An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I’m in the alpha stages of workshop organization and would love to see your entire wall as inspiration.
It's a work in progress. I'm just trying stuff to see what works. I've only been in this space for little over a year. I'll probably do a dedicated post about it when ever I get it presentable but here's the current situation.
Looks great, I feel like it doesn't belong in this community haha. Not dull at all
Depends who you ask, I guess. My girlfriend doesn't seem too inspired by it where as a box of loose fasteners keeps me busy for few hours.
I fucking love the tape rack/shelf
Thanks. It's a working concept but the execution needs a bit polishing. Tape rolls are really difficult to store while still maintaining first order retrievability.
I love the ones for your drills and airosols. I'm definitely stealing some of these. Thnx!
OP what do you do for a living? Love your posts, please do more :)
Thanks! Glad you find it interesting.
I’m a plumber by training, but these days I work as a self-employed home improvement contractor and handyman. My services cover just about every imaginable job related to maintaining a house, both indoors and outdoors - including yard work. The only thing I don’t do is electrical, but I’ve got a guy for that too. My goal is to be the person my customers can call for almost whatever they need help with, rather than having to find someone new each time just because the last contractor only handled a specific type of work.
OP delivers! Thank you! It looks fantastic.
I really like some of the uses of PVC you've got going, especially the drill holders and the slanted ones under the window.
Thanks. I've even made gutters from it.
I do plumbing for a living, so it's a familiar and readily available material for me. Those are 110, 75, 50 and 32mm drain pipes.
How do you attach the pipe to the wall for something like the drill holders? I can picture something strong enough to hold up to the weight of a drill
The pipes are screwed onto the wooden block above them which is attached to the wall with pocket holes.
You could put this in a magazine
