Hello All!
We have the temporary house up, the "wall tent". We have a nice little "privy" constructed and installed out under some trees and all is well until it rains, snows, sleets or blows too hard to sit. We have no roof on it. The privy we have to date is a small little twenty four inch square box that sits atop a three foot deep hole. It's a nice box, complete with seat, magazine rack and TP holder. But it's not for any harsh seasons!
Anyone have a design for the construction of a "nice" outhouse? We could figure it out, but I thought I'd ask you all so that I would get all the lesssons's learned out ahead of time. I've seen pictures on websites, but no dimensions.
Thanks in advance for good information!
Doug
