DIY Sewer Hose Storage Install - Event Date: 06 Sep 2015

Work today, camping Monday to Friday next week. After we get back, I'll take some pic and try to post them here and on rpod facebook page. Not sure if you can do this (cause the pod is outside now and its cold...) but if you want you can buy a sewer hose and take the end piece off your factory supplied hose and attach it to the new longer hose, so you know it fits onto the black/grey dump pipes.   I didn't do this as I wanted to keep my shorter hose as a spare, wrapped up in a plastic bag.

Ron, 

Sorry, but I'm not visualizing your set up by reading your explanation. Can you expand or provide some pics?
Thanks,

One last note:  I bought an 8 foot fence post cover, but the sewer pipe only needs 6.5 ft or so.  As you can see form the photos above, I used the other 1.5 feet for a fittings storage area.  Lock nuts and plastic spacers were found at the local handyman big box store.  Four fence post caps provide the closure at each end of the tubes.

Originally posted by mcclurey This is great information as this is what I had in mind. I think... If I interpret correctly you drilled a larger hole in bottom of fence post so you could then reach through and drill a small tap hole into beam and place a stainless steel screw with washer. One on each end or two screws on each end?

Sorry for the delay in replying.  Yes, you have that right, but my sequence needs a little explaining.  I knew I couldn't lie under Our-Pod and blindly drill and screw upwards.  So, I first measured the side-to-side dimension of the beam centerlines, marked it on the plastic tube, drilled the larger holes, then use that as the template to drill the smaller holes.  THEN, I laid in the mud and drilled/ screwed!  When I get a moment, I'll take a picture of the holes.

I like the "Happy Tripping" process of marking, punching, pre-drilling and final drilling.

For "Happy Tripping," the size of the square tube fits the sewer piping rather nicely.  Also, a square tube is easier to work with in this process than a round, constantly moving tube.  And sincerely, the square tubes appeal to my aesthetic sense, i.e., I like them!

Having used this now on three camping trips, I am very pleased with it.
