This isn't remotely car related, but I wanted to show you my water feature project that I just completed.[ATTACH]001.jpg

Very nice work!

I still prefer the picture of your engine compartment though.

It can be car related...
Just empty the water, replace with solvent and it would make for an awesome parts washer.
Heck, fenders and complete engine blocks would fit in there!

But really, great job! Looks very nice.
The sound of moving water is quite soothing (except that escaping from ruptured plumbing. )
I have a few fake frogs around my pond/fountain in the back yard, too. Sometimes, they attract real ones also!

That has to be the most fancy-schmancy horse watering trough I've ever seen??
Let me guess...
Is your horse green and named Kermit???

Very nice, maybe there should be a garden pond forum here with all there seem to be around.
My septic tank aerator makes soothing gurgling water sounds and I have a dog wading pool???

Should have a 455 pump instead of the wimpy electric pump. Then you could really shoot the water

Oh Gawd Blue.... you just ain't right, lol!!

Very beautiful water garden!! I really like it. I enjoy ours - we have frogs and lilypads in it. I find the water very soothing, just listening to the water is relaxing. Looks like a great job! Thanks for sharing with us.
