Oh my stars, I'm in love with that cast iron trough! 😍 So classy already and when those copper pipes patina.... A whole nother level of gorgeousness will emerge 🥰🤗

[@kouklakee]

The birdies will love this fountain! Great job 👏🏼

[@MommaLlama]

Some water lettuce and/or water hyacinth would look so beautiful in your new fountain😁

[@greenthumbelina7331]

Kaleb, I love how you made that cast-iron horse water trough into a fountain. The sound of running water in the landscape is like a magnet for wildlife and other creatures (including humans), and it sounds wonderful. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I've had a dozen fountains and ponds. I have never heard of the cord stopper. Wow! Your fountain is beautiful!

[@spacecat5517]

This is a great idea. I love how you took so many ideas and made them your own, and the fact that its reasonably priced. Kip is so sweet and so chill.

[@patriceg1100]

Turned out beautiful, love the contrast between the black trough & copper tubing! Just so pretty.

[@ulla.umlaut]

I have a plan that when I get around to actually working with copper water lines, that I would practice soldering by making fountain parts. This is a great tutorial on the form and a great way to not need to bust out the torch!

[@tpryor3962]

Kaleb, will you provide measurements and a list of copper tubing sizes please. I’m going to give this a shot with my trough. Thank you 🤞

[@WyseGuide]

If you follow the first link in the description, it will give you a list of the copper tubing I used. As for measurements, I would suggest customizing it to fit your trough dimensions. I tried to give equal spacing between the bubblers and the edge of the trough. If you use three bubblers, divide the length of your trough by four. That will give you the spacing needed between the bubblers, while also appearing symmetrical in the basin. Hope this helps! ⛲

[@NickDrinksWater]

I love how hydrated the grass and all the plants look.

[@darciereed9595]

Love it!!! The sound is perfect. The birds will enjoy it too 💜🥰

[@terriford5634]

I don't see myself crafting a fountain, but if one needed one, this is a great tutorial! I'm sure it will help many people be inspired to create their own version or solve their own fountain problem. Enjoyed this craftiness. More and more please!

[@kellyr6274]

😮Woah, that size trough is easily a couple thousand dollars, if not 3 thousand. It's great Kaleb, just beautiful! Tfs🙂

[@GrandmaSandy]

Everything is very beautiful. I thought the fountain turned out great. I love the horse trough festival. I’ve never seen something so beautiful and a great shape.

[@anitahadley2871]

You find the most fabulous vintage pieces! i love what you did with this one.

[@vanessaelvins5821]

You are a fantastic teacher. Absolutely beautiful foundation 💞💞💞

[@ChristineHemmert]

Awesome!! My husband made a bubbler for me out of a gigantic ceramic pot a few years ago. I love it and the birds do too! Yours is gorgeous just as it is.💚

[@patboyle267]

What a great idea!! 👏👏👏 thanks for sharing so helpful to see how you created that fountain. Loved seeing Kip enjoying the grass ❤

[@rhondaschenk5727]

I love, love love the fountain! It looks great, Caleb!

[@janschubart4419]

Love your water feature, I admire your diy skills.😊

[@lucy2beme]

I love the trough with the copper spouts! I would add some gravel to the bottom of the trough to cover the pipe fittings.

[@k9kayaks]

Very nice and well explained especially that copper pipe glue very helpful for people who don’t do soldering ❤️❤️❤️

[@aharri381]

Hey, an additional plus with using copper pipe is it should act as a natural microbial in the water. My brother has a copper pipe laying in the watering trough for his livestock and mold does not grow!

[@PleasantPrickles]

So nice! I feel like you can build anything! 👏👏👏

[@harrietjames9191]

Looks absolutely great! Thanks for sharing with us.

[@jerryrobinpendleton5171]

Yeah I could never put that together! Looks great! Always nice to see Kip!

[@bonniejackson7476]

What a beautiful trough! Good job.

[@lauravandien2363]

I’ve been waiting since Christmas to see what you were going to do-and oh my-I absolutely love it. The copper is the perfect fit and it’s going to be even nicer when it ages and the patina takes over.

[@anitraahrens905]

❤ What a fantastic and clever idea repurposing an item for a new use. Some water plants would be a great finishing touch. ❤

[@lynnstarr8573]

Very cool and clever!

[@carolynclark8780]

So clever! And it looks easy with that copper adhesive. I think I might give this a try. Thanks!

[@julsg123]

Love every thing about this! Maybe some pond dye so that the bottom pipe/pump can me hidden?

[@D4ni3773]

Oh. I love this idea! Great video!

[@MichaelRusso-k9j]

A simple design but not easy to put together. Definately takes thinking,patience and perseverance. Your fountain works perfectly and I like it's location and all three bubblers in the center instead of just one. Rewarding, as the water fountain is your very own creation. Had a pond I worked on myself and liked the location in my former garden but unfortunately too many critters wanted to dive in!

[@lindabennett6205]

I love you new fountain it looks beautiful. I also have a fountain and I love hearing to water bubbles. Love you show too

[@elizabethsolomon2864]

Once again, zoom out an d get a pic of the fountain in the beautiful landscape plz!

[@wildtame3823]

I think this is great, but because of the depth, I'm afraid birds may drown in it. Could you add a platform or grid for birds to sit on inside the trough?

[@naturegirl7777]

...I LOVE this! It looks AWESOME, and the simplicity of the copper piping fits the antiquity of the trough. Seeing this out a window, or just walking by would be sooo fulfilling! 🤗🙌🫶 I have a stock tank with a pump and waterbell which in itself gives me an ample sound of water in my garden. It's a must. 🙏👌 👩🏼‍🌾💚 =^..^= [MD, now7a]

Thanks I love it 😍

[@dutchgram3799]

Very nice to listen to.

[@marktitus8516]

Looks great, just add some beta to pond to help control mosquitoes and a couple water plants. The mosquitoes larva should keep them fed but the algae on the plants will also help feed them. Maybe 2 or 3 for that size pond would be great. Mixing those bright colors would add to beauty of pond

[@graydi66y]

Mosquitoes don't lay eggs in moving water like this. Although I agree with fish and plants. Even above ground plants that root well in water. Pothos, basil, mint, mini bamboo, etc.

[@dianespring3228]

You can’t put more than one beta fish in they are fighting fish and will kill each other you can however put them with other fish

[@graydi66y]

You can put a few together as long as they all have enough space to establish territory. They aren't fighting fish. They are just territorial. They need space.

[@marktitus8516]

@dianespring3228 I have 4 beta in one tank and I've never had any problems

[@dianespring3228]

@@marktitus8516 that’s amazing every fish store has told me I can’t put more than one good to know thank you ☺️
