I put a lot of thought into coming up with this one. It had to be stupidly simple, cheap and easy to make. It works quite well, hope you like it and please leave me a comment in the section below!
I’ve actually knocked up a hobo shower myself, quite a while ago now, the best thing about using a black bag is that if it’s left hanging in the sun for a while the water gets quite warm. These camping showers can be bought now and they’re very lightweight too. Bike packing is my thing and I can usually find a nice stream to sit in and clean up, in summer of course. All of these ablution type tasks need solutions, washing clothes, drying them? Going to the toilet even? Can all be problematic when you’re outdoors and on the move , stopping only to camp at night. Cooking, washing up, keeping dry, keeping warm. Preventing sunburn, map reading, all have problems to solve and many different solutions. I enjoy your tips, your vids are good too. Thank you.
Cool idea. I like the water bottle top trick. I used to do something similar when I lived and worked on the road off of my motorcycle and while out on long hikes. I would just put some water in the trash bag, tie the wings together, let it lay in the sun for a bit to warm up, tie a noose of cordage underneath the knot, hang it from a tree limb then just cut a corner with my electrician snips just enough to get a trickle of water going. The rest was technique to minimize my water usage. For starters I would wear a pair of cheap flip flops which for me are a must to keep my feet from getting muddy or stepping on sharp stuff, I would get wet, then fold the cut corner a few rolls and clip it with one of those black metal heavy duty paper clips to stop the water, put a bare minimum of shampoo in my hair and work it in then unclip the corner and rinse that out. Then wet up my rag and soap, clip the corner again and soap up. Unclip, rinse and I would also keep a water bottle with a squirt top handy just to finish rinsing all the naughty bits. Those trash bags work good for doing laundry as well. Add clothes, detergent and water. Tie it off and let it set in the sun for awhile. Massage the bag to agitate, let set for a bit more in the sun, dump the water, wring the clothes out by hand then add fresh water, repeating to rinse then wring them out again and hang from trees to dry. If you can find a cardboard box that you can line with the trash bag to make a basin out of that is even better. Fun stuff. Keep them coming and have fun.
yeh, thanks. now I don't have an excuse for coming home from the woods without showering. with all the gadgets I have learned to make and use on this channel, I no longer go camping, I go glamping. It is a blast to make these objects and use them. it is soothing to my soul. a big thanks. we need a WayPoint Survival Camping Rendevous. where everybody uses gadgets demonstrated on this channel and some of their own inventions. maybe a few workshops. it would be a hobo rendezvous. sounds like a whole lot of fun to me.
I've had a couple of solar showers from Walmart. I like them, but your idea is less expensive and more compact when empty. Thanks for another great video!
You don't have to be a hobo to appreciate this design. It can be used on the trail or in a semi-permanent camp, and it's packable; all the components together (even the stone) would weigh less than a pound. Well done, Mr. Bender. You must have a LOT of time on your hands LOL!!
Brother love your channel love the simplicity of everything you do ,I AM A HOBO AT HEART MY GRANDFATHER USED TO LOVE THE RAILWAYS riding them AND LOVE IT ,DIDNT SEE HIM MUCH LOVED LIFE ON THE ROAD MORE THAN BEING WITH HIS FAMILY DONT BLAME HIM.
I didn't know that I wanted to be a hobo until yesterday when I watched another video here 😂 I was actually just dreaming about an outdoor shower yesterday. I swear my feed somehow always reads my mind...
Thanks for sharing another practical idea James. This would be a great item for van dwellers also, to add a compact and inexpensive outdoor shower feature for "hobos on wheels" 🙂
As someone who has a van fitted for living in a better idea is to get a pressure sprayer or the battery operated sprayers like they sell for spraying weeds then you can just clamp the sprayer in the open position and hang it on the back door. There are so many creative ways to do it.
Always amazed at how often stupid simple is pure genius! That black bag will heat the water in the sun in summer too. Thanks again for these useful, functional, and inexpensive hacks.
Another great idea James. Making the cap into a "valve" is simple and efficient. A smaller version could be used as a hand washing station or kitchen aid. Thank you and GOD bless you for sharing your wonderful ideas.
I really love your videos because even if somebody is not a hobo or camping it’s a bit of getting people to think outside of commonality to be creative. This is exactly what young people should be playing with experimenting with to be able to build that better mousetrap. Learning to be creative takes some amount of guidance. I know the scouts aren’t very popular but I really think there should be more organizations that can exist with spirits in adventure and inventiveness
I knew some hobos took showers. Great job and thank you fulfilling the video request it's really ingenuitive You are always come up with something. Necessity is the mother of invention
always wondered how things like this were made! excellent guide! so simple and yet so utterly reuseable and mobile too! the other nice thing is you can take the poles too! keep thinking these up! these are great! 😊 and in an SHTF situation hobo's would be able to save folks with things like this (showering to keep clean) and having figured these out yourself increases the chance of survival by sharing them 😊
another brilliant invention by the hobo chieftain,i call my mother and her kin "tribal eldars!"as the storys she still tells me of how she survived as a child are astonishing,how my grandad who was a scots guard desert rat was shot in the back many times escaping from a panzer in the deserts of egypt after there tank broke down and buried himself in the sand with a cloth and a straw to breath through,he crawled to alexandria where he was in hospital for five years till the war ended,how women in factorys would bind there fingers back on with cobwebs after accidents ,they were so poor they would boil fish bones thrown away from the factorys ,this kept them alive,people moan when there internet is slow!its time some of us remember true values !i believe almost all your viewers are very cool people who hold these things dear!WAYPOINT ARMY!BLESS!XXX,all this information will be lost ,its heartbreaking! KEEP UP YOUR GREAT WORK,MY GIRLFRIEND WANTED TO SEE U IN THE SHOWER WITH YA WEE HAT AN STICK HA X
Lol. Thanks for the moniker and for reminding everyone in the comments section about how tough our forebears were. Too often we forget their sacrifices.
James, if I was to become a full time hobo, bushcrafter, or a pathfinder from the 1700’s, I am not bringing anything, I will just try to bring you, you make something from basically the bare minimums or nothing, and then you have the ability to be smoothing it, and eating well….you have the knowledge, ty for sharing…
Appreciate the thought in coming up with this idea. So simple and functional. And hopefully most will know that leaving the black bag in the sun for a while will warm the water for a more enjoyable shower.
I saw a very similar design but it was more effort and you couldn't turn off the water once it started. He used a garbage bag too and got 3 minutes of water. Love this hobo series. Also all your Stanley cookset hacks.
Thank you, James! This is very similar to what I said in your Hobo Knee Pads Video cømments about using an old inner tube to make a solar shower. In either case, if the black trash bag or black inner tube is left in the hot sun for a few hours, it will provide a VERY HOT SHOWER! Be careful & do not get burned! The Old preacher with the hobo Mind Set! 'Blessings1
The ability to take showers and to get cleaned can not be denied as essential to good hygiene. And this is so much cheaper than buying a commercial unit. Makes me think it might I could make the bag at home and to cut it to make a smaller version and maybe double layered. With some wax paper or brown paper and an iron it can be done.
Thanks for the tip. And also plastic bag with water in filled in it doesn't burn even if you put it on open flame. We can heat it up that way on cloudy winter days
What a genial idea. Another way, and probably somewhat simpler would be to hang the plastic bag from a branch with a rope like a pulley to adjust the proper height. That would save one making the tripod. Thanks for another great video. Looking forward for more.
Cool idea 👍 I think everyone of us Bushcrafter and survivalists/Prepper are having some garbage bags and cordage in our Rucksack and this kind of bottles are laying unfourtunatelly every way around If U have not one with U anyways but what U gave us is an inexpensive lightweight Camping shower when ever we want it. And its kind of fun to build it. Great idea...Love it👍 Greetings from Vienna ✌️
Good idea! I wouldn’t be able to lift that bag. I guess I could leave the bottle intact and just put the holes in the cap. I’m just under 5’ tall, so I wouldn’t have to hang it very high.
Actually an hour is sufficient depending on how much water you have in it. If you leave it in the sunlight too long it will become scalding hot and could cause damage to your skin.
James that is genius, you have so much knowledge to share, I feel privileged to have found your channel. I like this project a lot, and I will remember it if and when it becomes necessary. Thank you my friend. Your videos are priceless. Have a blessed week. Maranatha Nicole
Great idea. At home or in a camp, In a survival situation I would use a pump up sprayer painted black with a longer hose and shorten the nozzle to make pressurized personal shower.
@@WayPointSurvival Really? Kabar used to make ones just like it, but I guess that isn’t a unique style for back then. Still, stacked leather handles, and a good patina on a proper steel blade. Way better than all the plastic stuff nowadays.
Solar still will desalinate perfectly. It takes a while (all day or longer depending on how much fresh water you want, and the temperature/humidity of the day) but it's simple and foolproof.
I subbed. Love your energy and innovation! Keep doing you!! You remind me of the cool Cop in Dirk Gentlys Holistic Detective Agency (season 2) 😁💪 one of my favorite characters ever in any series! Bless you dude ❤
Set up early in the morning and the water should be warm by afternoon. We did something like this on FTX. We would set up a shelter and pull guard for our " Little Sister" our female clerk.
Hi I live on a tropical island and we have used a solar shower menny times and that work sometimes you need a second bag with/ for cold water it can get to hot 🔥 great video thanks James till the next one thanks
We uses the same system but witha 2 litre plactic bottle with its own screw cap. The bottle used as a water container as well but when we need a shower we just change the screw cap etc. Cowabunga mate.!
My next camping trip this month I am going to try this one! Always wanted a camp shower but never could justify purchasing one. With the black plastic bag, I bet you can get a hot shower once the sun hits it for a little while. Can't wait thanks so much for this great idea!
When I camp I go even simpler…. Fill a bucket/large container of water. Heat some up on a fire/stove if needed and add it to the bucket to the desired temperature. Get a large dipper of some sort. A large drinking cup works. Pour the water over yourself, soap and wash off, then rinse in the same way. The hotter it is outside, the cooler the water your body will tolerate. When it’s really hot, a cold bath this way feels wonderful once you get over the initial cold shock. I learned this from spending many weekends in tiny villages in the jungles in Borneo.
Thats a great idea but I'm glad you didn't demonstrate it because I don't want to go blind!!!! Lol 😆 😆 😆 😆. All kidding aside. Keep up the good work and God bless you and your family 🙏

Good job
I’ve actually knocked up a hobo shower myself, quite a while ago now, the best thing about using a black bag is that if it’s left hanging in the sun for a while the water gets quite warm. These camping showers can be bought now and they’re very lightweight too. Bike packing is my thing and I can usually find a nice stream to sit in and clean up, in summer of course.

This DIY Shower was excellent James, Loved it. I will be using this one. Thanks.
I had a very similar concept for rainwater collection. Using a tarp with a small hole in the middle and two water bottles.
God bless.
What a great idea! That black garbage bag is great for warming up the water in the sun.
Yes, it will provide quite a warm shower. Thanks for watching!
Cool idea. I like the water bottle top trick. I used to do something similar when I lived and worked on the road off of my motorcycle and while out on long hikes. I would just put some water in the trash bag, tie the wings together, let it lay in the sun for a bit to warm up, tie a noose of cordage underneath the knot, hang it from a tree limb then just cut a corner with my electrician snips just enough to get a trickle of water going. The rest was technique to minimize my water usage. For starters I would wear a pair of cheap flip flops which for me are a must to keep my feet from getting muddy or stepping on sharp stuff, I would get wet, then fold the cut corner a few rolls and clip it with one of those black metal heavy duty paper clips to stop the water, put a bare minimum of shampoo in my hair and work it in then unclip the corner and rinse that out. Then wet up my rag and soap, clip the corner again and soap up. Unclip, rinse and I would also keep a water bottle with a squirt top handy just to finish rinsing all the naughty bits. Those trash bags work good for doing laundry as well. Add clothes, detergent and water. Tie it off and let it set in the sun for awhile. Massage the bag to agitate, let set for a bit more in the sun, dump the water, wring the clothes out by hand then add fresh water, repeating to rinse then wring them out again and hang from trees to dry. If you can find a cardboard box that you can line with the trash bag to make a basin out of that is even better. Fun stuff. Keep them coming and have fun.

Oh! What a great idea! It's like making an icing bag for frosting!
Right? Thanks for watching!
Awesome shower on the cheap James. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
The black bag is great for warming the water, using the sun.
Add next to it a ladies stocking tied up to the tripod, with a bar of soap in the bottom.
Good idea!
A zip tie I was thinking may work also.... TY for sharing your gift.
Yes, it would work.
Awsome that water will get good and hot in that bag if it's out in the sun we made something like this out if body bags
Yes it will. Thanks for watching!
@@WayPointSurvival Jim I have to tell ya man all 3 series are awsome hobo scout and 19th century I'll be looping playlist this weekend thanks
Awesome! James, you've done it again. Another simple yet awesome project. Thank you, sir...
Thanks for, glad you liked it!
Another great hack and video, never disappointed when I get notified you have a new video up. Well done sir.
Thanks for watching and I'm glad that you are enjoying the channel!
Very good idea. You could try to use the cap ring to clamp the plastic bag
There's so many uses for those bags.
Thank you so much for this great idea!!!
Thanks, my friend! It pleases me that you watch my channel!
What a genial idea. Another way, and probably somewhat simpler would be to hang the plastic bag from a branch with a rope like a pulley to adjust the proper height. That would save one making the tripod. Thanks for another great video. Looking forward for more.
Yes, a pulley would definitely make it simpler.
That's just SIMPLY brilliant! thank you! I LOVE THESE VIDEOS!
Thanks for watching!
Cool idea 👍
I think everyone of us Bushcrafter and survivalists/Prepper are having some garbage bags and cordage in our Rucksack and this kind of bottles are laying unfourtunatelly every way around If U have not one with U anyways but what U gave us is an inexpensive lightweight Camping shower when ever we want it.
And its kind of fun to build it.
Great idea...Love it👍
Greetings from Vienna ✌️
Thanks so much!
Fantastic idea pal. Many thanks from Scotland. You are a good lad.
Thanks so much!
Another home run of an idea James !!!
Thank you, my friend!
Thanks love watching all your videos from a city girl
Thanks!
Great idea and thank you very much for not demoing
Lol. Thanks for watching!
nice! if you have time, you can let the sun warm it before your shower.
Yes indeed. Thanks for watching!
Good idea! I wouldn’t be able to lift that bag. I guess I could leave the bottle intact and just put the holes in the cap. I’m just under 5’ tall, so I wouldn’t have to hang it very high.
Yes. If you do use a bottle you can just squeeze it or put a small hole in the other end to let the vacuum out.
That's slicker than snot. Good job
Thanks for watching!
Waypoint survival I love your video and the homemade diy shower to set up at a campsite with private covered area to have a shower, coolest idea ever
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Good shower there James. Thanks for showing us. Take care.
Thanks for watching, my friend!
Loved it, that shower bottle cap is ingenious just twist and on/off water flow thanks for always sharing!!😁✌️💚
Thanks for watching!
Love it. Great videos.
You are gonna save a lot of butts someday with your education. Thanks for all you do.
Thanks so much!
Cool project. If you fill it in the morning and have it in direct sunlight for several hours the water should be much warmer at shower time.
Actually an hour is sufficient depending on how much water you have in it. If you leave it in the sunlight too long it will become scalding hot and could cause damage to your skin.
I like occasional cleaning in the woods
Me too, annually or semi-annually whether I need it or not :)
Lol. Me too!
Yea buddy that will work! This is very cool but simple idea. Thank You for another fantastic video. I always learn something watching your videos!
Thanks for watching!
That’s a great idea, thanks James.
Thanks for watching!
Great job james I'll keep that in the back of my mind.

Love the Kabar knife.
It's actually an old Western. Thanks for watching!
@@WayPointSurvival Really? Kabar used to make ones just like it, but I guess that isn’t a unique style for back then. Still, stacked leather handles, and a good patina on a proper steel blade. Way better than all the plastic stuff nowadays.
I love all of your videos. I guess the only one I am waiting for is one about a compact, portable desalination kit. That would be so cool
That would be interesting. I don't live anywhere near saltwater so I would have to make some before I could do a video like that.
Solar still will desalinate perfectly. It takes a while (all day or longer depending on how much fresh water you want, and the temperature/humidity of the day) but it's simple and foolproof.
