I am looking for some simple plans to build a portable mister for some of our outdoor activities. I need something that would be small, run off of a normal water hose, and that can be taken down and put back together easily.

thanks

The design of this portable mister looks pretty basic. It looks like it could be replicated. http://www.aquamisters.com/mistingkits.html

Not really sure what you are looking for and how you are using it but the plant watering/misting systems available at Lowe's are put together with small rubber hose so they would be very portable.

this is an example (http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=191775-1029-MLK-PWK) of a premade system. They have individual parts as well so you can design what you want and need.

I got my patio misters last summer and it really works well during hot summer days. I haven't tried the one from Lowe's, I got mine from Home Depot. You can read some information here about #############

I am not sure how to assemble this one. I would look again for another info on the web and will post it soon.

well since you are attempting to sell the things, if you cannot figure out how to assemble the thing, why would anybody else even consider wasting their time with it?
