This "autonomous" sink was originally crea … This "autonomous" sink was originally created for a nursery school classroom.
The classroom didn't have a water line connection, and we didn't want the sink to rely on electricity either. This idea emerged in the COVID era and its concern with sanitation.
We conceived of this sink with the idea that it could equally serve in other contexts, a stand-alone workshop or studio, for example.
We opted, then, for a shelving system that could be adjusted in height, permitting the user to adjust it to the desired size.the user to adjust it to the desired size. +

...To avoid dealing with multiple suppliers, we got the majority of the specialized materials concerning the sink on the site www.mon-camping-car.com We didn't find exactly everything we needed there. The foot pump is 12mm and the tap is 10mm, so we had to use two types of clear tubing and an adapter to get the right dimensions for the tap
'''Directions'''
#Connect the clean water bucket to the foot pump. Attach the 16/12 (1.2 meters) tube to the nozzle of the clean water bucket. Then, connect the 16/12 tube to the foot pump (The nozzle on the right when viewed from the bottom (water intake)).
#Connect the foot pump to the swivel spout tap. Link the 16/12 (20cm) tube from the foot pump to the adapter and then to the 10/12 (40cm) clear tube which goes toward the swivel spout tap.he adapter and then to the 10/12 (40cm) clear tube which goes toward the swivel spout tap. +, '''Materials'''

...Double use for this board. While it fixes the pedal in place, it also creates an anti-tipping system for the shelf. This could also be reinforced by fixing the shelf directly to the wall.
Two possible options: one being to fix the board to the feet of the shelf, the other being for the more handy, to make a cut-out to embed the feet of the shelf into the anti-tipping board. We present here the second choice.
