A while back Art gave me a stainless steel sink that I'm going to use for my back yard fish cleaning station.

The faucet that it came with was pretty much destroyed...yeah I know, I also thought he was kind of a prick for giving me something that doesn't work but I chose to be the bigger person and not judge him for it.   :smt003

So I've been searching for a new faucet but they are either really expensive or aren't even close to what I'm looking for.  I figured someone here might either have an old one they want to sell or know where I could get one cheap.

It's supposed to use a wall mount type faucet and is the larger kitchen size (I think 8") and I'd prefer one that archs up kind of high something like this... http://www.efaucets.com/MediaRich/HTML/zoom_sonic/zoom.asp?img=Elements%20of%20Design/ES1291AX.jpg

The sink doesn't have a third hole but I'd like to add a sprayer...I might have to drill a hole for it unless the faucet I find happens to have a sprayer integrated.

If I can't find a wall mount faucet I may have to make/buy some sort of mount that allows me to use a more common type of faucet.

Let me know if you have one you want to sell or know where i might get one dirt cheap.

I also go to Habitat for Humanity

see if one of these stores is close. Lots of great stuff ( at least that is what I say not sure the wife thinks the same especially after all the  Red Lobster fish photos I bought from a closed restaurant!)  :smt005

My bad, I can pick the free sink up and you can buy this one with a working faucet.   http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/app/3727499308.html


Or just do 5 seconds of leg work on Craigslist for a faucet....

I have a double stainless for a fish cleaning station. I rarely use the faucets so I disconnected them. I put an old mud-board on one side to raise the filet station, put a bucket for guts/spines in the sink and hang the hose on the side. I hooked up the faucets for use when I first acquired the sink but quickly realized that a hose with a spray nozzle was still what I prefer. It is far easier for cleaning fillets and spraying off everything.
