I would just have a platform that drains into a 5 gallon bucket

Well 5Gal is quite a bit less than a normal shower, and I think the height wouldnt pan out (Im 6'3). The platform is more of the problem. I could fab one out of stainless but that would be more expensive than the most basic shower pan ~$190. Ive had one built at a shop before from IBC totes which was actually pretty sweet, but not enough space here.

This is the best available material Ive come up with thus far.

For who? I shower in like 3-4 minutes

The average person. 3 min. Is still over 5Gal. I typically get wet and shut it off, then scrub/rinse to save water, but still. I have a dirty job, sometimes it takes a while to get clean even doing that. With a 5G bucket and headroom we're talking about 90 second shower.

Clarifying: That is, cutting a 5G down to about 3G or less so I can get my head wet and still have room for the pan. Cutting a 55Gal drum to size would be like twice the volume and more viable.

where are you pumping to, do you have a floor drian?

Nearby sink or toilet drain. Not sure what the circular cover is in that corner, very large rusty passageway, I assumed it was an old electrical channel, idk.

if you're gonna do this retarded thing, i'd say raise it enough to hold a 4/10 hp lift station
let the water drop in the reservoir, pump activates when a float raises from the water level in it's basin rising
24" is the smallest I know of in height
you could put it to the side of the shower and raise the shower less by running a drain under the raise into the upper side of the lift station and then pump it out to utility sink
i don't think you're gonna find a better way
showers run at 2-5 gallons per minute

i'll add it might just be a floor drain and worth paying a plumber $250 to run a camera down and verify
would save you a lot of money in the pump system

Unfortunately the retarded thing is pretty necessary. My working plan is that stock tank w/magnetic bottomed shower curtain, with a raised stainless perforated metal standing platform inside and transfer pumping out. Or building a platform w/ shower pan that drains into that stock tank and a sump pump.
Id agree about the plumber but that cavity appears to just be a 10x10 cube of walled off rust. Fuck knows.

We used something like this for asbestos removal. You need a pump, a shower head hooked up to a tap and some hose preferably connected to a hot water tank.

Shower head over a floor drain, probably fed by a hose
>I'm a bitch and I need hot water
Hook it up to your slop sink
>I have a small dick and want privacy
Hang a tarp
>i don't want water all over the floor
Get some fiber rolls

I was able to find a shower stall 75% off at the habitat for humanity for ~36$. I realized it was too high for the first mandoor to the bathroom, so I had to cut it down 3/4" >:[
Now Ive welded a little face frame to make it less flimsy from AL angle that will double as a curtain rod.

If I had a floor drain life would be much better.

Here you go anon. It's your $20 bathing solution. If the bathroom doesn't have a floor drain , you can use a construction sump pump

>>2990032
Lol OK

For the drain basin under the shower you could use a cement mixing tub. They are less deep than a storage tote. You could use it with a pump to move the water out while you shower. Do you have a drain in the area at all? You could just shoot it outside.
