1954 Shasta frame off restor
My trailer has no toilet just a sink so aren’t I looking at a hole in the tank for the P -trap, a hole for the guillotine valve and some vent system?
Do I really need to put a 1 1/2 vent pipe from my gray tank through the trailer and out the roof? Isn’t there a much less obtrusive, equally
productive approach? Any videos out there that don’t include directions on plumbing showers and toilets too? I Just need simple.

That is exactly what I am suing and doing in our Scotty. Gonna get the roll around tank since most places won't allow grey water on the ground. |

Could someone explain to me how that drain works? I currently just have a plastic tube clamped directly to my sink and running outside. Does this have any benefit compared to that?
(Asking as someone whose plastic tube is currently clogged, which happens every few months when food sneaks under the mesh drain cover.)

They screw onto a standard sink drain, and the other end is a 3/4" fitting (standard garden hose fitting). The tube in between is easy enough to remove and cut, or you can replace it with a longer tube. I don't think it would necessarily be better than a clamped hose, but it is "plug and play", it screws right on. No trial-and-error finding out how to get a sink drain to a smaller hose.

My vintage sink has a garden-hose-sized drain which explains why I didn't understand the purpose of this! |
