Excellent work and thank you for this thorough behind-the-scenes look at the project! Even though it's not a project I'm currently interested in doing myself, I always enjoy seeing videos like this that share the materials used and the thought process behind the elements in a build. ngl, the hedge kinda blew my mind

Hello, I congratulate you on your excellent project of dancing fountains, they are incredible, I would like to ask you how I can regulate the flow of water in the pumps, so that the jets rise or decrease. I will appreciate your comments.

Add a pixel in the water stream just before the servo and black out the section so the light stays trapped in the water stream. This will really boost the effect. Last I'd add a fire effect at the top maybe a simple butane bubble with a surface spark or torch

Thanks for the suggestions. Since this video tour I have made a newer version of my fountain that can be seen here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gLF2atWCyNGnl58.html I have considered making small ring lights that would fit around the nozzles on each servo but I would want the design to be similar to one of Wet Design's "Oarsman" devices. The fire effect would definitely add a new dynamic to the show and I have been working on a concept with a device normally used to remotely fire pyrotechnics. Thanks for watching!

Hello Grant! I love your fountains and ngl, v4 is my favorite. So I am planning building a fountain show like yours and I would like to ask 3 things. 1 - Where were you able to get your pumps, containers and servos from? 2 - What are the size of the pump holes in inches? I need to find a tube to fit it for the oarsmen. 3 - Could you give me some tips about building these fountains, using light o rama etc? Thank you! Keep up the great work!

Spectacular! I have a 16-channel LOR gifted to me by a friend, who used it to run a Halloween light show. Shall I assume that this, several years old now, will indeed not control inductive loads such as fountain pumps?
@grantsfountainchannel4173
@grantsfountainchannel4173 Жыл бұрын
It very well may work. Fundamentally their AC controllers haven't changed too much. The main issue with older models is that when you run very low power devices on them they tend not to respond properly. You can add a small light bulb or something that draws more power to each channel to alleviate the issue.

@@grantsfountainchannel4173 Thanks! I had been told that LOR won't switch inductive loads such as pumps and motors, that I needed a relay between.

Wow, so easy yet so powerful!! Does the servo handle the water? Will they not die after some use?
@grantsfountainchannel4173
@grantsfountainchannel4173 Жыл бұрын
The servos are pretty vulnerable to water so one additional step that I took to keep water out was the use of black plastic bags that slip over the nozzle and cover the entire servo to act as a splash guard. It is possible that condensation could form inside of the bags so I also used a waterproof glue along any seams on the servo casing and applied marine grease around the servo horn.

@@grantsfountainchannel4173 OK understand. My plan was to maybe use 20-30cm links, that run below the water, and the servo is then mounted outside the pool. Do you still work on fountain? I have ordered 20x small 4w pumps. And my plan is to control this With a 36ch dmx controller. I also have 2 laminar nozzles.

@@liteglow2000 That sounds like a good idea. Yep, I am still actively working on my fountain. Essentially what I use are the same as DMX dimmers but just running a different network protocol so what you have in mind should work perfectly.

The heat shrink is lined with adhesive so it sticks to the nozzle very well.

So I'm going to be doing a project similar to what you've done (not as extravagant) and would like to pick your brain if you've got a few minutes. I'm in Southern California area and have just completed building the concrete pond structure and I've been discussing pumps with a couple of manufacturers in Alibaba. If you're interested in answering some questions let me know how to reach you. Thanks
