One day I needed to order the fountain heads for a pool I was building and I started my google search as I typically do with everything today.  I didn’t realize that you needed to google water spitter to find a wide range of water features.  I ended up ordering 3 different styles of water spitters and ended up not finding any that worked. 

So we were buying some pottery in the South of France and notice that the potter made really nice water features.  Beth and I ordered a lot of different colors and styles.  I didn’t realize that the fountain heads were so nice until they arrived.  I quickly came up with a simple design and built a display to show people how they can be mounted and used.  

I used cinder blocks and portland cement to build a basin and mounting wall.  We used a large liner to hold the water and finished the exterior with a portland/stucco rub.  If I would have thought about it a little bit more, I would have mixed a color into the portland cement.  The plumbing was really simple.  A few fountain pumps, some pvc pipe and a few miscellaneous fittings and we had flowing water.
