I finally got the drain pan for the washer installed today. Took a few hours, working alone, but it's done. Hardest part was making an opening in the dust panel under the dresser to route the drain line. Would have been easier if I'd remembered to bring my Dremel tool kit along. Had to use a small hand saw and a hole saw on the drill to make it, so it ain't pretty. Once that was done, the rest was easy. I drilled a hole through the floor under the dresser that came out in the hydraulic/battery compartment and tied the drain line extension to the front wall frame with cable ties. I didn't want to run the drain all the way down the pipe chase in the basement since that would have been a PITA. This cabinet is open at the bottom and a lot closer.
In the last photo, you see the FlowSafe hoses I was going to install, but I just could not get one of them to stop leaking...badly. So I reinstalled the original rubber hoses and all is good. Ran a rinse cycle on the machine to make sure the repair I did earlier was good. No leaks! Put the closet back in order and had a cold one.
