would you build a station where the sink would be hooked up
to your main water line?

Yes! We have just such a sink (although a single-drain-board type) on the back of our garage to serve as a potting sink/plant hardening off area. It used to have water available from the nearby creek(which has quit running) but now I just use the water hose only eight feet away. It's wonderful! Several friends who saw our setup have duplicated it.

Now if I could only keep DH from parking power tools, gas cans, excess parts, etc., there, it could be truly enjoyed. How is it that most spaces I consider mine, become his?

Mitchdesj- we will not be hooking up a main water line to it. In our city we would have to pay for a permit and inspection not to mention re-route our plumbing. We basically want a neat way to keep drinks on ice and so forth.

nan nc- I would love to see a pic of yours! Tell DH anything left in your area is liable to be painted pink and adorned with lace :)

probably not what you had in mind (smile). . ."The Carolers" at the Bavinger House (designed by Bruce Goff c. 1950) in Norman, OK. "They" are behind the house (second pic) across a small pond.

Thanks for posting that. I never heard of Bruce Geoff. I've been reading and viewing his work. Fascinating. More reading to do.......

Hi Nan, I have a sink like yours. Please consider posting a picture of how it is mounted. Is your sink cast iron? It takes two people to move ours, so can't figure out how to put it into use. TYA, FraniQ
