Well, I would say if a guest went to use your bathroom they would be taken aback.

I also have a vessel sink. It is thick glass.

The only way I could arrange my bathroom to comply with the criteria for wheelchair accessibility was to use one of them. It works great, and it does complement the room.

Mike -Its a bamboo bowl we got at Target.  Cut a hole in it and now its a sink.

Ed - We could be on to something big here...the newest European styled couch.  Combined with a urinal, you'd never have to get up from the football game.

I consider it a luxury just to have a sink in the bathroom.  Quite tight in there with a full size shower and toilet.
So the wife is looking for something like this.  Kind of weird but its a 1/2 gallon (or more) you save per use - flush with the waste wash water.

Were dry camping so for us it makes a small difference.
Certainly not as cool as your setup...or as crafty.

Looks good.   You could cut one of those bowls in half and make a urinal. No fancy plumbing needed just let it run outside.  Got that idea in a bar in Mexico.   JIm
