When I stated (NOT AN OPTION) I surely meant that, due to construction below
it just wont work, of course I could remove the entire wall, floor, and
support beams under neath, however due to recently having all 4" cast iron
drains replaced with ABS, along with the 1-1/4" copper tubing drains..in no
way am I about to make changes like you suggest...
but thanks anyway

I could do that rather easily, however since there is already an opening I
would like to keep a visual option below just by chance a leak would
develop. If I do what you propose I would need to lower the vanity onto the
pipes and not have the visual option., as I mentioned I am still considering
using what I cutout to do what you suggest, with the option of being able to
remove it with ease...
Thanks also

I am replacing our old bathroom vanity with a new very expensive one.
Our piping is coming up through the floor, water supply, and drain.
When I installed the old unit I just cut an opening on the floor of the
cabinet in order to
have access to the area below and allow space for installation of the
pipes to the sink above.
Since the new unit is rather pricey, I am wondering if you have any
suggestions
as to how I can install this and keep the inside bottom of the vanity
looking nice.
On the old unit I cut a square and fit a piece of material with cut outs
for the piping.
The piping coming out of the wall is not an option, so it will need to be
cut under neath again.
I am thinking of saving the piece I cut out and someway supporting it with
brackets or clamps after
cutouts are made..
In all probability I will do this exactly as the first was done, however I
am seeking some food for thought..
Many thanks
