Neat! It looks like sims can get a glass of water from it. My farm sims could use this, and my early industrial age sims. Thanks for sharing.

QUESTION: Does it do anything else? Can sims try to wash their hands, dishes, or babies in it? (I wouldn't want to if that would show the basin filling animation, would look wrong with a pump.)

If I remember correctly I took out the basin of water. They can wash their hands and get a drink. They can't bath a baby. I will double check my setting on this as it was about a month ago I created it. YOu have brought up some very good points...thanks for asking.

Do you think you can make a version where they can't use it during winter?

I will look into this for you. I still have a lot to learn about codes and am unfamiliar with what would keep them from using in the winter. I can't think of an item that does this to look at how it was coded. Do you know of any or anyone else?

I would check the modding forums and maybe ask in the object creation workshop if you get stuck. They helped me when I couldn't figure something out.

This looks great in my campground! It works great, my sims even washed dishes with it.

This is a lovely object and it’s perfect for my farm themed lots. There is a small glitch though, that happens in my game when I try to use the swatch thingy to recolour the pump. When I try, a white tile appears below and behind the object and once it’s there, the only way to get rid of it is to delete the object. It’s not a big deal, because you only have to choose the correct colour you want when you place the object, and everything works fine when it’s in use. It only goes wonky when you try to recolour. I thought you might like to know.
I’ve downloaded a bunch of your things; you do wonderful work and it’s much appreciated. Thank you!

It sound's like the wall masks for a regular sink are pulling in. I haven't had this happen to me but I'll check it to see if there is a way to fix it for you.

Can you make a red recolor of this? If you could that would be great. I would do it myself but I know nothing of recoloring or meshing. By the way I love your work.
