Since I am in a period of semi-enforced non-camping and afternoons are quite warm outside (lower 90's F; and its not even August, yet) I have been finding myself researching (surfing for) alternative to my current alcohol heated water in a bowl on a TV tray table for my morning camping shave.
So, as usual, I am looking for ideas and examples of what has been done in the past, before settling on a design and starting construction.
...recentaly I have become enamored with the antique folding sinks used in ships, Pullman railroad cars and some trailers.
My preliminary thoughts are to use a collapsible bowl for the sink, frame it up using PVC pipe and to make it wide enough so that our Thetford porta-potty can sit between its legs (with the sink folded up) essentially doubling the use of that floor space.
Many of these cabinet type examples seem to have a (bucker filled?) water tank in the upper part to supply water. The lower part often contains a grey water tank (bucket) or a chamber pot.
Any ideas and/or examples of wash stations would be appreciated...
Enjoy!
