    School me on the topic of toilets ;)

    Good stuff. Yeah I read another thread where some people are really hung up on calling it a composting toilet because it's not totally composted usually. I don't think the name implies that it totally composts, just that it is composting.

    School me on the topic of toilets ;)

    I agree with that but I also believe that for most environments, it's not a problem. Especially in moist areas, it decomposes fast. I agree with you too. I don't see the point of throwing away the composted or semi composted waste.

    Whale hot water heater tank or Isotemp?

    Ok good info. I didn't realize it was an aluminum tank. That's ok I suppose. I can understand the price difference in the isotemp unit now as it has a 316ss tank.

    Whale hot water heater tank or Isotemp?

    Definitely want 110v option with heat exchanger. I like how the whale is configurable with it's heat ex placement and it's a good bit cheaper than the isotherm unit with similar options and size. It will take up more space though. If the isotherm unit is better in some way I will go with that...

    Whale hot water heater tank or Isotemp?

    Very similar dimensions even though the Whale unit isn't round so it takes up more space really. The whale unit is cheaper but claims more capacity. Otherwise they do the same and have the same options...

    My exterior is 100% aluminum skin so no worries there.

    FRP interior panels? Not finding much on here

    There are all sorts of colors and patterns available in FRP. Are we talking about something different? http://www.marlite.com/designer-wall-systems-frp-wall-panels.aspx

    FRP interior panels? Not finding much on here

    I also have a radius in the top roof corners so hopefully something that will bend a good bit. I have seen 1/16" plastic panels that I believe will bend that much

    FRP interior panels? Not finding much on here

    Who uses what for interior walls and ceiling? Planning on FRP panels in my build but I am open to suggestions. We want a couple different colors and patterns and to keep the weight down so those are the main concerns.

    1999 Chevy S10 ZR2 Camper build.

    Latest progress, I got the first counter top and the fridge shelf structure done. Then I rough fitted the counter top as well. I also built the entry door and redid the pass through into the cab. I will be making a dinner table for the camper that will be shaped like the pass through hole so it...

    School me on the topic of toilets ;)

    It seems counterproductive to throw the composted waste in the garbage. I plan on dumping it in the woods somewhere and spreading it around. Seems like the best approach. Harmless and not burdening landfills.

    1999 Chevy S10 ZR2 Camper build.

    Also just ordered my first appliance, the biggest one, an Engel 45qt fridge freezer. I am going to build it's platform so it mounts level with the counter top. Came across a killer deal on it too from a friend.

    Camper lighting required for road use in the USA

    I searched on here so sorry if this has been covered. I am assuming I can just mimic the lighting on most RVs and be road legal. I found the law defined in Tennessee and I assume it's the same more or less state to state. What I would love is a diagram showing placement if someone has one. My...
