Want to BUY IT rather than build it?
Most garden centers and some home centers carry fountains in several sizes and styles. Prices start at about $100 for a small fiberglass model. For a huge selection, go to simplyfountains.coom or just type "fountain" into any online search engine. Don't say we didn't warn you about the prices, though. Fountains like the one in this article can cost more than $500.

This fountain is a great project and while I would love to build one I don't have a computer in my workshop to refer back to for each step. Your web page is not set up so that one could printout or download the complete article with pictures and dimentions. That's a real shame as it could be so much better with all it's wonderful contents, I am a subcriber to the family Handyman. Jon
