perhaps post#9 will offer some assistance?

That's awesome!
I was like "post #9? What?" I saw the soap tray, then the 9 in the corner, "ohhhhh!" lol
Thank you! I'll definitely be trying this out.

By the way, cshamilton, this is the one I was telling you about ^

That was me ! I painted the PVC with Krylon Plastic Paint.It's durable and cleans up the whole assembly.I do have one question for Bluebeast,do you glue the PVC together? And whats the function of the horizontal pipes ? My assembly is rock steady in the bucket with out all that extra plumbing.
Great job on the splash guard ! I'll be doing that to mine over the weekend !

Yeah that's the same one I mentioned in the original post. The horizontal pipes are there for support. I did not glue it together, didn't really seem necessary. I looked for something for writing on pvc and couldn't find anything. I'll have to check out that paint. Thanks man!
