DIY - Portable Sink

Everything is packed, and I mean everything. Clothing for 7 different types of weather. Food from all over the world. A lamp. Your gold fish from 5th grade. Dobby's sock. Arts and craft supplies. When you travel, you bring everything. Everything but, as some jerk will surely point out, the kitchen sink.

The one thing you cant take with you, the bane of your existence. The sink, laughing at you, an your inability to pack it. Well no longer! Now you really can pack everything and the kitchen sink!

Introducing the Portable PVC Sink... or more accurately, a portable PVC frame, for a collapsible drying rack that when constructed, and combined with with water-cooler jugs and electric water pumps, makes, for all intent and purposes, a sink.

Another thing that would be fun to try, exchange the push buttons faucet handles, to make it look even more like a sink. Perhaps use like a "momentary rotary switch" (potentiometer maybe) or just make some kind of mechanism that takes the twist of the knob/handle and presses a hidden momentary switch.

If you left a comment and don't see it, I think YouTube automatically removed it because it had a link in it. (I don't remove comments unless they are spam.) Thankfully YouTube forwards all comments to email, so I still got to read it. :)

One suggestion: If you were in a situation where you did not want to drain on the ground, you could situate the drain over one empty 5 gallon jug and dispose the waste water later. Great idea and great video!

Dude the production of this is hilarious. Thanks for making it extra amusing, instead of just a sterile overview of components.

[carolhewett]

All the folks doing van conversions should see this. Great ideas here. Recommend that biodegradable soap be used.

[michaelpatrickgorman]

Dude, this video is loaded with nuggets of brilliance! Thanks 🤟

[ladyhawker]

Something that is truly amazing to me, is the fact that obviously your tutorial works. You explain things so clearly, but I always worry that people don't have "a Nick" to help them with the actual product. I'm glad you're also available to answer questions when they arise. :) Good job hubby! <3

I was brought here because I was looking for glamping ideas, and this one takes the cake! What a neat way to keep hands clean and mouths watered while camping!

When you first dumped out the bag of PVC, I was like "oh no" but after you had everything together, you changed my mind. You seem like that guy at camp that makes it nice to be at camp. I am going to subscribe to your channel. I camper with a group about ten years ago and was "that guy" and built everything out of 5 gallon buckets, my most useful invention...the bucket fan, a ceiling fan torn apart and rebuilt in a bucket with qt bucket lids as blades.... I haven't camped with that group in several years, but was told they still use it. Kudos on the artistic mind

We did this in the 60’s in So Cal when you could still camp on the beach. We used a plastic dish pan from woolworths as the sink. We also had a shower of sorts. I miss the old days.

The "I personally like these big jugs" Comment with the zoom in on your face is what sealed the deal for the like LMAO!

[nunyabiznuss]

That's perfect for my needs - I'm a painter, and sometimes at jobs it's there's no way to clean my brushes after use. This solves that issue, thanks, and I'm subscribing to your channel!!

[chansformer]

Dude, this is probably one of the most awesome camp diy I've seen. Gave me lots of ideas for a sink for my overland build. Thanks for sharing, you can definitely sell this. Subscribed!

[anneargo-davies]

A work of art!!! Really unique, kids will want to wash their hands just as they can push the buttons. Thanks for sharing 👍.

[cecilymulet]

Omg. I'm DEAD. 😂😂😂😂 I LOVE the whistling and the music, then thr neighbor "everything but the kitchen sink", then everything turns blue and gloomy 😂😂😂😂 then "HI, I'm Nicky Clemens and THIS, is a sink. Some assembly required" .. inspirational motivational music in the background 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤ ~ man, this is great. This is gold.

[dinosanchez]

Dude, you're a god damn genius. People like you make the world easier. I bet you liked erector sets as a kid. Hell I bet you could easily access clean water straight out of a lake with a live action pump with a screen on the hose and a few filters connected. This gives me ideas, thanks.

[tracyhennessey]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣You are precious, Nick. Thank you so much for sharing this instructive video. Very helpful.

[lnkee]

Very cool and innovative. Maybe you can add a shower system to it as well. It swivels the other direction. Thanks for sharing!

[ayentompok]

Just like what I am expecting. Thank you for the brilliance idea..

[SBodya]

The exact type of setup I've been trying to find to DIY. Thank you for sharing ☺️
