Topic: Awning, Bathroom, & TV Posted: 29 Aug 2010 at 10:16pm |
I need to try an "up high" solution for our toilet paper (I assume that is what you meant by TT?). For now we just pull it out of the bathroom when we shower.

Used my bathroom for the first time this past trip(instead of a storage closet) Took the stupid rod out of the bathroom (the one that holds the clothes bag, which has been put in the attic closet). The rod gets in the way of moving the shower curtain around behind the pot> This must be a last minute try at having a "closet" in the Pod! I tried pulling the curtain all the way around, then picking it up in front of the pot and kept things drier. Have the corner, tiered pole with shelves and it works great. TT on top did not get damp at all. Left the lid popped up and fan on low to dry out the place and did a light spray down with clorox/water mix to combat mold building up. AND did the draining of the sewer first time, chock to chock. The rig is clearly doable. Even for an oldie like me and just starting to learn ALL the things.

I'm so sorry- I don't....I even went out to see if I left the instructions in the pod, but I didn't. It is, as Roxy said, the cheapest one you can find- should be around $15 or so and it has 4 plastic shelves with various size rods to customize height. One rod has the spring in it. Hope that helps, and yes, we will have it at the roundup!

We bought a couple of the "Dispensers" to put in the shower for shampoo & soap. And I LOVE the 3M Command hooks that I use everywhere. The wire shelf shouldn't be too much of a problem with getting wet. Most of the water gets on the lower 2/3 of the walls. I switched out the fabric shower curtain with a plastic one and cut to fit better. The corner caddy is a good idea too. It'll fun to see at the roundup what everyone has done to make the Pod their own.

I bought one too but I put it in the wrong spot and need to move it- purchased mine at Bed, Bath and Beyond- Cheapest model- metal posts and plastic, adjustable shelves just like in the picture. Mine came with 4-5 pieces for the post and different lengths. I used only the shortest pieces and left the longest one out. Worked ok for fit that way.

Lots of great ideas. I will check out the Tink's sister's Tab at the Roundup in June. I would like to have something that doesn't require a ladder to install.

I love the shower caddy, Tusten! My first question when I saw it was...I wonder if they have the exact UPC code so I could be sure I got the same one. So, do you?

![](http://www.rpod-owners.com/uploads/204/shower_caddy.jpg) I bought this tension mounted plastic shower caddy for $16 at Walmart and it works perfectly in the "dead space" corner in the back right side of the toilet. I stowe everything for travel in the pockets and use the shelves at the site. Even good to hold toilet paper. I'll take a picture of it in the pod, but this is pretty much the exact unit and the profile is small enough to be out of the way. The shelf heights are adjustable. We did have to make one cut in one of the rods to make it shorter to fit, but it holds well with the spring mount from floor to ceiling and no wall holes.

Well they are plastic coated so they should not rust if they get wet. As far as the curtain may need to make some mods that would allow it to go around. I will not be ding this mod as I'm a little bit taller than you at 6'4" and I hit my head on just about everything even outside

I'm 5'2" and Myra is 4'10" so above the toilet this looks pretty good. What about rust? What about the shower curtain wouldn't it get in the way. Just thinking??
Also check out the t@b trailer awning. It might work for an R-pod.
