I showcase a DIY camp commode.
Today I wanted to build a camp shower/restroom area but the steel supplier was closed to the public due to COVID. So I decided to build a camp commode with a full size, standard house lid. It is heavier than most "portable" toilets but it is also much, much sturdier...

good lookin litter bucket cover I have long liked that basic design as it is easy to build, and can easily work with a pit latrine or a kitty litter bucket. I built a similar one for a group I used to go camping with. we also had an "outhouse" complete with "quarter moon" decoration on the door flap made out of 3/4" PVC pipe and lightweight canvas. one of the girls painted the canvas to look like ratty rough sawn boards (complete with painting knotholes here and there). was an outhouse any hillbilly would have been proud of, and it carried easily in a pickup bed. I used hinges and padlock hasps so the box could fold flat.
