How do you manage the basin overflowing when it’s raining?
I would cover that whole area with plastic (slopping towards the tub) and a smaller cut out over that tub to help divert ALL water into the tub. Otherwise the water may run out if it doesn’t all end up back in the tub.
Wouldnt itbbe easier to use 3/4 hose so it bends freeley
Nice job!
good idea guys….
That looks good. Very simple yet effective 👍👍👍
Look like a Texas backyard
Love this can you give the pump details please.
Nice job!
Notice you used CPVC glue on PVC. I know it’ll work but recommend PVC glue! And a 1/4" spin when gluing pipe joints 😉
The same replace particularly fax because picture simultaneously bolt failing a volatile canadian. vague, bustling hail
I might try this soon!
Concrete should have been mixed outside the hole and then poured in
Great job! I do have one question. Where is the power source coming from?
Nice work! I congratulate you on your efforts to build something like this, something that I have not yet done and should have already done.
But I ask … wouldn’t it be better if the colors of the LED lighting were programmed according to your mood, instead of the colors constantly changing like there is no tomorrow?
Beautiful awesome love it
Looks great!
I love the safety shoes..
Really liked it.
Did you make the swinging benches? If so, can you post a video.
That is very nice. Thanks for sharing, I am going to watch more of your videos. If I like, which from the thumbnails it looks like I will. I will be subscribing.
This was absolutely great——–>across the board! Perfect tutorial & beautifully demonstrated!
I know you’re enjoying the results. It’s ‘over the top’! <3 Thank you for sharing this!
Hi Great video! can you tell me what is the size of the water feature?
*We just did our front porch and side yard(which i also uploaded in my channel) I was wanting something like this in my front porch (mini size) trying to create a ZEN effect….this video is really good. Thanks for posting this*
What is height and width of fountain?
Nice build but I bet by now you’re struggling to keep weeds out of it since you put no barrier down. Id suggest digging up the rock and laying a pvc liner down. This will help redirect the water thats splashing beyond your basin back to your basin and block weeds and grass from growing.
Remember me when toilets were just a hole in a hut at the bottom of the garden
Awesome fountain.. Thank you for posting.
Just built mine today. Smaller version though. Neighbor wants me to build one for them tomorrow. Thanks for doing this!
Thanks for this video!! I am currently making mine. I have all the holes dug, now to buy the wood and pump. Can’t wait to finish this project
Thnx for sharing. Found your vid just when I am in the process of designing my home.
How does the remote work behind the wood? Does the remote signal go through? Thanks 😊
Lovely🥰 can I know how much does it cost to build rain water curtain along with swing overall cost of construction?
Very nice build. Thanks for sharing!
You did a great job! Thank you for sharing.
Love it
Wow it’s looking really gd
Great job kudos to you both!
How to select a pump I already have a feature wall created for this but unable to decide on pump.. pls suggest
Looks nice – temporarily
– bin is not for outside use ( will get brittle and crack) use pond liner
– wood is interior use only ( although you said it was pressure treated – pressure treated wood has small indentations )
– holes will clog , for algae will fill ( need to use mildewcide)
– metal flashing should be used on top of structure or you’ll have dry rot in no time
– electrical was ran by extension cord , so many things can go wrong with that ( fire – electrocution, or more )
Nice idea , but improperly executed .
Can you post what you used for your lights and connection that was water proof?
Never, ever pour the concrete like you did, never put a post directly in concrete like you did.
Looks amazing 👏😍👌
Absolutely beautiful! Cost ?
What water pump you use how strong how many wats or flow rate??
impressive very good . i see cameraman did hard job
Going to have a lot of weeds
Good job; on design concept, project construction, AND video production. My only criticism is the “music “. Taste is arbitrary, and whatever style of music you pick, statistically, the odds are against you. 70% of viewers either 1.) don’t notice or care, so it neither helps nor hurts; or, 2.) find it mildly distasteful and distracting, competing with the narration’s intelligibility; or, 3.) find it aesthetically quite distasteful and unpleasant to have forced upon them, since they have to set the volume such as to hear the narration, especially in cases like this, where your command of english is flawless, and the composition of the script is excellent, most Americans, at least, would agree that you have a quite pronounced (no pun intended) Hindi (or similar) accent, requiring close attention, and is very susceptible to any background noise (including ‘music’) creating a level of annoyance over and above the norm. Considering the additional time, effort, skill, and possibly expense you go to, I submit that its inclusion with the imagery and narration will not serve any useful purpose, nor will it make the video more pleasant to watch, or make it come off as more professional; moreover, the likelihood that it might be a dis-incentive to watch or like the video, (completely irrespective of the content), much less to consider subscribing to your channel, all combine to make a very strong case for discontinuing the practice. I want you to succeed, and I’m only trying to help, and these were my impressions. Videos of this quality will succeed on their own, and channels offering videos of this quality will succeed and grow on their own. Interesting or informative CONTENT, well presented, and respectful of the viewer’s time an sensibilities will always succeed.
Very happy to see my fellow Indians actually breaking out the tools and doing the manual labor and building this themselves. So many of the Indians I know shy away from manual labor and projects like this and I am so proud to see you two design and build this yourself. Great job!
Hello. I missed the patio link…
This is without a doubt the best video i have ever seen on how to make a pondless water feature. Thank you so much
