Hi everyone,

As you may know I'm working on getting the bracket you all saw in our previous video ready for production. Its going to be a reasonable investment for me in time and money to get these available to buy so I thought id do a quick poll to determine just how many I should make.

To be honest, some sketches or photos would help a lot. Reading the descriptions in the poll does not give me clear enough understanding of what you're offering.

All of these products tempt me but (as you probably saw from my previous post) it's the safety side I need help with to confidently buy. I guess the big win is always the option to mount such that the weight doesn't sit directly above anybody's head. The more that can be done to reassure me here the more I'd feel tempted to not only buy but to recommend to others.

I'm interested in what others think here.

I agree with your concern and it is something that I've been working on for a while. With the original valve we never sold it as part of any kind of hanging system as really we saw it as a component for someone's project. With the mini valve we really wanted to open it up to people who perhaps can't facilitate a build large enough to need one of our full size valves which is also why we fitted it to a small 2.5l bucket to reduce the amount of weight someone would have to figure out. This is also the reason that I did not release the bracket seen in our demo alongside the mini valve as it was very much a prototype which while functional did not have the qualities that i deemed appropriate to release as a product. The suction grip handle we sourced has a load capability of 30kg which I've personally tested and am happy that is accurate. As for the bracket part the intention is to have them cnc cut from structural ply wood abd sealed with a varnish. Once I get the sample I'll test this setup again with the mini valve and 2.5kg of gunge then I will also do a test with a higher amount of weight just to check.

I would say that obviously there is risk involved in any wam activity, I for one know how easy it is to slip on gunge and give yourself quite a head injury. And I would also say that if you're not confident in setting up or building a gunge dropping device then its probably best that you dont and perhaps attend a location where someone has built and tested such facilities and use those.

Once I get the cnc samples I will provide some pictures.

I should think the complete setup is what most people would be interested in, although I suppose maybe ensuring the bucket is detachable would appeal to those who want to replace it.

I suspect the major obstacle will not be any of the kit, but the strength of the adhesive holding the bathroom tiles to the wall...

The bucket is removable from the valve and the valve is available to purchase on its own. But we would strongly advise against using any larger buckets on the bracket and suction kit.


Yes thus is definitely something that needs to be considered.

For those wanting more info or some images of the bracket, I've had confirmation that the samples will be with me tomorrow afternoon and if all is good then we should be good to go and get them up for sale. There will be 10 complete kits available and then I'll restock and sell brackets on their own.

Bit of a delay on releasing the kit, the samples I received today don't meet the quality that I was promised (and paid for) I've also decided to review the design a bit so please bare with me while we get this all sorted.

I'm mostly interested in the bracket/suction pad- gunge release is sorted, but I'd prefer something a bit more substantial than balancing a wooden plank on top of my shower screen.

The plank sounds pretty substantial to me. The suction setup really is only for the mini valve system and is not designed for use with anything else.
