We put a 24 inch shower pan in and used the existing walls. I made my own "custosm" oval copper shower rod by shaping 1/2 inch pipe. The shower curtain can then come all the way around.

I would love to see a picture of the shower that you came up with. I am in the middle of a bathroom remodel myself.

This is an interesting thread.

Dannie, I'd love to see pics and others, too, who have done this modification.

1 piece f-glas shower enclosure

how about a one piece unit, cut on top (judiciously) to match the AS shape(s)? door or curtain across the opening.

Sounds like a fine idea...do you know where I might find one? I've looked at a couple 24"x36" tubs that would work but they don't seem to utilize the space well.
