    Wiat KQ--is the sink for you or for the horses? Cool if it's for the horses.

    I saw the Edmund Fitzgerald once--I cast it off from the ore dock at Great Lakes Steel on Zug Island--the August before it sank.

    Oh, that's what those things are called.

    I always feel like you know when you're in a swanky place when their bathrooms have those.
    No longer stuck.

    Har. I guess in a way the horses already have vessel sinks but sadly they are not marble, just plastic:




    Thanks for all the feedback and the funnies (LOL! I was so focused on sinks aka basins that I never saw the dbl entendre). I've always wonder about how they stood up to everyday use. Cleaning is a consideration for me - I like a tidy vanity that is easy to keep wiped down so I'm thinking under mount is probably better suited to my taste. I agree they do seem a bit pretentious but at the same time I can see their application when space is a consideration. Also, might be interesting in a main floor guest powder if you had such a home which I don't.

    We have this type of sinks in the second bathroom (kid bathroom). I don't see any real advantage or disadvantage. Kinda pretentious way of making a sink, and they're probably going to look ridiculously out of style in another 10 years.

    They came with the house, so whatever.

    For cleanliness, you really can't beat a nice pedestal sink.

    Hate the whole vessel sink thing. To each their own I guess. It makes it hard to wipe blood into the sink from the counter.

    Lol. No. I inherited from my dad a weak blood vessel in my left nostril that also routes in an inconvenient place. Runs in the family. My sister has it too. And one of my kids got it. I get nose bleeds very easily if I don't keep on top of hydration and then blow or pick my nose too vigorously.

    I've been fascinated by Zug Island for years - I think we talked about it here before a while back- wtf is going on there?

    All kinds of google and youtube info out there for anyone interested.

    For starters, what is the hum? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4kPDTWWTv-U

    Kinda freaky that Homeland Security protects this place and photography is illegal. Seems crazy to me at least.

    Two of my cousins worked at the now-defunct Lackawanna Works of Bethlehem Steel - the second biggest in the world at the time after US Steel's Sparrows Point Works (Baltimore). The stories are crazy. Tell us more about Zug Island please.

    Vessel sinks look the part but I can piss in either so it doesn't really matter.

    Yeah I want to hear more about Zug Island too. Great Lakes lore is something that fascinates me.

    And whatever the noise is there is eerie as shit.
    I still call it The Jake.
