I have been beating the bushes trying to find an alternative to spending $$$ on the Aussie version of this handy shower tent. Below is a parts list issued by the the innovator. He charges a reasonable fee for his building plan ~$12. Parts for this would be ~$75? The two brackets he mentions welding would be the hiccup to producing this very light weight drop down enclosure using the Plano or some other type of receiver pack.

Product QTY Description
1 Plano Rifle case 1 Case for the shower
2 1" x 3" U channel 1 Left and Right Support arm
3 1" x 1" U channel 1 Rear Support arm
4 Nylon Ripstop 5 Shower Material
5 Aluminum Rod 5 Curtain Weights
6 Nylon Webbing 1 straps for curtain
7 1" flat bar x 3' 1 mounting bracket
8 2" flat bar x 1.5' 1 mounting bracket

Where did you source the U channel?

Is there a link to the plans?

I have not started on a build yet, but it is definitely in my future. Just happened upon it last night. The link would be the web address listed on the video. Machine or metal fabrication shop would be a good start. When I start looking I could post or send message.
I would like to emulate a “road shower” type water delivery setup using a pressurized aluminum or pvc type vessel. Mount it in conjunction with the shower curtain, on the driver’s side header, like the side awning on the passenger side. Carry the shower combo on the exterior as opposed to packing it in the interior.

Here's the link to detailed plans and parts list https://www.shawneeh...hower-enclosure

I like the idea of using this as a privacy curtain for the crapper as well :-)

That's a pretty nice design!   Looks like the plans are on sale right now for $10 (minus a penny).

My wish would be if someone would take up doing the nylon sewing job. The rest looks easy!

Yeah, ditto. One very quick thought was grommets & carabiners? Maybe I can sweet talk my daughter-in-law

I’m a good with a lot of materials but when it comes to needle and thread I have 10 thimbles!
