Lunchbox's "Lunchbox"

I think real marble is actually pretty soft. And stains. Maybe camping isn't the best place for it. Keep up the posts.

it is soft in the way hard rock maple is soft. Workable but super durable. It does stain easily if left unprotected, just like raw wood will.

got it completely wired, haven't put the top plate covers on since I need to lower the counter about a 1/4 inch.




that pigtail on the back is temporary for testing purposes, im going to have a shore power port on there.

I did a dry (wet) run on the sink, it works, but unless you have the faucet on all the way it pulsates, so I ordered an accumulator tank, as well as some right angle fittings for the pump so it will fit closer to the wall (they seem proprietary). im going to have the pump and the tank (about the same size as the pump) right below the sink in the corner next to the drain.





theres going to be a small box on the front above the tounge to hold 2 of those blue tanks, the one there is for the drain, the other will be for fresh water.

once the parts I ordered get here I can mount the pump and accumulator tank, then I need some more lumber, plywood for the front of the trailer, and some 2x2's so I can build/attach the box for the water tanks, but after spending $70 on the accumulator tank, fittings, and the shore power outlet, I gotta wait a little to buy the lumber. maybe I can save enough money, and santa can help me get the last few things I need to finish this beast. im not planning on camping anymore this year, so no rush, but I plan on having it done sometime in spring next year at the latest.

oh and yes for anyone that notices that is electrical conduit used for the plumping, I reiterate that im broke, my dad had some spare, and I googled it, and while I doubt it would pass building codes, its made of the same type of pvc with just some gray dye added. I figure since its just for drain water no biggie. I plan on painting it white.

Wow its been about 6 months. Got busy at work, trying to close on a house, stuff piled up in the garage, so I need the door open to really work on it right now, so it got pushed back til warmer weather. But I finally got out there today.


Got the 4 outer pieces cut, got the back one on and got the shore power inlet and that outlet and cover box. The yellow cord is my power in, and the black one is where I'll plug the extension cord that runs to the power strip in the tent. Figured do I get that instead of running another cord to the camp site box to put a gfci between my tent and the power. Plus the power plug at most camp grounds is on the opposite side of the driveway. So that gives me a good 15 feet or so, so I can get the tent where I want it. Sometime getting the tent within reach of the electrical box meant not being on the smoothest or most level part of the site.

Still not closing on this house for a few weeks, but hopefully I can spare some more time to work on it soon.
