New AS potty

Last weekend we had 11 trailers turn out for our campout just North of Dallas. Gave me a chance to try out my new outdoor potty. He're a pic of my good friend RivetED breaking it in.

Tin Hut... your inginuity never ceases to amaze me. Talk about building a better mousetrap! Why, you could make $millions on this one! The simplicity is incredible... an outhouse... without a pit and without a house! Wow!

I can see these springing up on streetcorners all over the U.S.... why it would practically solve the lack of public toilet availability everywhere. You're a GENIUS! Just think, no smell, no mess, and nothing to write graffitti on! Amazing!!!!

This is just one more of those "why didn't I think of that" things...

Roger

On edit: AH HA! You've just given me the inspiration for a new patent based on an improvement in your design... portable toilet PARK BENCHES!!!! It would add a decorative touch, and alleviate the need for those unsightly plastic portable toilets that you see at functions and construction sites! Just think, you could beautify ANY setting just by adding portable toilet park benches!!!

I don't know, that TP holder looks a little crude to me.

I don't want to say this is crude, but...

Tin Hut, Tin Hut, Tin Hut!!

This is as staged a picture as anything ever on America's Home Videos. Go to http://www.bumperdumper.com/ and learn about the real McCoy!!!

This is one item you actually can put on the rear bumper of an Airstream without risking frame separation or whatever....

Can we be serious ?

Aren't you supposed to pull down your pants before engaging
in defacatory excercises.
I know it is only a prototype but, it didn't look like the wheels were balanced, and you really should have chocked the wheels. It would be nice if the final design incorporated a macerator and an AGM battery, and maybe some stabilizers. But that's just my 2 cents.

gotta go gotta go gotta go right now

perfect solution for amenities on the trail. Just connect the handle to your tote and never be caught short again.

hmmm, I wonder for the ultimate in portable pottybility if one might just be able to rig the hose and tank up to one of those personal johnies.

Well heck - i gotta have one! More cool stuff to load into the tow vehicle. Does it come in colors? Is there a discount for more than one - his and hers? Is the seat heated?
