    You may connect the two tubs to one trap using a continuous waste,(see image). As for the water, simply swap your present angle stops for 1/2X1/4X1/4" angle stops,(see image) and pipe both supplies from there. To change out the stops, shut the water off and remove the old stops. Leave the 1/2" compression nut and ferrule and install the new angle stops using the old nuts. Simple, Huh? Good luck, Tom
