    Default Robert's Dunny

    Just thought I would share this with you.
    My Son-in-Law aked me to build him a Dunny for the bucket on his unserviced bush block. He left the planning to me- so I thought I would design something which was appropriate to the setting.
    He loved it and shows it off to all his friends- but oddly enough, no-one else has asked me to build them one!!!
    If at first you don't succeed, try, try again-- then give up.
    It's no use bashing your head against a wall!

    Federation architecture...very classy.
    Those are my principles, and if you don't like them . . . well, I have others.

    Ripper, Dendot. Sorry I can't think of a pun to go with Wongo's comment

    Have you ever read a book called 'The Specialist' by Chick Sale, about a bloke who specialises in building dunnies?

    It needs that seat that was around the Melbourne Wood Show quite a few years ago.

    I think it was some form of mallee. It had thorn like protusions all over it, and of course the token redback - potted - on the inside edge of the seat, right next to where your posterior would land

    G'day Dendot,

    What's the funny wee gizmo on the upper front facade? a satellite receiving antennae? and if so, to which channel is it tuned might one ask

    Cheers!

    Or something that a character out of a 'Drysdale' would use.

    Great dunny, it has ambience.
    Try one like this next time, it allows for the class system.

    It only takes one drink to get me loaded. Trouble is, I can't remember if it's the thirteenth or fourteenth.
