Okay, that makes more sense to me...I just saw the line (that looked like a waste line) going over to the gray tank from the toilet. Guess I didn't understand the drawing.

It's always more fun to put start putting things back together...you can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel...and it's not a train!

I didn't draw it but I think that line is showing how the gray line will head over to the black tank to ultimately empty out under the trailer out of one master waste connection.

Actually that thick green line going from the commode should really be coming from the bathroom sink for it to drain to the grey tank.

The master waste water drain connection should be quite a few feet behind the streetside wheelwell so solids won't have far to travel from the black tank under the commode.

Barry - you should take the time now to work out this area of the trailer so that everything that connects such as power, water, waste, cable, is all worked out well ahead of time. Of course, all of the water type connections should be below any electric connections.

This is getting fun.

You're right Brad. Plan, plan, plan now. I want this to go smoothly. One thing for sure, I'm going slow enough on this project that if I do make a mistake, it won't be from hurrying!

Pretty cool - that PDF will come in handy for us as well, I think. Thanks Scott & Barry!

Hi Brad!
We are spending 2012 in our '08 CCD.
Yet I'm so behind on the '55 blog - working to catch it up now!
Are you coming up to the Midwest to camp this summer?
When the '55 is done, then we'd like o get down to a 4CU rally - they always sound soooo fun!!
Kathy
