I wonder what that would look like with LED strip lighting by the nozzles where the water comes out. Gives the illusion that the water is coloured. I like it. It’s so simple yet affected 👍👍
Oooo! Daddy like! Of course you would use a WATERPROOF LED light strip, because it is outdoors and right next to water. Waterproof LED strips are a little harder to work with, but you would eventually put them in anyway. I wonder how ultraviolet light would look.
1. How do you deal with evaporation: how often do you have to add water into your system to keep the amount of water at a level suitable for working ? 2. Where is the electric outlet for you porno? Thank you, great video!!
I am curious about both of these issues as well and hope he responds. I've read through most of the responds by viewers and will have to keep looking around for some answers.
You dont need to. Rain supplies water which gets evaporated on hot days. Also, high wind carries some water away. If it gets an overfill, soil absorbs it just like a regular rain
I did one like yours although I painted it instead of doing the burn process, and I think cane out good. The question that I have is how do you keep it from running out of water? The splashing when the water hit the rocks below is making me put more water in the bucket.
hello there, can you tell me the specification of your irrigation plugs, like size, etc. i am trying to rebuild what you did and hoping to buy that part. thank you
I’m sorry but, I thought you said in the video that you post links to the parts you used in making the water feature. I don’t seem to find them in your description.
It’s the tube in hidden in the post? Like what do you want the weed to be the pipe? That’s not gonna work. I’m sorry I’m an ass but yea he hit the water tune in the pole. Sorry you missed it.

Awesome! That’s a week long project for me. Then my OCD will kick in, and I’ll tear it down and get it right the second time. But you did make it look easy. EXACTLY what I was looking to build. Thank you!
Cool water feature but you'll constantly be adding water to the basin with this design due to wind and splashing water on the rocks. Ive built several style "pondless" water features like this and have always had to return to using pond liner extending farther past the catch basin to catch all the water. I really like how you scorched the cedar.
We built one about twice this size and its been a nightmare. Used pond liner for the basin. Everything works fine until its ran long enough to splash water outside of the basin and it flows under the liner. Then the hole fills up with water, raising the pond liner, and removing water from the basin.... took it all apart and lined the basin with thick stone tile. After a while it did the same exact thing. There's no way this guy isn't having issues. I'd like to see what his looks like today.
Enjoyed your video. Considering water feature in our garden. For me a big part of the selection will be the actual sound of the water feature as that varies a lot with different water feature designs. As such a short section of video where we could hear what the completed water feature sounds like without any other audio would have helped. This seems to be something most water feature videos overlook. Thanks again for the video and ideas.
I agree with fur about a liner, and adding weed fabric on top of the water collector to keep any debris out. Other than that it's a nice and easy way to add some curb appeal. Good job.
I’m not able to find the list of build materials on your description or website. Can you point me in the right direction? Love this build so much. I’m working on mine now as well.
I plan on doing something like That. Thought about metal plated face that would rust over time. I wished you would've shown a bit more detail on your non-screwed "access panels". I think adding pond liner around the Periphery sloping towards the catch basin would help retain water from splashes
@@MrBuildit , exactly what I was going to say. Water will find its way into the concrete footings, and then it will have a difficult time getting out. I hope you will add this advice into the video and re-post it.
I'm guessing you already had power out there. The cost of running 120v would be more than the water feature. Even direct burial wire has to be burried at 18 inches.
Love the burnt wood finish. 2 things no overflow for when it rains and the silicon can be applied to the drips before plug them into the pvc pipe. Few water loving plant arround it, and a night light, it will look stellar!!
Yes very nice video. however I don't think that buildl is going to last long. putting untreated 2 by 4 in wet concrete and then all that water near all the rest of that wood it's going to rot it out linseed oil or not. Still using that storage container with the lid was pretty creative

Good project, bed execution. As others have pointed out, should have used pressure treated wood that’s in contact with the concrete. And the catchment is far too small. Within a few years this will be in a landfill.
Mr. Build It,yea The wife wants me to build one next to our fire pit. Thanks for the ideal. But you’re doing great with your ideals and vids, so don’t let the Internet Rambo’s get to you brother.👍🏻👍🏻
Actually, low maintenance is an Advantage for "Pondless" Fountains, the rocks/lid with holes (and some people add screen) greatly limits debris and insect penetration
Hmmmm, thanks fir the heads up. Sounds like Solutions could be: 1. Inlay Pool Liner 2. Ensure packed dirt around bin for support 3. Double up the plastic bins 3a (spray a thick coating of "Leak Seal" or "Expanding Foam" between the doubled bins
Love the idea! I just completed ( mostly) building shou Sugi bon raised bed garden frames... I’m considering doing more with that technique. And a water feature is a consideration.
Listen at this point i will buy all materials, fly you out, and pay for the hotel if you would just do this for me and a patio!!!
WOW! Who could refuse That Offer?! Amazing
I want it too!!!
We are working on a water feature now and this video gave me-us some ideas. Thanks for sharing and your end product looks awesome!
It’s like designing a fireplace and mantle. Very cool and can be designed for any style.
So pretty

nice but you should have put led lights to soop up the look at night
Awesome 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Great job serious question for you. When it actually rains how have you prevented your in ground tub from over filling?
You dont need to. Rain supplies water which gets evaporated on hot days. Also, high wind carries some water away. If it gets an overfill, soil absorbs it just like a regular rain
Question. Could you have put the silicone on the jets just before putting them in the pvc?
Yes, just don't block the holes
I did one like yours although I painted it instead of doing the burn process, and I think cane out good. The question that I have is how do you keep it from running out of water? The splashing when the water hit the rocks below is making me put more water in the bucket.
You can use some pool liner to divert a wider coverage into your basin. Hope that helps.
Add Pool Liner about 2 feet beyond the periphery, sloped down to catch basin
What are the jets called.
Think I would like to make it a doorway to my garden.
hello there, can you tell me the specification of your irrigation plugs, like size, etc. i am trying to rebuild what you did and hoping to buy that part.
thank you
You don't have to use drip nozzles. Just drill the holes to the preferred size. Just make sure you drill perfectly straight.
Where did you buy the pump?
Wait wait, how do you turn it on and off? :o
You can purchase an infrared remote control plug
Just needs some LED lights
Would have been nice to hear the water feature once you had finished. Also, how did you connect power/electric source ?
I am curious about the power source as well.
You have to make a trench to your power source and run wiring through a buried pvc pipe
Better have a GFCI outlet for the day when you sell the property
Add a water feed line connected to a toilet tank float so it'll refill the water as it evaporates! 👍
Sounds good, do you have a Link showing how to do it?
Nice make sure you have a float switch in the tank for low level cut off
I’m sorry but, I thought you said in the video that you post links to the parts you used in making the water feature. I don’t seem to find them in your description.

The Sandwich Method... I like it.
easy fix would be an auto-filler.. easy as to install, and cheap..
As above, mine Is so much smaller but with wind ext/water refill needs to be thought about

Nice!👍 You should try using the wood torching technique for your fence too!
I'm only halfway thru the video but this is so freaking cool. I told my boyfriend I needed a blow touch... 😄🔥🌧️💕

It sounds like a typical rain fall. Nothing too loud.

I agree with fur about a liner, and adding weed fabric on top of the water collector to keep any debris out. Other than that it's a nice and easy way to add some curb appeal. Good job.
I like the idea but I'm not convinced I like the way the water falling turned out. I prefer clean lines of water = bigger screw holes?
Yeah, I'm going to have to Test that out too
Can you please share the link for the nozzles that you put in the pvc pipe?
I have the same question
I’m not able to find the list of build materials on your description or website. Can you point me in the right direction? Love this build so much. I’m working on mine now as well.
Im definitely making one of these for my dog!
Thanks for the inspiration. I would consider extending the top horizontal beyond the verticals, e.g.. Pi symbol.

Next time use GREEN TREATED LUMBER for the framing. Especially when submerging in a cement product.
Can’t go wrong with pressure treated

Cool. Could you use 1/2" pictures tubing instead of 1"?
That. Looked like KD spruce that you buried in the concrete, it will be rotten in a couple of years
Konda sixtytoo easily fixable by buying a new basin doh
I will put a thick layer of activated carbon instead of regular stone to extend the freshness of the water.
