I Built a Backyard Waterpark - Full Detailed Build
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
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!

How cool is that for you to bring JOY to your family and friends…. You’re the sweetest ever. So glad KZread helps support your endeavors.
One of the coolest channels on KZread. 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.
Wow dude all I could think of during the video was wow mom better have an extra special present for this dad after he's done. Now to find out that you are the uncle and you just did it out of love for your nephew and nieces, man you a special uncle dude. Those kids are lucky to have an uncle like you!
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!

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.
As the founder of the UOTY award program, I want to start off by thanking all of our 2022 nominees. You have all played uncle role perfectly, and made the lives of so many nieces and nephews more enjoyable, with your positive influence and great examples. As far as I’m concerned, you are all winners. Please join me at this time as I announce the winner of the 2022 Uncle Of The Year Award. This years winner is none other than, Drew at Drew Builds Stuff 🏆
I’m just in pure awe of your deep love and consideration for your nephews and niece! I’m an Aunt of many so this hit close to home for me. Btw thank you for the detail in installing pex piping and the fittings and how you applied it to multiple water features. You literally built a water park, it’s amazing and functions so well it’s impressive and I look forward to more projects
Keep up the amazing work. The KZread algorithm gods will enjoy this and you'll be at a million subs in no time.

I hope you love making these videos as much as we love watching them. Lately, I feel like a lot of the DIY people I’ve watched for years are starting to get away from what made their channel so lovable to begin with. You, good sir, are making a lot of the stuff that people want to see and you’re doing it very cinematically. I truly hope you keep making things! Hopefully once a week in the near future…??? 😂
Great summer playground for the kiddos, outside playing with each other, Great memories 😀
Now you just have to build a beach pool/pond and you will be the coolest uncle Drew ever. 😊
You are the coolest dad/uncle/brother/godfather/friend EVER! Love it!
I don't have any children but I think one of best things in life is a childs laugh and smile. Love your videos.
I swear to god Drew your builds are the most incredible, detailed and skilled builds I've ever seen on this platform! Hope your channel goes viral soon, you'll deserve every earned penny!

@@DrewBuildsStuff Great, be looking out for them
I watch a lot of these videos of people building stuff, and very few ever tell us what they are doing and why they are doing something a certain way. You, sir, are a welcome exception. You explain almost every inch of what you are doing, why this way or that way, and what something is for. Why can't they all do that? (grins)
I honestly love whenever you post its so relaxing
I’ve been watching your videos ever since I was little. I always use my family’s tv to binge watch your old videos! Right now I am checking back to realize that you’ve reached 100k! Can’t wait for your silver play button unboxing video! It is really inspiring how you go through hours of back pain and work to make a pool for your kids!! I’m gonna finish watching the video later, but great job!! 👏
Drew looks absolutly great, bet the kids find it so much fun, only worry would be the bolt heads on the base of the waterslide, what about silicone on a piece of lenghways cut in half pex over all the heads to ensure total safety from accident. Again Drew fantastic creation for the kids
You are the best uncle ever!
I would put that in a 6 inch deep pool and connect the pump to the park. Genius idea!
You are a great father and Uncle for building your private little waterpark. The kids will have a lot of fun with it and it will be a good way to cool off when it's hot. It must have taken a lot of planning to buy all the different parts, pipe and fittings to make it all work. Looks like everyone had a blast trying it out.

Great job. I always look at these things like this, even if something will cost me to build something the same amount as store bought, at least i build the way i want to, not bought generically build like what others have. Im sure kids appreciate it more also knowing you tried and built it your self.

This is such a great idea, you should add the whole thing onto a substructure (another deck) and make a sump, with a pump and filter that can fill a holding tank that's like a water tower for pressure and for water conservation.
