Omg the shock cord in the pvc ... genius! Other folks make stuff but slim thinks out of the box and makes it happen he’s humble,handsome and creative thank you ,sir
I think that I'd watch a video of Slim changing flashlight batteries. I bet he would show me a more efficient way of doing it than I am now. Entertaining educational content. Keep 'em coming Slim.
You're so freaking brilliant! Especially love that you demonstrated the shower! You've gone above and beyond TH-cam how-to videos! And, made us laugh! Love ya Slim!
Drinking my tea, randomly watching van/camper vids when this one popped up. I need to install a shower in the van ham camper so I leaned in to LEARN, and sip... Not the best move while watching his shower scene! That’s right, tea all over my iPad screen! 🤭😲😏😂🤣😂
Seeing the grey water was something you dont really think about till you had it in the clear, collapsible container. Makes you think of where it goes and what it might do... The mug in front if the shot made me laugh...and laugh again..!
Slim you are a man who knows how to get things done your ingenuity is amazing. I never get bored with anything you do. Been a subscriber since the beginning and all this time my friend i have enjoyed the journey. I love it keep it coming buddy. One question i have to know though is what was your profession because i dont see you sitting in an office for 30 yrs lol it doesnt fit you. If its not to invasive would you think about answering that or maybe perhaps you can do a Q and A video. Either way my friend thank you.
I have to agree with you, Slim is fantastic at executing things that he wants when it comes to comfortability when it comes to his living conditions when it comes to travelling, such a smart way of doing things.
You could offer a lottery of sorts or a fund-raiser for charity (e.g. The Match:...raised $20 million US last weekend) - Guess Slim's past profession (for a fee to be considered for a to-be-determined grand prize or to add to a charity pot)! Cheers, Potatoeheads!
Brilliant Slim! You are making setting up your little off road / off grid camper, a lot of fun. Not to mention there is much more self satisfaction in what you are building then some guy that spends a few hundred grand for a fancy self contained rig! Please keep the videos coming. They check all the boxes, educational, inspirational, and just flat out entertaining. Thank you!
Way to go brother. Im a Gypsy descendant. This is born from the same Spirit. Nice job. Any inconvenience is compensated by the sheer freedom of not being anchored to a single piece of property for the length of a mortgage. Freedom always makes a hot shower seem like a luxury.
Slim, you are a nice guy who attracts the nicest, kindest subscribers and it is heart-warming to scroll through the comments, smiling as I read..No huge surprise to see 112k subscribers.. I’m lucky I found you.
I've said it before "You and McGeyvor could be best buds"! You always come with great little cross-use gadgets in all of your projects. You are an inspiration when it comes to DIY projects. thanks!
leave the curtain rings on shower curtain and just slide them on the bar when installing the folding bar...most will not need moving b4 installing each ime
That is exactly what I was going to suggest! Just leave the rings on, and slip them on the rod before setting it into the holder. Great minds think alike! :)
you consistently amaze me with this innovation and creativity to camp like a gentleman when most would say "i dont have room, i cant" and be a nasty ass without showering or waste time using a public shower
Your level of ingenuity and humor is literally off the charts. I would have spilled my coffee, if I had ahold of the cup, when your coffee cup came up. I don’t laugh out loud, but couldn’t help it on that shot! I think the years with the old A frame, and moving into the new unit has unleashed a whole new level of slim.💪
@@SlimPotatohead Or, if you still want to stash it, just get a few ring type ones and leave them on the curtain. Hold them together with a carabiner and you can slide them all on before you clip the rods into place. You could even mark one or two of the rings so you know between which ones you need to put your cord/clip. Great idea, though! I'm definitely taking some notes for the bus build I'm working on.
The shower hooks are definitely the weak part of the concept. What I may try are velcro straps on the curtains that are wide enough to pass over the pipe elbows of the shower rod. They would stay on the back curtain and go over the rod in seconds. But I think I'd still keep the front curtain separate. Should cut set-up time in half. Thanks! SP
@@SlimPotatohead I'm planning something *very* similar for "the van in my head" (One day!!!) Raised toilet (you sit down!) With a slide out tray underneath. Submersible pump clipped to the side for waste water (no outside drain?) Similar shower curtain to yours. Your pump/ shower head is great, I'll be stealing that pump! I was along similar lines with the heater as well, 12v fishtank heater. As you say, 5-10 litres @42° is fine, why over heat water to add cold?
It is truly a blessed thing to have a creative mind and talents. One aspect of love is to share knowledge. The Dalai Lama says true compassion is caring for others, especially strangers. Thank you.
Slim, leave the hook rings on the curtain and slide them on the rod . Snapping those rings are a pain . Nice job and always influential and inspiring. Thanks
I would find (or sew) a shower curtain with loops which I can slide directly over the shower rods. There are window curtains with those loops that don't need any clips but I'm not sure if they make shower curtains like that.
I can't help but think this video is going to help many people for years to come..Slim would make a good Boy Scout Leader. Teach kids how to save space and be very much like a handyman..
Genius. Thank you so much. I now have you prototype as a guide for my bus. Seriously, now I know I can do it simply and for not so much money. 🇨🇦👏🏽🚌👏🏽🇨🇦
Omgomgomg! I've been stuck trying to design a shower for my 16' trailer. I wasn't happy with holding tanks and the space I have is about 48"x30" including a composting toilet. I woke the household with a gleeful squeal when you showed your drain solution. Thank you thank you thank you!!!! I also will be looking for the power washer set now, too. P.S. I absolutely love your mug!
Great job, lots of imagination. Very innovative on your mods, I too agree on the need for a shower. You just proved you can take an excellent shower with 1 gallon of water, tell people I shower with 1 gallon or less and they just roll their eyes. Great job , great video SLim.
I'd use 3.5-inch carabiner clips, the type I use on the ends of my mountain climbing rope, for the curtains, Slim. The bonus is they're detachable and reusable for a thousand different uses and because they're made of aluminum for light weight, they don't conduct electricity so you can use them confidently to clip electrical lines in and around the trailer too. And to store several of them, you can clip them into a chain which you can use to extend the suspension of your overbed cargo net.
this was one of the most amazing vlogs i have seen till the end after a very long time. brilliant use of space. I would also like my guy foresty try this thing out. he has also made a brilliant use of space in his tiny van.
Slim, I have been a subscriber to your channel for almost 2 years and I have loved almost every video you have produced. THIS ONE IS GREAT! I have been a full timer for almost 18 years and have had three class "A" 40' diesel rigs in that time. I do not need most of your ideas but THEY ARE GREAT, even though I do not need them MANY MANY of your viewers can get GREAT ideas from you. GREAT JOB SLIM!!!!
That was awesome, Slim! We use a similar set up at our cabin...and depending on the weather we can use it outside as well. When we are there in warmer weather, I leave one of those black shower bags on the roof of the cabin and let the water heat up and then shower when it's ready with the hose hanging off the roof. We are miles from civilization, so there is no risk of looky loos! Just wondering if using fabric type shower curtains would be easier in your setup.They fold up smaller than the plastic and you might be able to leave them attached to the curtain rod, and not have to reattach them at all. Just an idea! Take care! From BC-Sue
Love this because its totally brilliant due to its 2 in 1 approach to gaining 2 different uses of one small space! After watching video after video of van camper builds with so many of them that don't even have a shower because they used up too much space with cabinets,etc. I am inspired by how you have a shower under a seat, that when done showering, you tuck it all away and sit and have coffee in that very same space!
Hey tater head, I think this comment reaches you on a first time basis after watching and following for at least 2 yrs. I cannot remember commenting but if not here is the first LOL I enjoy your unique approach to your tasks at hand and appreciate your seeming seamless solutions. Glad to see you enjoying your new digs and look forward to future videos......STA
Try using a fabric shower curtain it dries quickly and folds easier than the plastic. If you do use plastic. Use dollar store liner. Not as thick but it works and easier to store. Sew a pocket on the shower curtain (can be done by hand) put rod through. No clips. Disassemble three sides and fold/roll curtain. You can sew a plastic curtain too.
Great use of space and materials. Especially recycling what resource is already there. Question: On a camper with an outside shower, like mine, its OK to just let it go outside. So what’s the difference in having to capture the water form an inside shower? Keep these up. Looking forward to seeing you back in the states.
Good question. I do NOT dump shower water in soils or areas with biologically sensitive ground. The sudsing agents in ALL soaps (yes even biodegradable ones) have a big effect to the little critters that live there. Thanks! SP
@@SlimPotatohead you can get environmentally friendly soap. If you were staying in the same place several days or over a week, I'd agree. And some soap, esp laundry soap is not good. Im glad your a proponent to caring for the earth. More people should be this way.
The skin cells, etc, washed off your body can attract insects and/or mice to the smell. In a camping area, you may not want flies, etc. attracted to the underside of your camper - and nearby campers don't want that, either.
@Cherrie McKinstry, don't be fooled by the "environmentally friendly" slogan. The issue is the sudsing ingredient. Insects and other important creatures breath through their skin. Sudsing agents drown them where water normally is just repelled. SP
Watching your videos and how you make your camper showers is just amazing. You give me so many good ideas for my camper. And who cares how long it takes to set up because you have a shower and at the end of the day that's the greatest feeling is going to bed after a nice warm shower. keep up the great work.
You need a larger seat cushion, The old one is just too short and when sitting on it your legs will rest against the area not covered by the cushion and cause numbness .
No need for a conventional toilet. Lived 5-years in a van without one. Use a pee bottle and a plastic shopping bag in a bucket + some dirt. However eating the correct foods one can stay "regular" and plan for brown stuff with ease.
Well Slim, I am so glad that you posted this video, on my new cargo trailer conversion the shower issue has another solution, conventional shower pans and framing the enclosure was one of my main hold ups. Never in a thousand years would I have thought of a laundry tub. Also the hot water idea has me reconsidering a hot water heater. Thanks, Richard.
I have a small rv with a shower and yet I watched this.. You're so entertaining and this was well thought out and clearly explained. I really enjoyed it! Thank you. If you put a pvc pipe in the green tote cut to fit so that it stays in the container and is just long enough to stay upright, you can run your pump hose down into the green tote and ditch the dishpan. It will keep the hose from curling up in the tote..
I'm getting me an eggshell camper, now. STELLAR info...the details made it SO much fun to watch. Well done! LOVE the laundry list of answers to "most asked questions". Happy traveling!
One of my campers had a small bathroom with the drain in the floor that drained straight to the ground. A previous owner removed the tanks. So i would heat water and place it in a 5 gallon bucket and use a plastic drink cup to pour it over myself. Worked beautifully.
Slim!!!! Brilliant!!!! I truly love seeing someone else being so resourceful and make things work! I do it with my mini camper and love doing it! Just another reason I enjoy your channel SO MUCH!!!!
I have no idea, why I keep watching this. But I can't stop watching. Like, Mr Rogers meet This old Camper. It is really creative.
Omg the shock cord in the pvc ... genius! Other folks make stuff but slim thinks out of the box and makes it happen he’s humble,handsome and creative thank you ,sir
I think that I'd watch a video of Slim changing flashlight batteries. I bet he would show me a more efficient way of doing it than I am now. Entertaining educational content. Keep 'em coming Slim.
Hahahaha. I thought a similar thing with changing a tire. He’s got the gift of the gab.
Truth +Mr. Zip
I have seen the video more than once and I just got to give you so much credit for your ingenious idea 💡 ❤
This whole video was very clever. Mug position was hilarious and creative.
Mugging for the camera was never more apt.
Maybe he showered in a thong just in case!

@@Elizabeth-rq1vi he definitely does some of the things he do is pretty amazing things thatll never cross my mind.

Probably wouldn't fold to go into the tent bag if the rings were on

Try carabina clips for the curtain.

That's a thought. Thanks Roger! SP

Instead of the velcro. Use zipties amd leave um loose
You are the genius of all things trailer improvement. I have been watching your DIY journeys since your humble A-fram beginnings.
Slim, I would have given it 100 likes if I could
Me too
It is truly a blessed thing to have a creative mind and talents. One aspect of love is to share knowledge. The Dalai Lama says true compassion is caring for others, especially strangers. Thank you.
Brings me such joy when I see a new video from you, such feeling of bliss when I sit down and watch them. Please don't ever stop 😅
You are amazing! Your genius and expertise gives you all the comforts that others pay thousands of $$$$ for. Thank you for sharing.
Love the humor about the coffee cup. Love watching your video. You are inspirational
I like this pump system much better and I always love the comic relief!
Slim, leave the hook
rings on the curtain and slide them on the rod . Snapping those rings are a pain . Nice job and always influential and inspiring. Thanks
Won't work, because of the configuration of the rods
I would find (or sew) a shower curtain with loops which I can slide directly over the shower rods. There are window curtains with those loops that don't need any clips but I'm not sure if they make shower curtains like that.
Alleykatukr maybe it would ... I’m not sure .. just a suggestion
Imjussaiyanbro _ and they are bigger than the elbows. They could be slid on before the rods are secured in the “shelf” holes.
@@MonoBrawI there are shower curtains that are nylon fabric too which can be more comfortable than clear plastic.
I busted out when you stood behind the cup..! And ingenious setup
When your ready to grow food in the camper...Ill send you a light!
Love your channel.

Wow, a very crude, but productive shower. Gr8 DIY skills help 2 max out the the scampi trailer, & yet keeps it economical. Thx 4 sharing on Utube.
The part with the nude mug was user funny that’s for the great laugh
You are the definition of Necessity Is The Mother Of Invention, great job !!
When we travelled with a eurovan I kept 2 milk jugs in the engine compartment full of water. Always had lots of hot water at no cost!
sooooo clever!
Amazing how you can miniaturise your living space with a little ingenuity! Well done sir !
I'd use 3.5-inch carabiner clips, the type I use on the ends of my mountain climbing rope, for the curtains, Slim. The bonus is they're detachable and reusable for a thousand different uses and because they're made of aluminum for light weight, they don't conduct electricity so you can use them confidently to clip electrical lines in and around the trailer too. And to store several of them, you can clip them into a chain which you can use to extend the suspension of your overbed cargo net.
Aluminum and electricity is a bad match up! Aluminum will conduct electricity.
Aluminum is metal and does conduct electricity. They are non-magnetic, but not non-conductive.
You really have it going on now. I live it. Your mind is awesome. Take care and be safe
U convinced me that I want the same trailer.
Great job so far
So may people living in a van should watch this. It’s a great fix for a difficult issue during Covid times.
That was in genius, and it looks damn good! Great job!
That shower is genius. Thinking of making a "much cruder" version using the stationary tub and pressure washer combo. Thanks for the inspiration.
Genius. Resourceful. Also the model cup was funny. Now go get a hair cut 😂 great video

Each to their own, a man could wash in a pan of water more easily and in less time. But showers are fun.
I absolutely love the cup! It made my day. Thank you again for sharing.
Great job! But now I want to know the 'toileting procedure'. No need to show any skin.... ;)
No need for a conventional toilet. Lived 5-years in a van without one. Use a pee bottle and a plastic shopping bag in a bucket + some dirt. However eating the correct foods one can stay "regular" and plan for brown stuff with ease.
That is the coolest shower I've ever seen. I have nearly all the supplies to make one. Thank you so much!!
I love the sexy show- now where is toilet
Outside.
Yes I wondering that too , I rather have a toilet for the middle of the night than a shower , I can always shower anywhere its available 😅
He has a cartridge toilet stored under the bed.
So is toilet really under the bed?
@@MelindaMc Apparently! Actually not an uncommon thing with RV's.
Always a joy to watch what ideas will hatch from your creative mind. And best of all your great sense of humor
so where is the toilet which is more important to me
That’s brilliant to keep track of my kids while camping and in the days of covid. Very cool!!
I love that your space is so versatile.

One of my campers had a small bathroom with the drain in the floor that drained straight to the ground. A previous owner removed the tanks. So i would heat water and place it in a 5 gallon bucket and use a plastic drink cup to pour it over myself. Worked beautifully.
Slim!!!! Brilliant!!!! I truly love seeing someone else being so resourceful and make things work! I do it with my mini camper and love doing it! Just another reason I enjoy your channel SO MUCH!!!!
