Folding Shower for Small Spaces

Engineer Guy - October 28, 2011 Reply

My own mentally-Bookmarked design for a future Trailer was to nab a used Shower Pan from the local Building Recycling joint. Recess it to be flush with the Trailer Frame/Floor. Modify Frame as necessary. When not in use, a piece of Cabinet-grade Plywood would set in – on small Blocks, if necessary – to create flush Floor space. A Porta Potty, or Sawdust ‘Bucket’, could optionally sit there otherwise.

Bend some used Conduit into a square-corner ‘U’ for the Shower Curtain Rail. Install opaque Curtain, if desired, to use the Shower Curtain outside, too. Mount Rail into 2 – 45 degree Wall-mount Flag Holders, as used outside Homes. These hold the Curtain Rail by friction fit, allowing Rail removal/storage as req’d. Or, allow the Shower Rail to hinge down on a pinned arrangement. The Shower Rail end not on the Wall could be held up by Cord and a Hook.

Plumb like any other Trailer Shower. Use a Propane Demand Water Heater. Alternately, use a ~10 Gallon Electric Heater to allow use on Grid Power. Optionally Solar heat Water in 10 Gallon Heater by circulating w/a low Voltage Pump through 1 Rooftop Solar Panel.

Use +12 Volt Trailer ‘Demand’ Pump [‘Shurflo’] for Water pressure. As always, reusing components when possible would lower Project cost.

Prosecutor says two attackers stabbed NMSU student to death | Lubbock Online

ALBUQUERQUE {AP} Crime scene evidence suggests New Mexico State University student Carly Martinez struggled with two men before she was murdered, prosecutors told jurors at the trial of Jason Desnoyers. The 18-year-old student was driven to a remote Las Cruces mesa , was stabbed more than a dozen times in the head, chest, abdomen, back, thighs and buttocks, and her body was "left to rot" in the desert, District Attorney Susana Martinez said Tuesday. Two weapons were used, a single-edged knife and another instrument, said prosecutor Martinez , no relation to the victim. "Two weapons, two men," she said. Desnoyers, 24, is charged with first-degree murder, conspiracy, tampering with evidence and criminal solicitation. Co- defendant Jesse Avalos , 26, is to be tried separately in September on similar charges. Defense attorney Gary Mitchell contends there was only one weapon. He said Avalos wore a belt with a knife, screwdriver and other tools the night Carly Martin...
