NCWW,
I am remodeling our hall bath in our manufactured home. One of the things we replaced was the vanity which now does not cover the drain pipe (2x3 walls so pipe wouldn't fit in wall). Now I have about a 6.5" gap between the wall and vanity. The opening is about 18" deep and about 33" to the top of the counter. The pipe sticks out about 8" from the back wall and comes up about 27". I want to build some sort of shelving to hide the pipe and provide a place to store some towels, etc. I am also considering extending it up between the mirror and wall as well (more storage). This section would be close to the same width of 6" but only 8" deep and an undetermined height. I am planning to paint it a gloss white to match the vanity.
Any thoughts on how to build this?
I am looking at getting materials from the local big blue box. Not sure if I should use plywood or what they call Appearance Boards. Suggestions?
Since I don't have the same countertop, I am not sure if the lower box should end a few inches above or below the vanity. (I lean towards about 3" above)
Thanks in advance,
Jim
