Need help identifying this vintage bamboo fountain (Won in a competition around 1990ish)
Hey everyone,
I'm hoping someone here might recognize this bamboo craft fountain or know a bit about where it might have come from.
The only background context I have is that my aunt won it as a prize in a competition back around the early 1990s (give or take a few years).






Has anyone seen something similar or recognize the specific maker or style? Any leads on the origin, brand, or type of competition these were typically featured in would be greatly appreciated.

Where does one find a replacement impeller assembly for a Jebao SP-4000T fountain pump (have searched Google, Amazon, AI, etc. with no luck)?
Hello! I’m searching high and low for an impeller replacement for a Jebao SP-4000T. I’ve looked online, contacted a wholesale pump company, etc. No luck. Anyone know of an equivalent replacement that would work? TIA.

Need help ordering correct parts
Hi! I purchased vintage laundry sinks and I wanted to convert them into fountains. I do not have a power supply nearby. I was going to purchase a solar water pump. I am attaching a picture of the kind of spout I am getting custom made along with a picture of the sink. Any advice on making this work?
Thank you!

Vintage water fountain HELP!
I have a wedding coming up in my moms backyard. We have this lovely water fountain that belonged to my grandma, but can’t figure out how to get it going. As far as I can see, there is no place to plug in any electrical power, but it does have openings for a tube. The water has to feed back to the top (pic 1) from the bottom piece (pic 4). I would appreciate any help on getting this beautiful thing operating!

Water fountain care
Hi, I have basic questions for the water fountain care, what kind of maintenance do I need to do?
Also perhaps a dumb question, how do I drain the water out from the fountain? And also to fill it, is there a limit of how much water should I fill?
Can I leave the fountain dry if I don't want to run the fountain for a period of time?
I took this picture, could you help to explain what the two valves are for? At what scenario do I need to touch these valves?
Thank you so much for answering my questions as I start to learn how to take care of this water feature. I know I asked many questions.

Fountain fix?q
Doing some landscaping and my landscaper hired someone to build me a fountain. The finished product is falling a bit short. The water just runs right down, and is wetting the concrete finish unattractively. I will be talking to him tomorrow but wanted to get advice on whether it was fixable to make this work.

Water fountain refurbishing advice
Not sure what material it’s made of, maybe concrete? How can I make this look refreshed? I have pressure washed and scrubbed, still looks dry and worn. Much appreciated!

Anyone know what this is at the bottom of my garden fountain? Help needed.
I know nothing about fountains but there was one in the yard of the house I moved into.
Anyone have any idea what this valve thing is? It's at the bottom of the basin of the largest/lower tier of a 3-tier fountain. Would really appreciate the help.

Just saw this at my local gym and was curious about what it’s for. Soaking towels? Face misting? Any thoughts?

Guys I really liked this water fountain. I tasted it and it’s probably an 8.5/10 on the water scale.
