Since a lot of people have mentioned it, I'm not done making videos with voice over and commentary. I just wanted to try something different and maybe reach a wider audience. This video had very little to talk about that has not already been said in my previous videos. I do have a few projects coming up that will be made in my typical fashion, so stay tuned! That being said, I appreciate all the feedback! The community I have here is what keeps me going and I'm flattered you all miss hearing my voice. haha 😄

This is the way to do a YT Video! Music is so annoying. When I want music, I like to see the musicians. It doesn't go with 'how-to' videos. And sometimes words are superfluous. Great job with yours! Thank you. I hope others can follow suit!

Yesssss...thank you. This is refreshing. I get all the information that I need and want without the annoying repetitive music and narration filled with the incessant "uhmm"s or the attempts to sound "cool" (or whatever the current equivalent term is). In addition, you speed up the repetitive activity such as shoveling. This is very considerate; we all know how to shovel. Keep up the good work. We appreciate it.

Yea I really enjoy the videos that just show the work without the nonsense. Even when I narrate and explain in my videos I try to keep it relevant.

I like it, and also appreciated the no music to it. The only thing that I would do differently is an easy access to the pump, since you never know how long it will last. Another feature that I add to my fountains is a Floater connected to the water valve so that I don't have to worry about refilling the reservoir since water tends to evaporate. Other than that, BEAUTIFUL.

Nice water feature. I think I'd put the pump in back, under a slab that was more easily removed. That impeller is going to foul and need cleaning and those little pumps don't last forever. (keeper of ponds X 30 years now)

Very nice build video! In my experience i would use a thicker liner like 45 mil rubber liner. The pvc liners always get brittle and crack very quickly if you live where it gets cold in the winter. Looks great and i plan to try this style of fountain for my yard.

I've been comparing ideas for a small water feature in our garden. Nice looking project. Simple, neat, natural looking. I agree with one comment--I would pay another $35 for a 45 mil EDPM heavy duty pond liner. This needs to last for many years, and changing it out would be a disaster. Even the reviewers on Amazon complain that this thin, PVC liner was punctured under careful handling. Buy once: cry once.
