Introduction: Luxurious Outdoor Shower - Part 4 [Door & Plumbing]

About: Hello there! Thanks for stopping by! I'm Elias and I'm addicted to Making, Building and Creating any kind of things, producing free DIY videos and showing you How it's done, step by step! Here you can see some…

This is the 4th and the last part of the Luxurious Outdoor Shower and in this instructable you'll see: How I made the "Door" and How I installed the "Plumbing".

Step 1:

With a try square align the timbers in the corners. Also you can take a tape measure and check the length from the left side to be equal to the right side.

Step 2:

Then I placed the next timber, hit it with a rubber mallet and nailed its edges.

Step 3:

Repeated the same thing until the end.

Step 4:

I placed a piece of wood, aligned it, marked it on each end and then cut it from both sides.

Step 5:

With the same procedure, I placed 2 more pieces at the other corner too.

Step 6:

Then I put a screw every 10cm on the pcs placed up and down and every 20cm on the pcs placed corner to corner.

Step 7:

Because, I didn’t have a long enough post, I put a short one at the bottom and another one at the upper part for the door to stop.

Step 8:

I placed the door using three hinges.

Step 9:

Placed one latch on the outside and one on the inside.

Step 10:

Then I painted the whole construction with teak oil.

Step 11:

Now for the plumping, after I took the measurements, I cut all the pcs and put them together to see if everything fits right.

Step 12:

Then I started to connect the pcs one by one.

Step 13:

I put the water ball valve to the vise, then I took the brass part which connect the water ball valve with the copper tube and put the thread seal tape around it.

Step 14:

I placed the copper tube cutter on the copper tube and I started to turn it around the copper tube until it was cut.

Step 15:

Smooth the edges from inside and outside.

Step 16:

Brushed the point I sanded with the solder paste for a Fast, Clean and Sure solder joint.

Step 17:

Heat around the copper tube and then placed the solder without letting it touch the blowtorch.

Step 18:

I painted it matt black for a more beautiful appearance.

Step 19:

... and the water ball valves, in order to recognize hot and cold.

Step 20:

I made two holes for the hot and the cold water to pass into the shower.

Step 21:

I placed plastic clips for an easier and faster way.

Step 22:

With a plastic pipe cutter I cut the pipes in the right dimensions.

Step 23:

I also placed a stainless steel flexible shower hose, the wall mount, the handheld and finally the showerhead!

Step 24:

Oh yeah it’s ready for a try!

Step 25:
