Sometimes the mind wanders off a little too far… Why don’t they make a urine colored bathroom grout for floor tile? It would keep us guys out of the dog house.

I'd have to say that your sights are off. :-)
I prefer to set mine an inch high at 100 yards.

*Stan, Ya just have to adj the angle about 2" to the right and compensate for wind.
*When I get around to building my dream home someday,I will have a floor length urinal in my bathroom,and in my two boys bathroom..well,they will be long gone and outa the house by then...definately in my bathroom.jw
*And don't even bother trying first thing in the morning...
*Sounds like you've got the right idea, jwheck.I live alone (too smart, or is it too dumb, to get married) and plan to add a urinal to the master bath this summer.Maybe I should just install it on the bedroom wall. That would make getting up to do the 3 am visit a little less frustrating.I guess I could pretty much guarantee a single life if a prospect ever saw a urinal in the bedroom!
*jwheck - reminds me of a Spring Break from college in the 1960s when a bunch of us went to a "ladies bar" in Mazatlan, Mexico. The urinal was a tiled trench along the entire back wall of the bar - right out in the main part of the bar, no doors, no walls. And, being a ladies bar, there were lots of ladies there to watch...
*That might give you a case of 'stage fright' :)Seriously,I've always wanted a urinal in my bathroom,I think it would be easier to clean and keep clean,and would use less water.Why aren't they in every home bathroom?jwps and no lid to leave up!
*When I was a kid, my grandparents had a portable urinal in my bedroom - they also called it the honeybucket or the slop jar. (The alternative was the "two holer" about 100' away through the snow and sleet). Anyway, might be a less pricey alternative until you get it built...
*When I was in Europe for Uncle Sam the germans have a urinal w/a hose bid to clean the thing. By the way not to brag but I was pretty good at hitting the occasional bug on the wall. I was a regular sharp shooter
*pigment's readily available...|:-)>|brian
*Keep at it Stan. It'll be the color you want after awhile. Joe H
*Hey Ron, where in Germany and when? I did Ramstein AFB and Stuttgart Afld in the late 60's early 70's. Remember that toilet paper that looked and felt like cardboard? Those ole Gasthauses with the tiled wall urinals were the only way to go after a couple of brews!!
*i floor length urinal Code violation, sorry. Too bad, too.Jeff
*I wasn't aware of that,Jeff.What particular code addresses this issue?You mean I can't have a floor length urinal in my own home?I suppose a wall hung unit is ok?I'm racking my brain trying to come up with the reasoning on this,and what I get so far is that children could play hide'n'seek in them??jw
*i What particular code addresses this issue?The only one that matters - prohibited by the National Standard Plumbing Code.Jeff
*no wonder I didn't know about it....all I know about plumbing is that the sh*t usually flys in all directions Oh,well,that dream house looks no closer now than it did 20 years ago...jw
*Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.When I got engaged, an older man I was working with gave me some good advice: "If you want to have a long and happy marriage, sit when you pee." So I have... for 18 years now. OK sometimes I kneel down on one knee and hang it over the edge. Either way, same effect.... no splatter, no mess, and my wife really appreciates it. It's really not much of an inconvienence when you think about it.
*Board sailor,I was in schwabish gumund 72-74 its right near stuttgart about 70 klicks or so (cant remember exactly) 1/41 FA
*Jeff (or anyone),>floor length urinal Code violation> The only one that matters - prohibited by the National Standard Plumbing Code. But...why????Rich Beckman
*Inquiring minds want to know....jw
*Crust,...But that means I'll have to get rid of the framed slogan over the toilet saying"MY aim is to keep this place clean, Your aim will help! " :)
*I won ten bucks off this girl in a Juarez,Mx bar once. She was bragging about useing the men's room at a concert one time , so I bet her that she wouldn't use the one in this bar.Well she went in there and came right back out , complaining that it didn't have any stalls just one long trough. I said "Well, you didn't ask, so pay up", and she did. We ended up going out for about a year after that.Dave
