I decided to make a mini fridge for this application out of sheet Styrene and chrome sprue fir the handles (which will be removed when I primer and paint it.).

Made the spigot out of a rollbar and the hot and cold water faucets out of a couple of wheel knock offs. .

I certainly did not expect how difficult it was to fabricate the sink out of a flat piece of aluminum.Still somewhat crude but I will take steps to improve the framework of the sink. sheesh!never made a scale sink before but wow!/crazy!  

Would it possibly be easier to make a sink out of Milliput or something like that and paint it aluminum? Those compound curves in the corners would be fun to form in real aluminum.

Put the plastic plates on and the Dog house engine cover is quite large but perfect for a table or perhaps stationary seating while the Winnebago is parked;.
