Hello Everyone!
My good friend works for the city water department and saved me an old fire hydrant from the scrap bin to make a garden water fountain out of.
Do any of you have any experience or ideas how to turn this hydrant into a water fountain that would slowly spill water out of one of the nozzles?
The fire hydrant itself is completely open from the bottom to the three nozzles on top.
I'll need some type of catch basin to bury in the ground and recirculating pump to pump the water. The fire hydrant can sit on a stand in the water basin, but I'm unsure of how to plumb the recirculating pump?
Here's a link to what I'd like to do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwVdcJJFsBY
Any thoughts or comments will be greatly appreciated on how to make this. I think it would be a neat little project for the corner of the backyard.
