Don't know if you have been following the "on board shower thread" looks like we are meeting at Boztec shop in Alameda on Sunday morning - hoping you can make it and show your progress on your setup and your heat exchanger. Also some good info in the link posted by Ross Woody.

I've put together my pump and pressure system just need the confidence to take the next step and start cutting hoses.
