I see your point though, they shouldn't have done it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SchmidtGenetics@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* I live where there is frost, it’s shifting no matter how well you did the base. It’s unlikely to be a problem, especially with how small it is. But it’s also fixable with screwing a board on the inside like a double stinger. Even melting snow can refreeze and put pressure on the front, since that could be the only place melting. permalink fedilink source parent
