    Since a lot of people have mentioned it, I'm not done making videos with voice over and commentary. I just wanted to try something different and maybe reach a wider audience. This video had very little to talk about that has not already been said in my previous videos. I do have a few projects coming up that will be made in my typical fashion, so stay tuned!
    That being said, I appreciate all the feedback!
    The community I have here is what keeps me going and I'm flattered you all miss hearing my voice. haha 😄

    I like it, and also appreciated the no music to it. The only thing that I would do differently is an easy access to the pump, since you never know how long it will last. Another feature that I add to my fountains is a Floater connected to the water valve so that I don't have to worry about refilling the reservoir since water tends to evaporate. Other than that, BEAUTIFUL.

    I've been comparing ideas for a small water feature in our garden. Nice looking project. Simple, neat, natural looking. I agree with one comment--I would pay another $35 for a 45 mil EDPM heavy duty pond liner. This needs to last for many years, and changing it out would be a disaster. Even the reviewers on Amazon complain that this thin, PVC liner was punctured under careful handling. Buy once: cry once.
