I had made a similar design of this copper bamboo fountain... much smaller than this one... slightly different design attributes as well. The sound and sheeting effect of the water is very soothing... sounds a bit like crickets...
The fountain is just inside the entrance to the home. To the right is a small wet bar which was clad with hand hammered sheet copper (what I refer to as copper "bark"). To the left is the dinning room.
The fountain is made entirely of copper pipe:
3", 2", 1" and 1/2", all type "L".
The copper bamboo sections are TIG welded with solid copper wire to make the joints.
The basins are folded single pieces of 16 oz. sheet copper (they do NOT have any welding, etc.... all one piece).
The bar is clad with relief hammered 20 oz. sheet copper.
