Thread: The Outhouse!

Tweet

This is gonna be a HOOTENANNY!!!

That's cool you guys are building an outhouse. I won't have the time/budget for one this year, so I'm just going to convert the bathroom door into one (using brown paper to cover it and make it look like an outhouse door. Post more pics when you get more done! Looks great so far.

Oh Yipee, yipee, yipee I can't wait to see it done!!!

A piece of advice from a previous outhouse owner: You should really find a nice shady spot in the back yard for that there thing! Comes in handy when the electric goes out! Also nothing is finer than to have the door wide open on a beautiful Sunday morning drinking your coffee, reading the paper & taking care of business! lol

That small town I lived in in Nebraska, population 63, 18 houses in town & quite a few old buildings from when the town was booming. The old bank sitting next to my house w/ its outhouse out back. Well ole Dickee Hazen was workin on his shack across the street but the plumbing was still not in. SO one mornin' I'm layin' in bed & the dogs are goin nuts barking. SO I get up, open the window & get ready to scream at them to shut up & here's ole Dickee sittin' in the outhouse doin his business.........there was no door on this outhouse. He did wave good morning to me tho! AHHH yes life in rural America!!lol

Muffy

ROFLMAO!!! Great story! Tho somehow, I can't exactly see my neighbors appreciating it! Wait'll they see the "Cheverly Hillbillies" sign in the yard!

To Funny! One question though...One hole or Two?

that is one of the funniest stories I ever heard that didn't end in "and then the cops came....."

I always wanted to build an outhouse for halloween with a skeleton sitting on it reading the paper but never found the time.

Cut holes in it for the seats and then have something pop out. That way you can traumatise the kids so bad they will never use the outhouse if they go camping. lol

wait is this going to be a prop or an actual functioning outhouse for people to use?

Do you have a haunt that needs an outside toilet?

lol

Im confused because the wood you used doesnt seem that cheap, that side wood is pretty pricey for a prop, lol

LOL! No, it's not going to be a "real" outhouse... And Mr. U, it's got room enough to be a two-seater, but I convinced my DH that he didn't need to cut out any holes. (I was afeared that the bony butt of my Bucky would fall through!!) We're actually going to put my GID Bucky (note no "l" in Bucky) in there holding up an empty TP roll. I'll install a blacklight fixture on the ceiling and hook up a wiper motor to open and close the door. After our high unholy holiday, I plan to use it as a potting shed!

DTS, the cops LOVE our house at Halloween!! We buckled the GID Bucky in the front seat of the minivan last year (see my avatar pic) with a Baxter Big Dog skel in the passenger seat. The cops were calling in "suspect vehicle" calls all month!!

I made this out house last year for a Bucky!
