Here’s the sixth installment of the funny “Home Inspection Nightmares” gallery from This Old House. I especially like this retrofitted balcony staircase placed in front of a door.
They should compile these into a book. I’d buy it.
Previously on Boing Boing:
• Photos of bad and dangerous home improvement hacks
• Home Inspection Nightmares photo gallery, Vol. 5

The Washington Post reports that “A foul-smelling package that led to the evacuation of a post office next to the Smithsonian’s National Postal Museum contained two cans of spinach and a dirty diaper.” Link (Thanks, mapmaker!)

Tim Knowles put a digital camera inside a cardboard box and rigged it so that it would snap a photo every ten seconds through a small hole in the box. Then he sent the box through the mail. It recorded a total of 6994 images and he made a movie with them. It’s really cool! Link (Thanks,
Kevin!)
