To render fm Miriam Webster

transitive verb

1 a: to melt down

b: to treat so as to convert into industrial fats and oils or fertilizer

4 a (1): to cause to be or become

5: to direct the execution of

6: to apply a coat of plaster or cement directly to

Many of these can be done directly over a house, could you be more specific?

I believe he is talking about rendering an image in a 3D modeling or animation program after specifying materials, textures, camera angles, light angles, etc. Sometimes this process can take hours. I've seen computers left running unattended, but with signs on them that said "RENDERING!!! Do not turn off computer!"

I smell someone who has an assingment due, he didn't pay attention in class, and is too embarassed to ask his instructor how to do it.

And apparently too frantic to come back with a response

Pity, I wanted to talk about rendering over his house

I wonder if hot fat is a preservative or a fire hazard?

Hot fat (in the form of brain matter, which burns) and urine (a fire suppressor) can be combined to form an excellent preservative for finishing tanned hides.

I've already burnt up enough brain cells, (finish this scentence).

Another definition of render, as defined by the Department of Homeland Security: to deport a suspect to a foreign country with less stringent human rights rules for questioning .

OP, yes, you can do over a wooden house if you have space for the helicopter to pick your suspect up .

Ah, very good

Which then leads to the other definitions for render.

Exactly . Which is why the OPs should always be very specific about what they really want to know about before posting .

Do it in accordance with the Building Regulations.

In the UK, a significant change in the outside appearance of the building would need to go through the local authority's planning process. Once approved, a qualified local builder or rendering specialist should be contracted to carry out the work. With the contract comes a long-term warranty that can be attached to the rest of the documentation for the building, which in aggregate will form a robust defence to any temptation for potential buyers to carry out "gazundering" prior to any sale taking place in the future.

Rendering an entire building is not the province of the inexperienced amateur, however well the intention.
