I am glad you are going to do a followup in a later magazine edition. The video would be great but I am limited to dial up and it takes too long to download. Keep up the good work. Littledaddydjc@gmail.com

Great video, can't wait for the magazine to come out. I am trying to remodel a 6'8" x 6'6" bathroom similar to that on and was trying to figure out how to do it. Is there any where I can get other ideas on here ? my email is krom_69@hotmail.com.

Thanks, Jim

You said the resident was in a wheel chair. I was surprised not to see handrails on the sides of the toilet. Mirrors and towel bars are often located to be useful for the wheelchair bound. The floor drain for the shower was excellent as well as the tasteful use of handrails in the shower. The pedistal sink a definate improvement over a vanity, but a wall mount is even better as it will not interfere with a wheelchair. If you want to see some of my handycap accessable work contact me at kruegerpainting@q.com or kruegerpainting.biz.

Thank you for the comments! To answer Forfunest's question, here is a link to the Institute for Human Centered Design website, which lists several resources for finding out more info and ideas regarding accessible design: http://www.adaptenv.org/index.php?option=Content&Itemid=294

To rkmost: Good point about including handrails and other grab bars for additional support in the bathroom. The reason we didn't incorporate any into this HANDY project is because the resident in a wheelchair is dependent on others for assistance and wouldn't use them. Moen recently introduced some new grab bars that double as towel bars, paper holders and shower shelves...pretty cool!
