The Renovation Of Our Squat Part 3 , Oslo Norway - Living Free

in #freedom6 years ago (edited)




The summer has come early and its way too hot up North!

How was your day? I had a good one working with happy people in a holiday mood. Today was Norway's National day and also my christian calender birthday! I stayed well clear of the city though, its way to much for me these days, I'd rather that the general public let there hair down and go wild in smaller doses more frequently than to go mad on certain days of the year! Its like one extreme to the other, one day its quite, next its really carnival time, and then quiet again until Christmas.. Gotta get that money before its non existent and people pay with microchips in the hand, and swap it to Crypto and Metals if you want to be free and financially free in 5-10 years from now.                                                                       

Windows! Nah just kiddin'.. WALLS! Yes - Walls!

 The last 2 parts of this Renovation Project can be found at the bottom of the post, also with all the other stuff I've wrote on here, I will have my own library !! We had just repaired the kitchen in the inside and we had just one more god-dam-window to find. It would be to go in the hole where the front door used to be and we would use the old back door as our main door. Until the right one showed up, it was all ready inside to start separating the cabin into 2 bedrooms and a lounge. We had LED lights already in the ceilings and had sockets where we pleased in our rooms and in the lounge, cables run and nearly all the walls insulated with 100mm rockwool. 

This was the first wall, to seperate my room from the lounge leaving the width for a double bed and the rest would be lounge the width of a 3 seater sofa. Perfect. There was no insulation put in there so that heat would pass through the wall in winter. 

                    


Luckily the floor joists, (the beams the floor boards sit on) ran in the correct direction to build a wall on, if they ran the same direction as the wall does then I'd have been restricted to sit the new wall on a joist, or I'd have to do a lot more work to put the wall up and would have to start taking the floor boards up.  You see on the picture Left, there are pieces of wood between called "Noggins" If the joist wern't running the way they do, I would have to add the pieces with the red dots on in between the floor joists to carry a new wall (alot of work with no power tools!). You see in the photo, these are there so I can make a wall (represented by the yellow line) and now there's something to screw into. The Place has character, its "the acid house"! I don't think there is one level part of a ceiling, the red arrows show the ceiling level - and that's just the kitchen!  

                   

Don't seem to have any photos of the kitchen ceiling progress, I think it was done before I remembered to take a photo, which happens often! The lounge had taken shape, we were happy with it, we would rather have big enough bedrooms than to have a big lounge as we arn't really the loungy types. There was a sink to the left of the door but we took it out as it was old and rusty and looked wrong. We got another sink from the bikers HQ down the road where they had a renovation and I'll fit it at some point as there is already a drain pipe going down to the stream - There will be a sign saying to use Only Organic Wash-soaps! I actually wanted to do it in winter but lost it in the snow!


Next was to build the wall separating the 2 bedrooms, this wall would be insulated because Cronus is one of the heaviest snorers I've ever heard..
You see the shape of my room now *Below*
So now wall the walls where ready and mostly insulated, the sections that arn't yet were empty because the insulation wasn't a full piece and you leave them until the end and use the waste. Plasterboard! Dear Lord..

700KG of Plasterboard!!

The neighbor helped us as he had a huge trailer so we went and got it from the builders yard in two trips, and he drove it up to his house so we didn't have *Too* much of a climb up, it wasn't so bad actually as it would have been to take it all up the steps! Here's all the plasterboard for the walls.


First piece on the new wall then the progress as follows
My Room
Cronus' Room
The wall between the two bedrooms, you see if I had fitted the 2 doors side by side, my room would have been Tiny!
The Lounge- Very nearly finished - Oh we got the last window!
It said it was 11kg online, and I went with a bus then a tube then a bus again, 1hr 30 each way and this thing was around 70kg easy. The woman was shocked when I arrived on foot also with rucksack, guitar and dogs- it was a 3km walk to the bus stop.

WINDOWS!

Fitted corner lights, Poshest Squat ever!
My Room, I have an entrance!
I even "shanfered" the corners of the lounge walls, and the window "reveals" (the sides of the wall next to the windows) the corners were just an experiment to try and the window sides where to let more light in the room.
Filled the plasterboard joints and screw holes, and sanded down ready for some paint in both the bedrooms, then all left to do really was to build a bed..
Paint and Bed In My Room
Cronus' room and bed.
His bed was recycled from "Toms cabin", I will do a post on this place after I've finished these renovation ones. Oh yes that's right, Tom was here at this time but pussied out before the winter and left to head south.
My room very finished!

Yay A "finished The Inside of the Cabin Party" with the 2 dolls we got from Oslo National Theater trash!

In part 4 We go do the rest on the outside, Hope you stay tuned!!

Love your dreamy adventures. Happy to find your page. Following!

Hi Joe ! "Life is a Dream", didn't anybody say so before?! :)
Happy you also found it and, not for my sake , but for yours!

Can I ask what an intermedia artist is?is it like visual design on computers?

Hell yeah looks fun, especially the voodoo dolls ;)

Each time I see one of your posts my admiration grows. I keep saying it: you do the things I only think about... Much respect and love, brother! :-)

Thanks man! Only just finished that collection today lol. Done now though thank god! This warm weather really is "anti Steemit" weather hahahaha. I was actually concidering to stop selling mags in the mornings, and to dedicate from 6am until 9am, to posting on here! There are things I want to document and leave on blockchain :) and then I can go to work as usual for the day. Need to find a new rythum , winter and summer are two different planets over here!

Jeez you are doing a stellar job!!! It's going to look awesome!

ooh sounds like a lot of fun works!!

Yes it was! Worth it in the end :)

Love to see these renovations, It's rare that people really care to do a big thong abut a squat, since you never know if you'll get evicted, but you guys really made it your home, it's awesome!

And such is life! This place is long forgotten about, even other older freaks said that they once stayed here but nobody wanted to because it was in a bad way (it was quite bad lol) just don't have any pictures of it all!
Apparently the owners are old freaks anyway - id be happy to use it for the next 3 years and then go to sea by then :) oh my god that sounds scary to even think like that lol
