    Cool idea, it blends well with the rest of your house.
    If the top 2x4s were an inch or two shorter you could top the 4x4s with those solar caps which would be nice for nighttime and would reduce the amount of water going in the end grain of the 4x4s.

    For the "floor" of the shower, you mentioned pavers. I know I've seen some pre-built wood bath mat kinda things that basically look like fancy pallets. That would kinda keep your feet up out of potentially puddling water and might be a little more comfortable as well.

    The cross brace on the door is backwards. Bottom should be on the hinge side. If I could make a suggestion, recess the brace into the door and tin the inside too.
    You did a great job really looks good.

    • @Kordare
      @Kordare  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! Idk in my opinion the way I did the brace will help to keep the far end from sagging but really either way should work almost the same.

    Thorough, and concisely thought out as always, nice build, I like the wood pallet idea to get your feet off the stones or pavers, but the wood pallet idea would be nice to help drain soapy water/dirt/etc and leave you with a clean surface still 👍🏻

    As a woman i would have put a little bench in there because you need somewhere to put your foot when you shave. ;) But otherwise it's great! Also the cross brace is backwards I think on the door. But i just realized this video is a year old so you probably know that lol.

    • @Kordare
      @Kordare  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you! Since I attached the brace on the outside using screws, it doesn't make much difference because the screws are taking all the force in shear. If it was internal to the box it would definitely need to go the other direction.

    The diagonal strut on the door is positioned exactly wrong. It needs to run from the outside at the top to the inside at the bottom so that it reduces the pressure. Currently it is doing exactly the opposite.

    • @Kordare
      @Kordare  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree if it was internal to the boxed structure. Since it's on the outside. The screws are taking all the force so it is in turn adding rigidity to the structure. All in all it does basically nothing once the metal is attached.
