Looks awesome, but the shower looks like a weed sprayer to me, probably easy to find a big capacity one and stick a shower head on it. They recon the Hydro shower gets 5 minutes out of it. I like the portability.
While I can see the appeal of the engine mounted showers I dont like the idea of taking a shower close to the vehicle. Well I dont mind but the girls do. It it worth getting one to just produce hot water or just heat water over a fire/stove?

Well I am not an expert web wheeling rock god, only a camping/4x4 enthusiast. After some searching I could not find one other shower like this on Australian web sites, other than those suggesting this American one.

I took my 2 year boy didn't see much at all which was a shame cause there seemed alot of things that needed more than a passing glance going by myself next year, but the efs chicks did catch my eye though
Something like that would be fairly easy to make. Just get a fairly strong plastic drum & then pressurise it with your air compressor. about 10 psi would do the trick. You could also pressurise it with a high flow push bike pump. I do it all the time when filling diffs with oil & its the same principle, the oil containers take a fair bit of pressure before the lid pops off. A good quality 20lt drum would do it. A steel drum you could nearly pressure wash your truck with it
Well done Antz for posting something useful to a reasonable question without the smartarse comments Some others could learn there is a time & a place for that & this thread wasnt it.

That's what I have. A 40L black container. In summer I leave it out for a few hours in the sun and it gets a bit armer or fill it with some heated water. The lid has a hole cut in it which I put a valve from a bike tube through. Then i just pressurise it with a small air compresoor. Works great
Onya Bruce, recycled clacker residue contaminated water I'd imagine after all your mates had a shower and de-crustified themselves after numerous beer shits they'd all end up with some bizzare E-Coli stomach infection, except for the first one to shower
I have a home made unit that we have copied and sold to a few friends, it uses a Alloy coiled section placed over a gas burner, hooked to a submersible pump(like the $20 unit above) ecept we use a slightly better version, I take a picture of the complete unit and post.
As for the dollars I will check current cost of making unit and let you know.
Most of it (hoses, pump, gas burner, etc...) people will already have, just need the Alloy coil unit.
