Shower Tray

[Johnnygil]

Any one know of someone who is able to supply, manufacture an unusual size shower tray not a domestic size. Or what is the best method to make one.

Thanks

make one yourself ...........

Fibreglass resin & a gel coat.
If you are not to sure then your local boat builder will make one for a price.

We made ours in the heads from 15mm marine ply, glassed over. Excavation is via a domestic bath outlet, through a Jabsco in line filter to a Par electric pump. It has worked well for 12 years.

A standard shower curtain protects the heads from water and dries very quickly over the boom..

The shower is a garden pressure appliance. Surprisingly, with a hand held 'rose' you get a very good shower from a gallon of water, kettle heated.

In Summer, you can carry the shower out on deck for a clean-up al fresco.

If you go down that route - CFS will mail order (from the Internet) all the glassing supplies you need + offer helpful advice and guidance.

G'day John,

Building your own is relatively simple DIY project, however, as you need some tools and consumables that you may never use again; I would recommend you get a price from at least 3 fibreglassers, not all in the marine industry. Then cost the materials and tools required to the project yourself.

I suspect you will find it cheaper to get it made as this is a small item and you will end up with some material left over; you may never use it, resin has a limited shelf life, off cuts and sheets of fibreglass without resins are worthless laying around.

You could make a saving by building the base or mold though.

But is the right size to learn a bit more about fibreglassing without having to go to a second mortgage.
