DIY Glass Waterfall

I give you an overview in the video, but a written step by step tutorial can be found here: http://www.ibuildit.ca/other%20projects/water-feature-1.html I ran into a free piece of glass with my company's logo sandblasted into the back, so I took it home and started to figure out how to turn it into a waterfall.

Nice job April, on the glass waterfall.
I have watched quite a few of your vids and must compliment you on being articulate and well informed.
Do you have a lot of retakes or are you a natural at what you do.
Keep on making DIY videos. You have helped a lot of people.

Holy cow your shop looks so different now, when compared to this video.
What?! I have to tell you, my heart sank a bit when you told Scott your company didn't even want to look at it. What a horrible attitude! You must have felt like you were kicked in the stomach. I know I would have felt that way if I put so much time and effort into a project for some one and they didn't even care to see it. I'm sorry they treated you like that April, that was seriously crappy of them.
The hell with them. They obviously don't deserve such a nice gesture. I would have taken out their piece of glass, got another piece of glass and etched my own logo on it, reinstall it and kept the fountain for myself!!!
Then I'd drop a dumbbell on their piece of glass to break it, put all the shards in a cardboard box and dump the box at the boss's door as I announce that I quit their company. I'm not usually vindictive, but something like that would have pissed me off deeply.
Well, onward to better things, I say! Leave them behind in the dust.
You go, girl!
Funny how, now, you have companies that sponsor you. Given your rising fame, I wonder if the company you made that for has any regrets now... ?
Mam , How can I make aqua graphic water curtain for my final year project ? Plz give me some idea or aproaches.
Thank you soo much!
Please let me know.
Thank you.

Thank you John. I appreciate the input and advice. Trust me. I thought about that and I am still investigating. I am going to mount this on the wall and even with that I will probably add either legs or a base underneath, just not as wide. Thankfully I have a friend who is a wood worker and welder who can give me some advice and also build whatever support(s) I will need. It will be a 4x5 glass waterfall. I will keep you informed and pics as I build and drive myself crazy with this. LOL. Thanks again for your input.

I might have a go at one using acrylic and give it to the kindergarten my wife teaches at.
I can also tell you some tricks to illuminate the glass itself rather than just shining lights on it... I'll be doing one for our business very soon. I use templates and sand blast the letters an patterns into the glass.
keep up the good work
Bravo!
April.
Pass.! 합격 ㅎㅎㅎ.
1. One question, in your video did mentioned the piping hole was facing up. What happened when the pump stop?
Will it go around the pipe and making a water drop...
2. I built one of this but limited space at the front (about 4") therefore when the pump stopped it create droplet then cause splashing when it hit water at the bottom catchment. My glass was slanted a bit...
Any good advise is highly appreciated.
Thank you.
Thanks!

All the best to you and thank you for sharing.
There is alot of business in Miami you may consider business here.
I'm planning for it to be about 12" in height and 6" in width
I was having some problems establishing a system for the water distribution, and this video helped me tremendously with that
It would also really help me if you told me what the GPH of your water pump was
You mention that you marked off 1" margins for the water holes, but only ended up cutting holes every other inch. Wouldn't the 1" margins provide better water merging? Or is there something I'm not considering?
Do you have any other advice for managing water pressure and getting the water to merge well?
Thanks a lot!
that's the one I looking for -thanks for the good video
The waterfall looks great. I hope the company you work for appreciates it. This would look beautiful in a lobby with that company logo etched into the glass and the lighting. Very creative and clever design and build.
Regards,
Bob

I've been waiting with baited breath to see this ever since you told me about it. Outstanding!

Now give it back to the company for some serious brownie points!!!!
It turned out great! And yes, sometimes you just have to tinker with something until you finds that sweet spot. Keep the videos coming.
Keep up the great work, and don't let the haters get you down. The projects and tips you are sharing are greatly enjoyed and appreciated.
God bless!
