Inspection plate installed in water tank

[Roger Kimble]

The first is of the water tank inspection plate
The second is of the riser for the port a potty made from 2x5's & 1/4 " plywood, makes it the same height as a home stool
The third is of the storage unit under the sink that we put shelves in, look past the coffee pot

Roger, I bet you've got a basement like mine, full of odds and ends that will come in handy sooner or later. How big is the water tank hole and how did you cut it? Thanks for sharing. Raz

This is a 6" deck plate from Amazon, it was cut in with a drill and a rotozip blade.
