We’ve been living off grid in our tent for a few months now and as the summer weather heats up, we’re increasingly in need of better shower facilities. We’ve tried a few camping shower solutions but none were really up to the task so we’ve been making do with a bucket of water and an old chair. Luxury.
In this episode we scavenge and reclaim a bunch of materials from our scrap pile and from other places around the property to build a rustic outdoor shower. Follow along to see what happens…

Enjoy all of your videos!
Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a very, very Happy New Year 🇨🇦🎄🥂
Merry Christmas to you both love your videos
Use what you got buy what you need dream what you want
So much fun! I love, love, love when people make use of scrap to make what they need, and there's really no need to explain, you're obviously used to putting your "little grey cells" to work!
I know what you do are doing with that old shower chair and the one in the tree you too was pretending the Flashdance scene LOL
The birds singing 👏👏👏👏. Shower is going to be great.
Kylie & Guy Merry Christmas to you both and all your families. That is an awesome outdoor shower set up.
I love outdoor showers. Well done ! All the best
Fabulous! Waste not want not. The term 'Shower Power' was never so aptly used😁💜.
Hello Kylie and Guy, Thank you again for the videos and hard work. I am following a french man that is renovating an old house for several years now and is also a craftman ( he has a channel called Bichon TV). Last episode he uploaded he talked about how impact tools were really bad if you are seeking for strengh. Basically impacting a screw this fast into the wood damages the metal and the wood and they wont "fuse" as stong. the screw are more fragile, can break easily and support way less weight. For a temporary solution I think there is no problem, but it may be interesting to seek more info before using those kind of tools for the house renovation. I'm sorry I don't have any real scientific article as it is not my area of expertise. Have a great week and christmas ! Looking forward to follow your journey 🙂
Nice one! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
Boa Tarde! Congrats on the Reduce, Reuse and Recycle Project 👍 May the new year shower you both with plenty of health and joy in Portugal 💖

Birds are happy
The birds are saying "what are they doing looks like a bird bath"
Really loving these catch up episodes. Please keep them coming. 😊
Congrats! Happy Scrubbing! 🤗
I really enjoy your channel. It’s great to see all of these older videos!
And the Oscar for the category of "Sustainable building and double entendres" goes to……… Kylie and Guy!!!! Yaaay. Great stuff. I'm glad you're reposting your old videos. I'd seen them all before the previous channel closed, but they are all worth watching again. Happy Christmas, folks.
A shelf for your impact driver if you need to make repairs whilst taking a shower…brilliant! I love it and your sense of humor, Guy.
Make. Do. Grow. Reuse!
❣️I agree – reuse, recycle to help our environment. 💕 Both of you are doing a GREAT job👍😁👍 Brush off negative comments. I love your location and everything you're doing to your beautiful property 💗🌟
Kylie & guy well done you two please keep them coming it’s a pleasure to watch merry Christmas and a happy new year.
I love how resourceful the both of you are. Good job!
Sorting the wood is like alphabetical order. Youll know where to find what youre looking for 👌
That was great Kylie and Guy. I really enjoy watching your stuff. Keep going.From New Zealand.
so bright loud birds 😊
ahaha Guy naked
"If you buy a house full of crap you have to get rid of it".
I can 100% relate to that! 😂😂😂
Great outdoor shower
Who gives a fig about what anyone thinks about what YOU do with YOUR stuff! Good on you for RE-USING things that would have just gone to a dump somewhere! 🙂 You're recycling your stuff, so THAT, my friends, is a GOOD thing! 🙂
I completely understand your OCD regarding the wood, I am the same. It is so much easier to have things organized. Congrats on the shower room, well done. Love your videos and watching your progress.
7:20 a hose that probably was used to water the farm by hand (like the smaller hoses for a garden). It would be hooked to a water pump (electric or probably petrol or diesel)
Hi,
I can't stop laughing every time you see "Temporary." 🤣 Everything takes so much more time than in the mind.
Keep on going 👋♥️🇳🇱
Once again great job ! Merry Christmas to you both.
You two are brilliant and adorable!
No criticism but just wondering when some new ie. recently filmed updates are on the way?
beautiful outdoor shower and man
This is awesome! Nothing better than being baked under the sky 👏🏻👏🏻
🎄🌟👍🍀💐 35:31 😕
You could really do with a nail gun, would have been so much quicker. Great videos love the content, can’t wait for the next one
That looks luxurious indeed! We are still doing the dip and pour from a bucket kind of shower – I'm jealous!
