I have been perusing the KSL classifieds constantly for a good deal on a stainless steel sink. We had a cast iron sink that, while it kept the water hot, I hated. It was always stained. It felt like I was going to break every glass dish I washed in it. I didn't even ever fill it with water to take advantage of the keeping-water-hot feature.
Anyway, here is the sink right after I paid $15 for it
And here is the old sink in all its dirty glory.
Just making sure it fits! Haha...
All done! It took about 3 hours total.
The absolute hardest part was getting the old sink out. It was HEAVY! And then I thought I could salvage the sink basket strainers (the drains) from the old sink, which was an awful idea. I ended up cutting my hand up on the rough underside of the sink while trying to unscrew the bolt that held the drains on. So I just went to the home improvement store and bought a couple of cheapo drains to install.
Now that the project is finished (one of my fasted projects yet!) I am so incredibly happy with the results. I love knowing that I can do almost anything... assuming I have an internet connection to Google the instructions.
Does anyone want a cast iron sink? It's 8" deep, normal sink size as far as width and depth go.
