Hi everyone, it's been awhile and I was making small progress buying and cutting foam for dinette and a bed in the back. I got both foam mattresses online from walmart.
But this update is about a dry toilet build attempt. I saw this video https://youtu.be/1McHWD66h-A long time ago and "took" the idea to another level. It is basically a bucket toilet, but with a normal toilet seat. I decided to add an exhaust fan like in a composting toilet. Fumes are getting collected from under the seat via a contoured shroud. I am thinking of using compostable bags, peat moss and dry wood sawdust or pellets mix cover and dispose the contents every day of camping. I hope it will be easier and less of a chore to clean it this way comparing to a usual portable potty with liquids. Real life testing is still to come, so nothing to report yet w.r.t. smell control performance and so on. Fan is powered via a small jack on the fixture side. It will be vented out through a hole in the floor in bathroom area. Once we go camping, I'll try to remember to report on the "experience" .
Cheers,
