I commented when I got my 4730 Chamber of Secrets set that the bathroom was pretty cheesy. I've finished my MOD on the room to include four sinks, stunning tiled floor, two stalls with designer toliets, a pipe filled crawl space under the stalls for (...)

I ended up using all the DkGray 2x4 slopes I had for the roof. I think I will (...) (22 years ago, 27-Oct-02, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.town)
