Stainless steel pail costs about 80 to 100
N.B. You build the cabinet around the
receptacle, and not the other way around. It is
therefore wiser to purchase your receptacle
before starting work. The cabinet dimensions
will be adapted to the receptacle size.

proper fit.

These measurements depend on the cut-out of panel
c. Adjust receptacle position with respect to
seat position, considering that a deflective
urine baffle will be added inside the oval.

THE PLAN
W
Panel y (it need not be nailed )?
Wood blocking supports (to be nailed to side
panels)
Panel x ( to be nailed to the underside of
the wood blockings )?
W is a recess to house the receptacles handle.
W must be as small as possible ! (W depends on
your type of receptacle). Z depends on the
receptacle height. If the receptacle is smaller,
panel x will be adjusted accordingly
(positioned higher with respect to the lower edge
of the side panels).
7Assembly
THE PLAN
Knob used to lift panel c for pail removal
Align handles with BLTs centre of gravity (with
receptacle in place) !
Handles
It is preferable to nail a stainless steel (or
plastic) baffle at front of hole in panel c.
Nailed skates
The deflective baffle is needed to prevent
urinating between the receptacle and the
cabinet, unless your receptacle rests up against
the underside of the toilet seat.
