First time build. I'll add a weather seal to wood. One bit of advice I need is what weather resistant cutting board should I mount?

Any other advice on modifications are welcome

What we did at the hunting camp was get a plastic/fiberglass cutting board and epoxy it to the counter

Eletrical outlet(s) mounted on the back wall.

Wire it for an extension cord to connect to the back to supply power.

I would need a bigger bucket. Maybe not bigger, but definitely taller, looks like the draining water would splash your legs.

Mrs kenna is the bottle opener but good idea and I'll do it.

I have some acrylic/plexiglass to mount with epoxy that should hold up on weather but might take too much of a beating

1- I agree on the bucket size, maybe even divert it left.
2- I'd screw down the board as opposed to epoxy, if you catch fish, it'll need changing.
3- What are those hand rail things for?

That's a nice project, looks good. The casters might be a little small

Use the bloody in your bucket on your plants. They love the iron. See if you can find a marble or granite remnant.

Looks great.

Maybe some hooks for knives and a sharpener.

Handrails were something I already had made in the shed. No practical use except for moving and hanging towels

Next time don't build a fish cleaning station outside your bedroom window! Put that shite against your neighbor's fence.

Nice station.

Must be some heavy towels. Thought they might be hand holds for the impaired, but then the casters threw me off.
Lather that in water sealant and commence fish cleaning.

Get rid of the bucket and run a hose out to the yard to drain.

Yeah the bucket seems like a pain in the arse all around. I would put a hose connection and run a hose out to the yard when in use.
But then again, I don't see much use for a sink. I just throw my fish in a bucket or bowl of ice, then I rinse them inside before I vacuum seal them.
