Outdoor shower set up

[redracer01]

Summer is fast approaching and one of the things I wish I built was an outdoor shower for my kids! But the idea passed by as I was too busy swimming with my boys and the misus. So in the excellent tradition of hindsight and if onlys. I give you my dear workmates the opportunity to create the "Gold coast special" as my son called it. 

Parts list :

2 x 20mm pvc pipes at 1 meter long each

1 x 20 mm gate valve

2 x 20 mm female couplers with one side with a male threaded end.

1 x 20mm 90 degree elbow

1 x 20mm 90 degree elbow with one end with a threaded female end.

1 x 20mm brass nipple.

1 x 20mm to 15mm brass nipple

1 x 20mm coupler with one side with a threaded female end.

Now I'm sure some of you creatives out there are thinking "I've got a better idea" by all means have at it! This is just a suggested lay out if you have a more creative approach don't let me stop you. Whats important is that we build it and enjoy it for the summer! Clip on the garden hose and enjoy!

Not as DIY but you get warm water and it comes in 3 sizes if this small one isn't big enough.

I'm a bit too soft to have a cold shower, even after a swim! 

We weren't sure whether to install an outdoor shower as part of our games room and pool project but two years on have found we use it a lot. You can see it in the photos here - https://www.workshop.com.au/t5/Outdoor/Backyard-games-room-project/td-p/93/page/3

Looks really good.
