catalogs.  I imagine it would not be very hard to tie into the hot and cold sides
of the 'Pod plumbing.

(Something like this?)






Yes it's been done. I am thinking of doing mine AT the FROG rally next week.. as a show and tell sort of thing. Maybe if other people see someone cut a hole in the wall without panicking, they will be more inclined to try some stuff themselves. Figure I need to take a cordless drill, bit set, jig saw, caulk. Shower and T's.

EDIT.. didn't turn the page.. see Tech has posted a link..

We took the sink out of our 172 bathroom...makes lots more space for showering.  The kitchen sink is so close it seemed redundant to have on in the bath, too.

Cool!  Any chance you have a photo of how it turned out?  Would love to see it.  I think the older Rpod wetbaths look much roomier.

Hmm, show and tell modding.  I like it.  Might think about adding a hot water switch inside then.

I never understood why they thought a mini-sink in the bathroom was a good idea, with a big sink 2 steps away and no room to spare inside the bathroom.
