I've done the math and I figured I do about 70 percent of my crapping outside. That used to not be a problem. But age and bad knees are starting to make it more and more difficult. I'm seriously considering buying a couple of these.
Or I could make them easy enough. It would be a pain having to pull the hitch out to mount the thing all the time. I figure I could weld a dedicated receiver off on one side...any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Spend one day in India and you will never debate crapping outside again

I don't debate it. But as you get older it gets tougher . Even with a post or a low hanging limb to hang onto. How do they handle it in India?
 
Years ago we had a crew out building fences & corrals at the barnyard. Did a fab job, done in a week. At the time we had hay bales lined up directly north of the barnyard, 2 rows wide. One windy day we couldn't figure out WTH was flying in the air until we looked around & discovered the crew's personal toilet in-between the bales. Well, okay, at least they did use TP but would it have killed them to bury it?? And I don't mean just the wayward TP.

I hope no one asks me what I learned on Cattle Today today! :oops:

Why not a 5-gallon bucket turned upside down with a hole cut in it?

Or this: https://www.sportsmansguide.com/pro...s-loo-portable-camo-toilet-5-gallons?a=278123

I don't wanna carry a bucket of crap around with me. For Pete's sake...
.

Use it and then "dump" it out. :D

Yeah so then I've gotta dirty bucket to haul around, and the crap is on the ground. I think it just makes sense to eliminate the bucket. We're out in the brush, not on someones lawn. Everyone that does any amount of work out in the brush deals with this so let's try to be serious. Because it is a real issue. I mean you can't just drop everything and drive to town...... actually if I'm working in town, I'm most likely going to drive out to the country before I go in a dam gas station. ...

I am being serious. You can line the bottom with TP. The rig you first posted had it going on the ground too. I know this is a problem and have it happen to me from time to time. I am assuming you have a shovel on the truck. I just think it is more convenient than welding something on the truck and then you still have the ground problem.

Yes, the "dump" thing was me being cute, but otherwise, I think it is a cheap and easy solution.
 
You would be surprised how important bowel movement was considered in the 1920s and 1930s. It was the "health" fad of the times like the keto diet is today. My maternal grandfather never went anywhere without toilet paper. People of those times in the hills of Kentucky considered a good bowel movement as important as exercise. My mom said granddad would line them up once a week for a dose of laxative - I have forgotten the name but it was later discovered to be a carcinogen. Lol.

Anyway, my maternal Uncle adopted many of those habits. When I was living in Montana and he was in his early 70s, he and my aunt came for a visit. We took them to Yellowstone. My Aunt and Uncle had the room next to us. It was getting about 9 am and I wanted to get out and show them the park. Aunt Clara knocked on the door and said "Bill is so upset". I said why. She said because his bowels won't move. She said please give us more time because Bill will be a pain in the azz the rest of the day if he don't have a good morning bowel movement.

I've said it before.... when you see a man walk off into the brush and come back missing a shirt sleeve. That's a man that forgot his toilet paper.

My Uncle said he used a lot of handkerchiefs until he trained himself to carry toilet paper. Lol

So true! When I was 15 years younger and my knees could take it, I used to run 3 or 4 miles everyday. One particular evening in upstate NY, I got 2 miles into my run and my guts let me know i was in trouble. Ducked down in a ravine and cut it loose. Came up out of the ravine missing a shirt sleeve. Continued on.

Look up the history of John Harvey Kellogg. He was a Dr. and responsible for Kellogg Cereal and it was done for bowel health. He also believed in abstinence from M-F relations (except for female treatment for "hysteria").
