[Public-List] Fw: wash stand in the head

[Jonathan Adams]

David,

Which Scanvik model was the one you chose? On the Scanvik page, I could not find the whole assembly - do you plan on making the base, or am I just not able to find the thing .

I have the original fixture off and in parts. Does anyone know of a method of getting the aluminium holder/drain really clean and painted nicely. I think the right way is to have it power blasted, and then finished in a shop. I forget the phrase - powder finish? Is it worth doing? Does anyone know the name of someone who could do this cost effectively near Annapolis?

Thanks - interesting how mich trafic this one has generated.

Thanks. Your description its with what I remember of mine and with the
 picture that Dudley submitted. I think a smaller size basin with a
 drain would  be better, just as functional, and maybe, begin to look
 elegant. The basin I found from Scandvik is 9 inches in diamater and 5 inches
 deep. it has a 5/7 flange . This produces a 7 3/4 inche diameter
 basin. Just enough to wash one's hands or brush one's teeth. The drain will
 lie flat against the bulkhead when the basin is stowed.

The stainless bowls from walmart seem practical and cost effective, but
  I would like to have a functional drain since I have a drain hole
 aready in the head.

Thanks for the good wishes - recovery is going well, a painless process
 so far. Sailing time is holy time and must be protected as much as
 possible.
