Ok, I know you guys are going to make a ton of jokes on this thread but I wanted to know if anyone has seen a portable camping toilet in any of the shops here.
There are two kinds that I know of. One is a chemical toilet that is actually a portable flush toilet and the simpler variety (which is really all I want) is an aluminum tubular framed chair with a toilet seat attached and disposable bags that you hang underneath.
I've looked at the sporting goods and camping places that I know of and haven't seen this item. I noticed what looked like an Army surplus store down in Pranburi but didn't have time to check it out. Has anybody been there and might they have this item?
hhfarang, in some places that sell bathroom fixtures I’ve seen an item that is basically a toilet seat on four legs that is designed to be used to sit over a squat toilet.
If you can’t find anything else perhaps you could get one of those and improvise the plastic bag bit.

Can you be a bit more specific. What weight of tubing, what are the bolt sizes. What is the tolerance between the horizontal struts and the uprights.
Having a dump in the woods is serious business. Ask the Pope or any bear you meet.

It's probably a lot easier and less expensive to find a normal porcelain house toilet, put it in the pick-up truck and simply place it on the ground at your camping site. When time to go home, rinse it out and repeat step #2 above. You could also just actually unbolt the one you have at home and take it with you. Pete

Yes, mine also in a brand new house, but...only the two downstairs. The three upstairs are bolted. Cement floor in all locations, so go figure what their thinking was.
The poop thickens. One downstairs is kind of outside in an area that would be the maids quarters if we had a live in maid. One of the workmen here obviously was using it, dropped his drawers, sat down, and a box cutter slipped out of his pants pocket and into the toilet. Did he tell anyone....NO!!! Days later everything started to back up and I was plungering myself to death, not knowing of course that I could plunge for eternity and no way the box cutter would come out.
Workmen finally had to 'chip' the toilet loose from the cement and fish for the damn thing for 2 hours as it was jammed in the gooseneck area. What a mess and what a job for them to remove the toilet due to the cement fastenings. Pete
