I finally went to the garage after what seems like a long time, turned the lights on, got the furnace turned up, put the Nova on the lift. I had to pee made the mistake of coming in the house. The Deer pee in the woods so I should be able too also since I pay for the place. With DSL the computer is always on so I just have to check it out, now it will be hard to get back to the garage. Bathroom, or high speed Internet in the garage, I think the high speed would be cheaper.

Just drill a hole in a bucket and put a hose through it then drilla hole in the wall leading outside, then make a braket on the wall for the bucket to sit on. Now you have a bathroom in the garage cheaper than the internet.
I live in a university town where the local builidng department won't let you have a bathroom in the garage for fear that it will get rented to students.
I tired to sneak the plumbing in the floor when I put on the addition but the inspector caught it and made me remove the piping. He wasn't very happy with me.

Good idea with the bucket.

If I had it to do all over again I would make sure I had a bathroom, living in the country I can get by with more then people in town. When I had my garage built I had two 4’’ pipes set in the floor, one for incoming water and one for the septic system I had planed on a shower but that didn’t happen. Now 13 years have gone by, time goes by fast. It's hell to get old 61 I got pee again! Then I'm going back to the garage.

Our shop has a bathroom, but it isn't kept up real well. We wash our hands in the sink with Go jo and it splatters all over the place, along with grease. Every once in a while a friend of Don's comes over and brings his wife, and of course, she has to use the bathroom. :eek: We warn her, but when you gotta go you gotta go. It was pretty embarassing to say the least.
So last week while Dan was working on his car I made it my goal to scrub the whole place down, walls, floor, sink, etc. Even organized the magazine rack full of hot rod magazines. Now we are ready for company. :D

looks like there my be a potencial man-card violation in the making:D
I really wish I had a bathroom in my detached garage as well. It seems like everytime I finally break free from all of the other stuff I have going on and actually make it out there to do something.....just as I get started....I suddenly have to go to the bathroom...:mad: I'm not talking about taking a leak here...:o ....so, while I truly appreciate the ingenuity of the idea and agree with it in concept, unfortunately, a Folgers can just really doesn't seem like an option....:LOL:
Yep, I even put out some of those little smelly soaps and fresh flowers. ;) Am I a sensitive man, or what??????????? :LOL: :LOL:Quote:

I hope Ed won't be upset with me when I say that it ain't exactly spotlessly clean.
There is a towel rack beside the basin with an old terry-cloth towel that probably won't pass much of a cleanliness inspection. There is a sign over the basin reading:
NOTICE - DO NOT DRY FACE WITH THE END OF THE TOWEL MARKED "A"
No problem here!

Folger can ? I thought the drain in the middle of the floor was good enough, just got to run water to clean the drain.

5 gallon bucket does the number one job! Need to get a citrus tree to dump it on. They really do like to be peed on according to my New Zealand Kiwi friends. Watch "Worlds Fastest Indian"! He does it as well. I know, TMI, its time for an Uncle Bob old woman photo! Just kidding Bob!:LOL:

When I built,had sense enough to put in a bathroom with toilet and a good sized "utilitub" fiberglass sink. (It's big enough to wash parts in). Also set it up so I have hot water for the pressure washer or just washing a car in the winter. Keeps peace in the family, 'cause I'm not trackin' up the house.
That's why I have a rear door to my garage & a fenced in area, only those in planes might see what I'm up too....joe

I pick up spyware on every forum I visit during the day, so I sweep my computer 2-3 times a day and find 10-30 of these little buggers in there. It is just a fact of life with the internet.

GOD Denny guit, your giving me bad flashbacks from Nam!!!:whacked:

Seriously though the other guys are right. The bots run searches and "mine" the data from the servers and that "mined" data is what is used to create spam. You don't realize it; but, a lot of times your email address will be used by others as well to send stuff. I have seen anonymous email programs that you can plug any legit email address in the world into and send an email "from them" to someone else. It sucks; but, it really isn't CHR's fault.

i live a quater mile from any neighbor so when i need to go i let it hang out in any direction i`m facing .. they`d need barknocuklers to see anything if they wish to anyway..:eek:
I kinda lucked out with the place I live in. I have a 2 car garage---with a connecting door to my engineering office--with a connecting door to a 3 peice bathroom. It works out well because many times people bring me prototype machinery they have built, and want engineering drawings made of it. Then I can use all my hotrod related tools, cherry picker hoist, etcetera to dismantle their machinery in the garage, then slip into my office and make engineering drawings. Big advantage here is that I get to write off my garage area and hotrod tool purchases as belonging to my business at tax time!!!--The huge disadvantage is that this garage is under the front bedrooms, so painting and other stinky jobs, and welding, have to be done in the driveway.
Heck, a tranny funnel stuck thru a hole in the garage wall has served me very well for years........:LOL:
every garage should have a bathroom....and every bathroom should have a computer! the bathroom seems to be the only place I get any peace any more, so I sometimes finish up and stay in there, magazines and books litter the floor in both bathrooms (I do sometimes stack them and switch which one is on top, make it look good). My wife tolerates it, but when I suggested installing a tv in the master bathroom toilet closet thingy she said NO.
when I am in the garage and have to go badly I just step into the side yard and aim for the gutter between sidewalk and fence. more than the cleanup involved in going inside it saves me getting my little girl all excited at seeing me and then trying to duck back outside without her getting upset she isn't coming.

Love this site, great sense of humor; to me this site is all about hot rods, sharing information, knowledge, and having fun. I don’t think the power parkers would get it. You guys have made me laugh too much. Thanks.
If you guys didn’t see this site yet it really ties in with what we love about the 50’s.

That was quite the tribute to the fifties. As I was a sixties child, I grew up on the tail end of this. I loved the old tv shows and songs and hot rods. Thanks, Steve

my lavatory is were a 4 foot snow bank is now:( so now it the folger can:D
Wow, a resurrected thread on bathrooms! Some of you guys have been posting funny stuff for years!! For me one of the best things I did was have the plumber run a waste line down the ditch from the area where the barn would be when he was putting in the pumped line to the lateral field up the hill (another story). Built the barn, put in a stool&sink, and now take a leak, it flows 200' down to the septic, and eventually gets pumped back past the barn to soak into the ground. Seems a bit strange, but it's legal!!
it must just be us country boys HOSS:DQuote:
