I Built a Backyard Waterpark - Full Detailed Build

It's been a hot, dry summer... So what better way to cool down than with 20 gallons of water aggressively pouring on your head? I made this DIY backyard waterpark / splash pad and filmed every step of the way. Great backyard build for dads or grandpas.
Compete with a tipping bucket, floor jets, mister wall, DIY PVC water gun, tube water slide, rope tunnel, sandbox and rock wall. Budget was about $2500 USD with all new pieces.
Plans: Coming soon!

@sabriath Жыл бұрын

You should put a crossbeam with the plastic corrugated facing 45 degrees against the drop roof so that the bucket water gets angled more downward toward the drop zone instead of mostly in the yard....it will also guarantee the splash zone regardless of how much is in the bucket so that there's no disappointment of misfire. Looks awesome though!

@DrewBuildsStuff Жыл бұрын

Good tip! The kids are still getting use to it so maybe once they are ready for more water on them I will add that.

One of the coolest channels on KZfaq. Guy is a kid at heart and his smile is worth a million dollars. Thanks Drew! This video made me remember my Brother and I playing in the front yard just running through the sprinkler and it was the best thing in the world at the time. Thank you, from the little kid named Ralph and his lil' Brother Mark that lived at 4509 Swiss Ave, Dallas Texas, late 1970's, hot summer day, in our front yard.
