with the pump assembeled, the rest of the fountain was plumbed. a large stock pot
heated by an electric burner functioned as the resivoir. a hole was drilled in the side to
accept a sink drain fitting which was potted in with caulk. the spout was another item
from the plumbing isle. the tasteful, minimalist crome pipe was purposely chosen over
the obvious possiblities involving cupids (but only after much discussion). zip ties sealed
the hose to standard sink plubing. a plywood enclosure hid the resivour and hot plate and
provided structure to hold the silver bowls over which the gravy cascaded.

In the photo where we can see the spillway from above, there seems to be a fair amount of splash taking place.... in actual use, how much spillage is there really? There would be obvious health concerns if the wood could be soaked with gravy or other biomaterial
