Fountains

I was wondering if any of you knew where to find info on making your own small rock fountain for coffee or end tables. I saw a magazine with a how-to but can't find it....

I saw this How To for a "Table Fountain" on instructables.



Another guy built a cool water fountain for a cat (which would double as an indoor fountain).

I like the idea but I would use a solid color basin with flat, layered stones. I wonder what size pump one would need...

Ok, so tell me what you think of this... A shallow (2-4" deep) platter around 15"-18" wide, with smallish stacked slate and misc rubble scattered, plus a couple amaryllis bulbs and some moss. I'll draw a picture if you have trouble thinking of what it would look like.
