        Building a water feature Sign In/Join 
        posted
        I am building a water feature out of a 1000 year old cypress stump and am trying to figure out how to attach smaller stumps to it to make the ponds to catch water. How can I do this without messing with the structual integrity of the stump. and make it look like it is just growing among the smaller stumps.

        Have you thought about installing a bilge pump corded into one of the stumps with pan with a screen over it and rocks on top using a return hose back to the pump......Bill
