I'm an electrician by trade, know just a little about carpentry, and can watch Youtube videos on plumbing.  

Why not build my own outdoor shower?  

Western Red Cedar for all the wood.  First time I've sweated copper-  no leaks!  Some joints look decent, others a little ugly.  Vented valves on the hot and cold supply inside the basement, foot wash spicket on the lowest point outside.  As long as I don't forget to turn off and drain before winter I shouldn't have any problems.

I'm sorry, could you repeat that? I don't think I read that right.

Looks nice. I trust that you have assessed that the risk of copper theft in your AO is low.

As long as it took me to sweat all that together I’d be pissed if some meth head steals 8’ of pipe!
