Plumbing

 It's another job that's not photogenic, but it is an important step ahead. l got the plumbing done, all except mounting the drain spigot for the gray water, and making a connection to the water heater.

I decided a while back that the best thing for me to do was to take out the old black tank. My guess is, it was less than 10 gallons. I really had no choice, the old plastic had turned brittle. The top part shattered like glass. I couldn't figure a way to put in a black and a gray tank, so I decided to go with a small, 10-gallon, gray tank and use a porta-potty type toilet. It'll be set up as a wet-bath. 

• Tank's in. 
• Shower pan is in place.
• Drain from kitchen sink & shower pan installed.
• I had already installed a new fresh-water tank, gravity inlet for the tank, and inlet for city water, 12v. pump.
• The old, original faucet shined up pretty well. The old sink was in good shape. Used them both. 
• Except for the lines connected to the pump, all the freshwater lines are new pex. The connections to the pump are reinforced flexible tubing--per the manufacturer's instructions.
• It took a lot of figuring and measuring to get the gray tank in, and route the line to it. I think I have it so it will work fine. I have an air-vent, as well as the obvious in and out. Since it is gray water. It'll drain through a hose bib.
• I salvaged an old aluminum signboard, that I used to make patches for the belly where I had to open up the black board stuff to gain access. Frolic has a 1.5 inch space between the plywood floor and the black homasote--or whatever it is. (whatever it is, it has held up well for 52-years0
• I'll mount a small propane demand water heater on the wall in the wet-bath. At least for the present, the shower wand will feed straight out of the heater. I'll mount a cutoff somewhere.

Now, I'll move on to installing the acrylic panels for the wet-bath.

Then I basically have a "punch list" of odds and ends. (Have you ever wondered why there aren't "evens" and ends?)
Pictures will come.

Everyone asks, "How is Frolic coming along?" It's coming along.
