No not all trays are fitted on legs, most of the lighter acrylic trays are but not a stone resin tray. I normally build a frame for them to sit on.
Issues with shower wastes are quite common which is why I fit the tray so the waste is at the front and accessible

You're right it's a stone resin one. Instructions say don't use anything but cement but the floor's now solid so I'm very tempted to pinkgrip and silicone it

I'd just convinced myself I wasn't going to build up a frame, due to it making the fall too steep when joining the bath wastage 1.5m away - back to google

I would put it on a frame so I could get to the waste if necessary. Our sink feeds into the bath waste, that as not been a problem

Cheers.I was counting on it being a top access trap but suppose that doesn’t help if it springs a leak

Yes, you need access to the trap and waste surely. Mine is raised so you van get access to the trap but it still needed a cut out of the chipboard floor locally to clear the bottom of the trap.

New shed up last week, wired to my taste yesterday and started moving in today. Still need to reattach my outside ramp so I can bring the Tracer back home

I've not posted on here for a while but, when you've got something you think is worthy of a share you take to social media and share the hell out of it.
Today has been one of many days of tinkering over the last few weeks and apart from a couple of finishing touches the end is in sight.
It won't be to everyone's taste, but I'm happy with what I've done and love the results.
So hear it is, 3 weeks worth of working in the garage after work and weekends, before and after

No mate, I recently treated myself to a compressor for the garage, i bought a cheap gun off eBay, practiced on a few old panels I'd got laying, then got stuck in to the SV.
