- In this episode, I try to upgrade my old bathroom vanity with a repurposed laminate countertop and a budget-friendly vessel sink. This will be the first time working on plumbing. Let's see how it goes!

When you randomly find your co-worker is awesome at DIY stuff. Literally typed in vessel sink install and bam, here's Duy. Keep it up Duy; you're the man in life and at work it turns out!
🤣 I needed to find a creative outlet while quarantining. Don't worry...I won't quit my day job! 😂 Hope your vessel sink install came out awesome!
Pretty Cool 😎✌️
Yes!!!!! I’m shopping for a countertop to update my old vanity to accommodate a “free” vessel sink that I was given!! Everything is $300-$600 bucks!!!! I am going to tile a piece of plywood and use it as a countertop…kinda following your instructions!! Wish me luck!!
Excellent tutorial. We are in process of remodelling our bathroom. Your tutorial made the installation look doable. Thank you. Keep those dyi's coming.
Good luck and have fun with your remodeling process! I'm sure it's going to look amazing!
Great tip about the cyclone effect!
One little strip of LED lights around the base and I think it would take it to another level.
Thank you! This project is exactly what I am going to do! So helpful!
I have one of these and the faucet is like a waterfall type and it is beautiful...but it is so loud! Haha
Thanks great quick budget friendly refresh.
Beautiful you did a great job🤙🏽
You did a great job! 😃
I'm glad you liked the video! Hope this motivates you to start your project?!
Bravo pour cette belle réalisation!!!
Looks good. Thank you.
This is awesome!
I appreciate the compliment! I hope this motivates you on your future DIYs!
Thanks and i like your smile and voice.
Awesome job man
Good job on your DYI. That chrome tube aka part as you called it (6:42 time mark) is called a tail piece. The adaptor is a tail piece adaptor. Only thing Different on this nice install I would have sealed the recycled press wood that you drilled through while you still had the tape on. Water causes press wood aka mfd boards to swell if it comes into contact.
Thanks for the tip! I'll make sure to follow your suggestion when I need to remove the top again to replace the vanity carcass.
You rocked it!
Nice upgrade
Awesome!
Love it
👍 for angle mount faucet. Well done.
Thank you!
Thank you!!! Very helpful!
You did a great job! Very creative and inspiring, hopefully you'll be uploading more videos! I'm a new subscriber to this channel now.
I appreciate your comment and your subscription! I hope to bring more useful content to you. =)
Thanks dude
Very nice.
Such a nice project!
Thanks for the video! I just bought a vessel sink that is 5.3 inches tall and I’m trying to figure out how tall the faucet needs to be. Would you happen to know?
Personally i would angled the faucet on to the back side so that you can wash your face in the sink easily but thanks for the video
That's another great option! Thanks for taking the time to view my video and providing feedback.
grab yourself some nice border ceramic tile and put it on where the back splash was. Prevents matching paint and gives your bathroom a nice finished look. Only a couple of rows is needed. ;-)
Thank you. Did you put any sealant under the top lip of the pop up drain?
Once your hands are under the flow of water, there must be some (a lot) of splashback on the Vanity top and floor with the faucet angled to the side like that.
nice 🛀🚿🚽👍
Great video! What is the size on your P-trap? The metal pipe that comes with the sink is smaller than my 1.5" P trap connection. Did you have this problem or is your P-trap the same size as the metal pipe?
Hi there! My P-trap extender is also a 1.5". Link here: www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-1-2-in-x-12-in-White-Plastic-Slip-Joint-Sink-Drain-Tailpiece-Extension-Tube-C9793A/205154109. When I tightened the slip-joint nut onto the silver piece, the rubber gasket made a very tight seal. Is that not occurring with your setup?
Thanks for the video? Is your vessel sink not moving? What do you recommend so it does not move?
It does move a bit if I put a bit of force into turning it. For me, the rubber gasket helps a bit.
Hey, what adapter did you buy from your hardware store, what is it called, dimensions etc? I'm running into the exact same problem and need to buy it. Thanks!
Hey there! Here is a link to the part I purchased: www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-1-4-in-x-6-in-White-Plastic-Slip-Joint-Sink-Drain-Tailpiece-Extension-Tube-C9790BG/205153709 Hope this helps out.
How did you mount the wood top to the cabinet? With glue, screws?
Hi there. I used small metal L brackets with screws.
Right beneath the bowl, is that gadget called "mounting ring"?
Yes! The sink came with one, but if you needed a replacement, here is a link: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EPNK1K2
How tall was the actual cabinet? Most vanities are now 33.5" tall, plus the counter top height and a vessel is approximately 6" tall making the sink too high in the end. That's my issue right now lol
Oh no! I'm sorry about that. To the top of my counter is 32", the vessel sits 6" above for a total height of 38". I'm guessing that would be more difficult for children to access?
@@slipperynoodlez Yeh after research I found that the average height WITH the sink should be at 36 or less but no higher. Thanks!
Hi, did you use a pop up drain with overflow?
Hi, yes I did! It came with the faucet and sink.
What size was the hole saw ?
The forstner bit I used was a 1" diameter.
Anyone got a link to the item in his hand at the 8:00 mark? I've searched till I'm blue in the face without any luck. Thanks!
If you look for "faucet fittings" or "supply line adapter" on Amazon, you should get some hits! Here is an example: www.amazon.com/PackCompression-Fitting-Reducer-Plumbing-Connector/dp/B0BFL28VCX. You'll just need to know what sizes you're trying to convert to. Hope this helps!
@@slipperynoodlez Thanks for the quick reply. Some of those look similar to what you had available. I may need to plan on buying the correct water valve to make sure I get the best connection with the fewest parts. Thanks again!
Make sure you remove the water restrictor.

Man I cut my board twice and it's still too small....!
Oh no! Maybe you can use some spare cardboard as a template to get the right size before anymore cutting?
Measure twice cut once
Do you have a Instagram account??
Awesome video
I don't have an IG account, and I appreciate the compliment!
