woah...that is So Cool!....but..problem, with water feature is..look at that rust it's already got, means the metal won't make for a good water container.....it will need to be coated in ..something...non toxic...........have you considered turning it into a really cool firepit? Lot less work!
Sand it, paint it with a metal paint, put clear coat, maybe turn it upside down, put a hole in center, find a rod that u could run a hose thru to male a mushroom waterfall!!?
That is way super cool! I'd leave it as is, spray on a clear rust protector on the outside then try maybe Flex Seal in clear on the inside. You could run water into it and have it overflow or have a bubbly fountain thing inside it. That's an awesome gift!
Thanks already have the fire pit and actually my brother made one like this in to fire pit no the rust is not as bad as it looks will have to be sanded the edge grinder and painted inside and out I am getting a solar pump just loking for paint ideas and decore I am trending on nautical since I have a lot of that stuff sea shells for the bottom so forth thank you
thats pretty much the idea it is more solid than it looks just servise rust it has the handles on the side we will sand it grind the edges paint in and out then bury and level it add a solar pump the ideas I am lookin for are paint colors and themes I could go nautical add koi or I could go sec roll tide lol just asking for some artistic input here ladies and gentelmen
great idea.... you might have to put a pond liner on the inside... to protect it from rusting... but they are readily available at a home improvement store... then just do a decorative edge... plumbing it would be easy too
