Spoiler alert: the drain is just a straight pipe to a bucket below the counter.

Yo, calm down there Holmes. I'm a pro. I put gravel in there to filter out the big chunks.

No. It goes to the piss drawer.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

If razors can go in the wall, why shouldn't piss go in a drawer? I gotta do some home improvement work to make this happen.

I'm sure my landlord will appreciate the new piss drawer :D

Let me get my pinking shears.

Apparently, the workers installed the countertop on top of the sink when the owner was not at home, and the wife signed the documents accepting the work.
The dude had to cut holes with improvised tools.

This is my version of what happened.

YOU'RE DID IT!!!!

So, what's the real story here?

[–] [email protected] 60 points 9 months ago

Counters are installed whole like that sometimes. I can imagine that maybe the contractor's router broke or was lost or stolen and they had to come back the next day with the router to cut the proper hole but in the meantime he just rough cut a couple holes with the buzz saw so that the homeowners can use their sink.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 months ago

My guess is that they followed the manual, skipping a few steps, glued the sink before cutting, panicked and then voilà.

What is the purpose of the little tiny sink on the left?

I'm not shaming! Maybe it's something important? Maybe I need a tiny little extra sink next to my sink? What have I been missing out on???

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

The small one is to use as a sink when the big one is full of week old dirty dishes.

Note the bottle of Fairy, the UK equivalent of Dawn. It's not a waste disposal, it's a fucking useless sponge holder, in my experience

This will be a fun new addition to my vocabulary.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 9 months ago

They're not common in the UK.

The little sink is just that really. I use it for pouring liquids down the drain when washing dishes and the main sink is full of water.

Rinsing sink, for kitchens with limited counter space. My kitchen is small and has one of these. It's just wide enough for one of these.

Emergency back up sink when you fill other one up with dirty crap. Designed to make you panic and hopefully do something about the real sink. I've always hated double sink designs. They just use a bunch of extra space that could have been more sink.

Some hipster design shit right there.

It's rustic really.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago

Perfect 👌

[–] [email protected] 11 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Any chance it's being held up by milk crates?

It’s got that rustic look to it.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

I'm more fascinated by the countertop. Although thin and probably composite rather than natural stone, it's still stone and that can get really expensive. It might honestly get more expensive to do this and fix it later than just do it right from the getgo.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Looks like corian, so plastic. So long as those cuts don't extend past the basin, it can be fixed with a router and a couple bits. If they do extend past the basin, probably bottom right, then you could fix it with resin and make it pass anything but a close inspection with some skill.

It might be the type of basin that drops in from the top, which would be easier to fix and would be more likely to hide the bad cuts under the flange.

Any idea what material the countertop is made of? Looks like acrylic.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

Would guess Formica?

I understand DIWhy is more for things that, no matter how well built they are, just shouldn't be done at all.

This is something that should be done.

Jesus Christ. Was there a shortage at the template factory or what?
