oh, that's not out of the question -- but not this year...
when I built the original tiered structure, I designed a waterfall cascading down the middle of it to a stream/pond... that's why the 'steps' going up the middle are like 30" high... I can either make shorter steps or I can put in the waterfall...

I just wrote myself a note in big letters
DON'T FORGET DRAIN HOLE!

I'm going to box a border where this fountain is going, but it needs to be able to get rid of water for two reasons, 1/ standing water gets nasty 2/ if it freezes it will mess things up...
it will basically be a basin this thing will sit in...
project management 101 - think of everything that can go wrong, then think again...
design on the fly...
