Bath cabinet shelf
My Flagstaff came with a piece of paneling screwed to the floor covering the water lines in the cabinet under the bathroom sink. This left little room for storage.
I boxed in the water lines and added a shelf. A few bucks, a few hours of work and a coat of stain later I have a lot more storage!

Nice job!
I doubt I would have put that much effort into a bathroom cabinet though!

freezing water lines
I'd be worried that the warm air in the bathroom wouldn't be circulating around those waterlines and freezing could occur.
Your work is wonderful and quite practical.
I was thinking that the shelf over the waterlines could be made of grill material to allow for air flow.
Remember I'm in Alberta and our last bit of snow finally melted last weekend! MAY! We have minus forty degree temperatures. If you are in Florida I guess my caution doesn't apply!
The silly sheet of paneling seems cheap and ugly -

I am in Minnesota so I am very aware of freezing! You are right, there will be little if any air getting to the water lines but we do little to no camping in the spring or late fall and I always have the antifreeze in before it gets cold enough to worry about. We have had a very late spring and haven't even had it out yet. If you are cold weather campers leaving the lines a bit more exposed may be beneficial but from the right of the cabinet they run along the outside wall under the tub then along another outside wall to the kitchen so I'm not sure it would make much difference in this model.
