Our Scamp, as delivered, has a little, shallow, white plastic sink. Although it has never happened to us, we've often talked about the result of a hot pan in the sink.
A couple weeks ago we were wandering through the local Ikea store when their sink selection caught our eye. Seemed like a simple idea to get rid of the plastic sink,
and replace it with something larger.
Turns out, it was very nearly too large, with the cutout spanning from the front faceframe attach point to the inside of the belly band. An inch smaller would have been easier.
I had to create some mortises for the sink holddown hardware on two sides, and then coated the edge of the counter top and the mortises with epoxy so that any water couldn't seep into the wood.
To be continued ...
Looks like you are having fun!
ReplyDeleteThe schedule isn't allowing much travel so projects is the next best thing. :-)
DeleteI wish we could get a bigger sink in the Casita! Can't wait to see your finished project.
ReplyDeleteWe're very fortunate to have the counter top real estate to work with that doesn't seem to be available in most eggs.
DeleteNice looking project you've got going there. Bet you'll love the final results.
ReplyDeleteIt's getting close. Pressure tested the plumbing today but still waiting for a Hepvo valve to show up so I can finish the drain connection. It's going to be nice to have a full size drain basket.
