Learn from my mistakes and trials as I show you 3 of my successful sink attempts. Having a minivan sink for van life and minivan camping can make ALL the difference. All three sinks have small grey water tanks attached. I consider all 3 ideas to be cheap van sinks as well! I also have a USB faucet that pumps water.

I actually just use bottles of water to wash my hair anymore..i just do it out in the open wherever i am in nature/sumtimes public parks, at camping sites they sumtimes have water pumps/hose hookups that u can bend over to wash ur hair underneath i like this since i dnt have to do so much ...and for the rest of ur body... wash cloth baths are necessary 💯 and essential 💯, 💯. And car living u just gotta find a private place to do all this or do it behind closed doors [literally] gotta love tinted backseats ...along with 'ho baths' which is washing ur private parts while u use the bathroom in a toilet... which I also use a water bottle to do so....its really the same thing as washing ur private parts in the shower, also I adopted this method from my college roommate who was Muslim, and would always have a pitcher of water drawn over by the toilet. ...and after using the bathroom, especially this way, wash ur hands very, very well with soap as to not be a nasty/ indecent fn person Lol This is what has worked for me. I do appreciate your new sink! I may have to make sumthing similar, but I want to have a pump instead of having to rely on electricity

In theory, you could use a heat gun to warm up the plastic on the bottom and then shove a mixing bowl or basket ball to bend it into more of a bowl/sink shape. Haven't tested it, but seems like it would work.

I could see where you could also use a bucket with a gamma lid and a smaller bowl to sit in a hole in the top. I think I would run a bead of silicone sealant around the bowl edge, and then you'd just take off the lid to dump your grey water. Great ideas, thanks for sharing.

Yep a bucket, a staimless steel bowl with a hole cut in the center is cheaper than buying a sink, and battery powered water pump placed into a ring ( the kind used to hold a water bottle to a rabbit/hamster cage) which is attached to the bucket.

absolutely love the bucket idea.. Can i suggest a black bucket, black pvc piping with a diameter that allows for the tap pump to sit in snug and metal strap to keep the pvc plumbing down the side of the black bucket to stay in tack.. it will look solid and you could possibly run a drain off the bucket with a side tap that runs tubing to under your car for water to be drained too..

tbh the first concept had the most promise and potential. you could've found a collapsible solution, maybe enclosed the grey water so it didn't spill when full and when driving. the others created more work and problems for you.
@embertheelder
@embertheelder 9 месяцев назад
I have the same faucet. I love it. I took a rubbermaid bin and cut a hole in the top for my collapsible sink. self contained so the clean and grey water are both in the bin in different containers. if you're on an angle a lil, you just collapse the sink in the direction you need to allow it to drain. I do things in 1 gallon jugs so I never have to carry more than a gallon of clean or grey water at a time.

Clever Ideas! And let me add my solution for a sink. Auto supply stores carry several types of inexpensive PORTABLE OIL DRAIN PANS that hold 5 to 12 quarts. The top has a shallow depression with a twist plug that drains into an enclosed cavity below that is emptied by a side twist plug. The shallow depression works for light needs. Add a bowl when you need a deeper catchment, and pour the waste water into the shallow depression. Disposal is super easy with no splashing by twisting the plugs closed to carry the pan outside.

I hope this isn’t redundant, but I didn’t go through all 258 comments to be sure. Here goes. Perhaps instead of the wooden platform for the pump, you can hang a cup holder?

Could do it super cheap with just a round plastic container that would fit the tap. Cut a line and hole for the water tube and just glue it on to the side of the bucket. You could even just hot glue some magnets on the side and the you could mount it anywhere you have metal.

This is awesome. I camped with a small trailer that was a box on wheels for 10 years. I never really figured out the sink part. I would use CleanWaste bags that took water and congealed it so I could throw it away at the next trash can. Now I know how to do the sink for my next camper. Although I think I will use the larger CleanWaste bags for the bucket to keep the bucket clean.
@LynetteShawMcKone
@LynetteShawMcKone 7 месяцев назад
Excellent idea with the bucket: but have you thought about a plug? when you want to just wash your hands, or perhaps a small item of clothing, a plug of some sort would be a good idea. Even a circle of thick'ish silicon sheet cut to size would probably work. good job though.

I’ve gone through a series of sink myself and most didn’t work out well. Mainly because of the amount of water that spills or that smells. In a small space, I found it better to dispose of gray water as soon as possible. and And to help minimize spills, gray water needs to be kept in an enclosed container. Just my experience! Good Luck 🍀
@minivancampergal1554
@minivancampergal1554 Год назад
Yeah, I agree! My bucket sink works the best because the water I use doesn't come close to 5 gallons, so the level stays pretty low. And the sink with the rubber bungee seals it up pretty well. What's the saying - Don't ask me how I know? Haha.
@sherryduncan7968

You could just pull the bowl out and add a Menards bucket lid to the top. I think I'd dump it right away and store everything in the bucket with the lid when not in use. Still clever all the same though!

That is a good setup. I have the same pump. I mounted it to the top of my top loading refrigerator using magnets and ran the hose inside thru a hole and into a 1-gallon water jug. Now I just push a button and get ice cold drinking water without having to open the lid or use water bottles. I have been washing dishes using two spray bottles. One has water and dish soap, and the other just plain water. I wipe off my dirty dishes with paper towels, then squirt it with my soapy water mix, and then scrub it with a green pad, they rinse it with the clean water spray bottle. I found it to be easier than traditional dishwashing and only uses a tiny amount of water. I use the spray bottles to wash and rinse my hands, and to wet and clean my toothbrush. I highly recommend using spray bottles.

Clever sink solution! I struggled a bit with mine as I didn’t want to cut a hole in the cabinet for the sink, had to come up with a solution to raise it to allow for drain. I love how you just drilled holes in the bowl and made that the drain directly into a bucket! The use of the rubber bungie for a snug fit, all of it. It reminds me of me and my “ridiculous contraptions” that I seem to always be forced to come up with. Good job! Love it when something works perfectly for the situation.

The intake hose can go in a 5 gallon water container or a large tea kettle for taking a quick shower, washing dishes, hands, or pets.

Glad she’s so resourceful. Great ideas. Would a simple home water hose and adjustable sprayer handle attachment like the ones used to water a garden or hose down a driveway work - that way she can pull it out the door as well for washing her hair and hang it on a hook near a 5 gallon container for indoor use. The water pressure on a sprayer is adjustable. The bowl doesn’t seem deep enough for hair washing or washing dishes and the faucet isn’t tall enough. But if the hose is removable from a sprayer by simply screwing it off and also the the rear water supply she can also screw the hose to a campground water supply to refill and for other water needs such as rinsing off shoes outdoors - that way she doesn’t use up her 15 gallon water supply. I’d also recommend a small solar panel for the rear water supply to keep the water warm - if even just a window pane above the storage tank. .

Was about to say for aesthetics, with the right cleaning, scuff sanding, priming, paint, and clear top coat could make bucket look any color/finish you want...but then saw you got it covered. Stainless steel is an excellent material for sinks. I once did a deep-dive on researching sinks abd stainless steel was the affordable but sanitizable one I liked best even if I find other metals prettier. Excess water may splash so im wondering about some sorta basin Now Im curious to hear your toilet ideas and more...

Get a plastic watercup that holds the water pump. You can cut out the bottom for the hose and attach the cup to the bucket with just about anything,screw it, 2 sided tape, magnets or a rubber band all around the top.
