OKMO Microcosm P71 Mini Pump mounted on a custom wood plinth with custom plumbing.
I had a lot of fun machining up a lot of the metal work and also doing the woodwork and then putting this all together, I have a lot of hours invested in this.
Silver brazing up the three copper pot water return was a fiddly job to tackle, I had an image in my mind after giving it a lot of thought of what I wanted and it worked out better than expected and better still it worked!

Very cool! I love the 3-pot water cascade: a combination of overflow and siphon. And best of all, I am sure it is quite useful, as all such projects are. (making a joke, of course.)

LOL yes, as useful as teats on a bull but fun! and fun to make! Someone has suggested to me a water wheel on the last spout....now that has the tired old brain turning. All the best for Christmas and the New Year.
