Hoping to install the new head and repaired holding tank this evening. 22 gallons should get us by for a while, unless we develop a peeing disorder and have to go every hour. Ewwwww!
Sanding the port cover in preparation for fiberglass/epoxy.

Safety first! Nitrile gloves and heavy duty (though not asbestos rated, I think) respirator.
Broke the head.

I was installing the last piece from the $75 rebuild kit and the flange in the photo cracked. It’s one of two attachment points that seal the “discharge port” so we’re not taking any chances. New head tomorrow!
The bummer, other than all the wasted time, is that the rebuild kit I have doesn’t fit the new model of this head. The new one does have something called twist and lock. Weee.
Scrubbing the holding tank. A temp fix for the leaks is to lay a few sections of fiberglass and epoxy it.

Working on pulling up the head flooring

The previous owner glued the flooring down and we have no idea what is underneath. Possibly a bag of money or a few tanks. Either way, this will create a touch more headroom for Steven.
