An Even BETTER Outdoor Sink! 

Agree!! That’s why I’m here too!! 😆😆

@danielvarela8443 That's what I'm going to build mine for. Right outside the garage. I have a hidden area around some tall bushes. I'm going to use the 5 gallon bucket method so i can walk around and water some plants. 117 F here today in Scottsdale, Arizona.

Greg, we're glad you found this to be helpful. We make ongoing use of this sink during the warm months. It's become something we depend on as we do a variety of tasks outdoors, as well as getting some cold water in the face to cool off with on hot summer days. Thanks for letting us know that you've been able to install a sink in your outdoor workspace as well. Best Regards, DFJ

Love it, Yamaha Japan! Best, DFJ

Glad to be of help, BlueMoon!

Good for you Angie. We've had our outdoor sink out during the summer months for the last several years. Makes a huge difference when washing garden veggies as we pick them. Enjoy that sink!!! Best to you, Dirt Farmer Maggie.

Will do! Thanks for watching and writing. Best, DFJ

b watson, thanks for stopping by. Be sure to let us know how your project turns out! Best, DFJ

@@DirtFarmerJay I got everything as your spreadsheet. (having hard time to get the adapter) I hooked up everything. But there is a leakage between the washer hose and adapter. I do have a washer inside the water hose. I have not used a wrench to tighten it. Is that something I should do? I did use seal tape between the adapter and the laundry faucet. I have watched your film many many times.

BTW, the Home Depot does not have the right adapter and I got the adapter from Lowes. The male side is much longer than the one in your film. Could this be the issue?

@@DirtFarmerJay The adapter I bought from Lowes said Bushing. The male side is much longer than the one you used. ANd I have leakage from there. There are so many details. I really have lots of respect with your line of work.

Congratulations Jrprez22. Depending on what part of the country you live in, if you get hard winters with lots of cold weather you should consider putting the outdoor sink in a storage room or workshop for the winter so it will last longer. The rapid temperature changes are hard on it. It's pretty fast to set up again in the Spring. Best, DFJ

Thank you 😁

Jennifer - what a marvelous idea! Thanks for weighing in! Best, DFJ

Good to know! Thank for your kind comments. Best, DFJ

Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting J K. Best, DFJ

Erika, you would cap off one valve inlet below the faucet, attach the supply line to the other inlet with a pipe thread to hose thread adapter, then attach the hose to the other end of the supply line. You can check out a complete parts list at www.dirtfarmerjay.com/articles/outdoor-sink-supply-list. I hope that helps - enjoy your sink! Best, DFJ

actually wouldn't mind using the old (holder) either by drilling another hole in the top for it like most sinks already have that allow a sprayer.

Robert, that is teflon pipe compound, commonly known as "pipe dope." It is used whenever threaded pipe fixtures are assembled. It's available at your plumbing supplier. I hope this helps! Best, DFJ

Jessie, glad you found it to be helpful! I'd use the single hose and cap off the other side. However, if volume of water is important to you, you'll get more by using the y connector so you get water coming through both sides of the valve. You just get better utilization of the volume of the combined tubes in the faucet itself. I hope this helps, and thanks for stopping by! Best, DFJ

Mel May, glad to be of help. The adapter is a 1/2" FIP (Female Iron Pipe) by 3/4" Male Threaded Hose End. Hope that helps! Best, DFJ

Binge away J B. There are no calories or cost for watching DFJ! Think of it as a guiltless pleasure! Dirt Farmer Maggie

@@DirtFarmerJay haha 😂

Appreciate that, Mason! Thanks for writing. Best, DFJ

Jackie, check this out. I hope this helps! Best, DFJ www.dirtfarmerjay.com/articles/outdoor-sink-supply-list

@@DirtFarmerJay Perfect!! Thank you so much! 🙏🏼

Not sure what you mean. Give me a bit more detail, please. Thanks for writing! Best, DFJ

Thanks for watching and commenting Mike Bravo. In the winter months here in the Mountain West we get quite a bit of snow and freezing weather. So we dismantle the sink and put it in the barn over the winter. If only takes a few minutes and it will help the sink last MUCH longer. Best, Dirt Farmer Maggie

Thanks for watching and commenting Bella M. We live in the northern Mountain West of the US and get significant snow, etc. in the winter. We put our sink away in the barn every Fall and get it back out in the Spring. It's very easy to unhook and hook back up - just a drain hose and the garden hose for water supply. That way the sink will last longer if it doesn't have to endure the low temps and you don't have to worry about getting a hot water source. If there is water laying in the hoses during winter, it will freeze and burst the pipes anyway. This sink is meant to be a warm weather assistant to help when all the outside work and gardening is being done. Hope this helps. Best, Dirt Farmer Maggie

You're welcome, Byron!

1-1/2" x 12". Hope that helps!

Thank you so much !

I dont think so. There is no input of water. Right? So we can save even more by leaving the other side alone.

I left it uncapped and no problem.

Cold only. It could be plumbed for both if a hot water source is nearby.

Tamiko, that's a great idea! Best, DFJ

Thanks for writing. What you need to do is take the pipes (where it's leaking) apart and put pipe compound on them, then reassemble. That should take care of the leak. Let me know if that took care of it. Best, DFJ

@@DirtFarmerJay You are the BEST!!! That most certainly took care of the problem!! My sink looks beautiful in the garden next to honeysuckle. Thank you so much!!!

That is a tail piece that allows you to connect a drain hose. Hope that helps! DFJ

@@DirtFarmerJay Thanks YEAH I BOUGHT IT FROM ACE HARDWARE. GREAT CHANNEL 👍

Here you go, Brandon! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hTgQchtI-MM.html

Absolutely! Be sure to put the sink where it can drain into a bed nso you don't waste the water.

Thanks Ahnita Fab. Keep watching and commenting. Best to you, DFJ
