What did you use? Tell us how you did this. How long did it take you?
The fountain took me about 20 hours to build, the recent improvements including removing the bottom pool took me about 30. Every day after work 4:30- dark. The hardest part was tunneling the wires and hoses thru the tube that goes underground into the center pool.

Nice yard display. Wish I was that handy... Now you have to add colored lights. And a large sphere in the background.

Thanks, I will keep posted on some of my other projects int he area, some old and some upcoming.

The colored lights are already theyre LOL. I am thinking of bulding a half sphere and making it into an overhang. Theyre will be a vine tunnel that transforms into a light tunnel at night, if Im ambitious enough I will make a city.
Don't forget to play the Innoventions music loop between the fountain and sphere! :)
Its funny that you should mention that LOL. I used to use the whole loop between shows but wanted to use my own loop. I still use Papillion and the rest I made up on my own. I also used to use Epcots Fountain music. My laser show used some of the old Illuminations music, im still debating if I should run it or not this year.
What music is that?
I used a song from a video called Planet Earth, the Secret.

Theres the plastic replica of the spaceship earth that you can get for the monorail play sets. Would make a nice addition until you build a better sphere.

Ha, sounds good, theyre is a black and white globe if you look at a different angle. I used to be pro Epcot and use all Epcot music and had a mini sphere but decided to make it my own. The sphere turned into the black and white earth lol.
