The rotating part only has like two holes so the water really comes out at a very high pressure. Instead of trying to reinvent the wheel this is something I would just buy that has been tested and proven to work. Larry Don't be too quick to desparange inginuity... I bought one of those unit you showed... 1. The end of it was too big to fit past the ball valve in the toilet 2. The shut off valve in the wand broke w/in 3 minutes of trying to use it I tried to go the cheap route... cost me in the end.307Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012
Our son Cameron finally outgrew the small Pack-n-Play we used for his crib in the TT. I wanted something a tad nicer... and something that we could convert to a toddler bed as he got older. PROBLEM SOLVED!!! Here is our floorplan: I removed the jack-knife couch from the bunkhouse: And installed a convertible crib: This crib will convert to a partial gate toddler bed, and a full open toddler bed as Cameron gets older. A couple L brackets hold it secure to the floor. The open spaces next to the crib have become the perfect places to store our bag chairs, thule shelf, and patio mat. Enjoy!!

travlcampnfuls wrote: busch2fan, that is a nice mod. what length and what type paint did you use? estimated cost? It's an 8' section of pipe that I got out of the salvage pile at the contractor supply yard. The only thing I had to buy was the 23 degree elbow, and end fittings. Those cost me about $30. If you had to buy the main pipe... you're probably looking at around $50/$60 total. I used Rustoleum gloss back for the paint. Not for any particular reason other than that's what I had in the paint cabinet. LOL!!! Hope this helps! Jeff404Views0likes0CommentsRe: Cool Mods - Thread restored 10/18/2012

I can't speak for the OP, but I would think that side to side scissor jacks are faily stable in their standalone design. It is front to back where there is the majority of the movement, thus the design of the BAL Stabilizer Bars. Regardless, it is an ingenious design mod.479Views0likes0Comments
