Improved Toilet Removal Procedure

We have documented what we believe may be an improved toilet removal process. This is in preparation to replacing our old unit with a new china bowl unit. It worked really well for us!



Hope this helps some…

Hey, Archie!

Why does this turlet removal process remind me of an old episode of "All in the Family"?

Now THAT's innovation! Did the new removal process present any kind of problem once you had... um... digested... the first and interim steps? Like... um... where do you GO when there's extra holes in the john?

I don't remember

I had a little trouble remembering things after it was removed. Things got a little fuzzy.
Oh, the turlet still worked fine - didn't flush without water but you know I had to try just once. Good think I live in the boonies!
My next step is to duct tape it back together. Still hoping someone will take it. It is STILL free to a good home.

Don't forget to sell the used turlet on e-bay - people will buy anything! Call it "rare vintage, lightly used - a few small scratches ..."

I think you should fix it first, you will get a better price. All you need is a soldering iron and some old bleach bottles, be good as new.

Janet, I'm kinda thinkin' that it might be better put to use as a lawn ornament... you know... a little dirt, some weeds growing out of it... and around it, of course...

Oh, this is too sweet!

I am glad I kept it - I think I will be showing the uses for a used turlet based on the suggestions from this thread! No suggestion too absurd

The EC (ebay correct) verbage for listing this item would be:
Worked great the last time we used it!

Like the process...particularly the breaks and the pre-work setups.
