I'm glad you put this here because your fountains are just beautiful and masterful creations of art.

Thanks folks,
Yes KD the fountain is wet, it has a recirculating pump in the bottom. The only live plants are the bamboo.

This is great work. Is there somplace a person could look at a blow by blow description of how you did this. Don't know if I would have the nerve to start something like this, but I would like to see how you did it.
Hope

Thanks again.
If anybody wants to make one of these things I will help with what I can. They are not hard to make.

Another excellent fountain. Has the fisherman caught anything yet?

49er, no, he's been sitting in that same place for a year and half without even a bite. Even at that, he's as good a fisherman as I am. ;D

Hey, you got it, great. They are neat little outfits, and they last a long time. I've never had one quit, and if they do give out, you just replace the ceramic disk on top. I also like the feature of automatic shutdown if you run low on water.
Did you get time to work on your fountain over the weekend?

I haven't had time to work on it yet. I had to build some shelves for my daughter's bedroom on Sunday. I spent a good portion of Saturday teaching wire wrapping to some of the people in the Gem and Mineral Society and then I filled in the gaps by making my own wire wraps to get my stash built up for this summer's craft shows. I'd like to go into the first craft show with 1,200 bell-capped pendants and 100 wire wraps. Tomorrow I'll probably go to the Animal Jungle pet store and get one of the large reptile bowls. They have some with that "nature" look that I think would work out great, and they also have some scenery I may be able to use for the waterfall, or at least give me some ideas. They also sell the plastic tubes. This will be a fun project for sure!
