$5.98 per strand of lights, 2 per arch. $12. X 5 arches = more than $55 just for lights.

The $55 was for one arch. Rebar, pvc, and lights. Best of luck on making them.

This is an awesome video - I am planning on using almost exactly your design for my pond. That said, there are so many details that would be useful! Where did you find a 40 gallon bucket? I'm seeing them for $100, which blows the budget open with a $125 sump pump. Not complaining, just wondering how you managed to find those materials at wholesale-ish cost. Any info on materials (other than sump / great stuff / bucket which are easy) would be very helpful!
@y2kok
2 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching. There are a couple of places that sell the 40 gallon buckets used around me. There is probably some retired guy near you that is selling burn barrels, and I bet they sell these as well. Look on Craigslist or FB marketplace for burn barrels, and see if they also sell these. Great stuff is going to cost what it costs. HD or Lowes is your best bet. On another note, if you don't have a sump pump already then check out the "submersible pond water pumps" or "waterfall pumps" on Amazon. That is the type that professionals use. just make sure the GPH is high enough and the dimensions of the pump will fit in the bucket. If I were to build another then I would use one of these. Good luck and stay safe. Electricity and water don't mix.

cool video, i just bought a house with a 3 ac pond. first thing i would like to do is add a fountain. really good ideas in the video. thanks for making it. I had an idea of pounding a pole in to the pond bottom (maybe galvanized or even wood ) and welding a platform to anchor pump onto then you would have a fixed location for the fountain without having to make a floating device. do you guys see any issues with this other than not be able to move and depth of anchoring pole in the bottom?
@y2kok
4 ай бұрын
Do not put a hole in the bottom of your pond. You might get lucky and have it not cause any issues, but you could cause a leak that would be very difficult to fix. You could make a platform to sit on the bottom of the pond, but I would still prefer a floating option. Also, if you have a three acre pond, then you may want to go the commercial route. This will make for a much larger fountain that will look correct for the size of your pond. Best of luck.

@@y2kok okay thanks for the reply. I made a decent fountain already from a 1/2hp sump and a fountain head from Amazon(works/ looks really good) but i tested over the weekend and definitely isn’t big enough. I’m gonna try the platform you mentioned with the one i made, maybe keep close to wading area and go maybe commercial for the rest. Sometimes things are worth buying. Thanks again.

Do you store them with the lights on or do you take the lights off at the end of the season and reapply. I made arches and store with lights in my attic but it was an absolute pain to get them back out. Just curious how you store them.
