, pali mitundu yambiri ya matepi ndi zomangira m'sitolo ya zida kuposa nyenyezi zomwe zili mu Milky Way, zomwe sizingakhale zoona kwenikweni, koma popeza ubongo wathu sungamvetse bwino, kungakhale koyenera kunena. Nthawi zina mumakhala mukukakamira kufunafuna chinthu china chake, monga bolt yachitsulo chosapanga dzimbiri ¾” yozungulira ¼-28 socket head cap bolt. (Zabwino zonse!) Koma nthawi zambiri, njira zina zingagwire ntchito bwino, ndipo nthawi zambiri zimakupulumutsirani ndalama. (Kumbukirani, mukafuna zosinthira, mtedza, mabolt, ndi zitsulo zina zilizonse zomwe zimakumana nazo ziyenera kufananizidwa kuti zipewe dzimbiri la galvanic, APP Manufacturing ikulangiza.
Chinthu chimodzi chomwe mumadzipeza mukuchita mobwerezabwereza m'dziko la DIY ndikutsegula, kukulunga, ndi kusunga zingwe zowonjezera. Pokhapokha ngati mukufuna ndikugwiritsa ntchito njira yolumikizira chingwe posungira chingwe chanu (kudzera pa Wirecutter), mutha kukhala ndi coil ndipo mukufuna kwambiri lamba wozungulira. Velcro ingagwiritsidwe ntchito pa ntchitoyi; Lowe's imagulitsa mapaketi atatu a 12″ pa $3.98. Koma yesani matepi ena a utoto wabuluu omwe mwina muli nawo kale. Ndi olimba kwambiri, sasiya zotsalira zomatira, ndipo mumapeza kutalika kwa (60″) kowirikiza nthawi 720 kuti mukulunga zingwe zoposa zitatu nthawi imodzi. Zosintha sizitha; onani kanema uliwonse wa Malangizo ndi Malangizo a Youtube kuti mupeze malangizo ambiri.
Tikamaganizira za zipangizo zina, nthawi zambiri timaganiza za kuphika. Zinthu zokonzera nyumba sizimasinthidwa nthawi zonse. Izi nthawi zambiri zimakhala vuto la chitetezo ndipo nthawi zambiri zimakhala vuto la malamulo omanga. Zosankha monga "mzere woonda" kapena "chitoliro cha DWV m'malo mwa 40" si zosankha, zimabweretsa tsoka. Koma njira zina (kuchuluka ndi khalidwe) ndizovomerezeka. M'zaka za m'ma 1970, njira yopangira mafelemu pogwiritsa ntchito matabwa ochepa idapangidwa (poyamba inkatchedwa "uinjiniya wabwino kwambiri", kenako inasinthidwa kukhala "mafelemu apamwamba" ndi amalonda ena anzeru), kulola chimango chapakati cha 24″ cha katundu - Makoma okhala ndi katundu ndi makoma ena amagwiritsa ntchito matabwa ang'onoang'ono, malinga ndi USDA Forest Products Laboratory. Mutha kugwiritsa ntchito njira yofanana (mwachitsanzo, pogwiritsa ntchito 2×3 m'malo mwa 2×4) kuti muchepetse mtengo wa mapulojekiti ambiri.
Sikuti ndi za matabwa okha. Mwachitsanzo, Lowe's amagulitsa chitoliro chachitsulo ngati chokongoletsera (kwenikweni ndi cholowa m'malo mwa mipando), koma chitoliro cha mamita 10 chimadula $45.92, ndipo pamapulojekiti omwe sadalira kwambiri, mungaganizire za mphamvu ya PVC yopaka utoto kapena chitoliro cha waya.
Ngati wina akudziwa mphamvu ya kusintha, ndi gulu la DIY. Nayi chitsanzo. Kubwerera mu .com boom yoyambirira, ma whiteboard anali ofunikira kuphimba makoma a kampani. Simudziwa nthawi yomwe dongosolo lalikulu lomwe limafuna chithunzi cha 200-square-foot lidzabwera. Mabizinesi ang'onoang'ono adapeza mwachangu kuti ndalamazo sizinali zokwanira pamsika wawo wochepa wa $200 miliyoni, kotero akatswiri ena adapeza kuti ma shawa panels amatha kupanga ma whiteboard ofanana komanso otsika mtengo, bola ngati simukuda nkhawa ndi zinthu monga "kulimba." " ndi "Kuchotsa". Zachidziwikire, izi zikugwirabe ntchito masiku ano, ngakhale simupaka utoto uliwonse wa inchi imodzi ndi iwo, monga momwe Fairy Dust Teaching ikusonyezera.
Malingaliro ena ndi monga kujambula khoma m'malo mogwiritsa ntchito chophimba cha pulojekiti (kudzera mu Projector Central), kapena kupanga chophimba chobiriwira cha DIY kuti muwonetse banja lanu tchuthi pamwezi. Nthawi zina cholowa m'malo mwake chimakhala changwiro, monga kugwiritsa ntchito 100% silicone caulk m'malo mwa njira yophikira makamaka yopangira nkhungu (kudzera mu Instructables).
Kutengera ndi malo enaake a Pinterest omwe mwangozi mumachita, mutha kupeza mosavuta makampani onse omwe amakonda kusunga ndalama popanga zinthu nokha, zomwe nthawi zambiri zimagulidwa m'masitolo akuluakulu okonza nyumba. Malinga ndi Chalk & Apples ndi Fstoppers, ojambula zithunzi, ojambula makanema ndi aphunzitsi amadziwika kuti amasunga ndalama m'zikhalidwe zomwe sizimayamikira maphunziro kapena kupanga makanema a Minecraft a YouTube, kotero pali mwayi wambiri. Mwachitsanzo, onani zokambiranazi zomwe zimatsimikiza kuti tepi yotsekera ulusi wa PTFE ndi njira yabwino kwambiri (ndi yotsika mtengo!) yoyezera ojambula zithunzi (kudzera pa FastRawViewer). Kapena yesani izi, zomwe zimagwiritsa ntchito njira yochepetsera chimbudzi (kudzera pa kujambula zithunzi za DIY).
Ponena za akatswiri oimba nyimbo, nthawi zambiri amakhala opanda ndalama, nthawi zina amakhala "akatswiri" chifukwa amawononga ndalama pa chilichonse, komanso ali ndi chikhalidwe chabwino komanso chodzipangira zinthu zina, monga cha a Lowe ena. Ngati luso lanu loimba latopa kukokedwa m'chipinda chosungiramo zinthu ngati chibwenzi chanu cha giredi 10 amayi akafika kunyumba molawirira, macProVideo ikupereka njira zina zosinthira zipinda zodula zodzipatula, monga kuzikulunga m'mabulangeti olongedza. Mutha kuletsa phokoso mchipinda chonse chokhala ndi insulation ya ubweya wa miyala.
Pakadali pano, ojambula amatha kupeza zinthu zomwe akufunikira popanda kugwiritsa ntchito bokosi la zinyalala pogwiritsa ntchito malangizo ochokera m'magazini monga Artspace Magazine, monga momwe angapangire nsalu yotchipa ya wojambula pogwiritsa ntchito nsalu.
Njira zina zopangira zinthu zanu zokha zafika pachimake pa ntchito yobwereka zida ndipo tsopano zikupezeka m'malo ambiri a Lowe. Kubwereka zida ndi njira yomwe mumayambira ntchito yosazolowereka ndikubwereka m'malo mogula zida zina zodula zomwe zimafunikira. Konzani mosamala.
