|
|
Just got delivery of a very nice Racasan toilet, pretty rare, more so than the elsan type. Will be ideal for our Car Cruiser and Eccles. its built like a cannister to house atomic waste not the " other sort " LOL
Had to repair a break in the bakelite seat, which our kind postal system caused. But back as new again. Just needs a bit of tlc and it will be mint. Dont think its ever been used in anger. lol

pardon my ignorance, but was this intended to be used "as is"? personally; i'd carry a like-sized bin of sawdust to add to the "contents" until such time as they were properly dealt with, if only to lessen the noise if not the smell, even with a tight fitting closure.
BTW; it's kind of odd how the cycle of "invention" goes around... here in the US they sell a seat that is intended to fit the top of the popular 5gal plastic bucket... almost exactly as that design functions. nothing new uinder the sun! |

hi Rebel
You put some liquid chemical into the bucket to kill off the germs and smell, apart from that it was "caveat emptor"  _________________ I can resist anything except temptation ! ( Oscar Wilde)

Should that not be "caveat emptier"? |
