The Sprinkler Flow Distributor

 

Its a little hard to see, but this is a small area lawn sprinkler hooked up to the fountain pump.  The flow is turned up to slightly more than the 2.5gpm setting.

 

While this more for fun than anything, I wonder if there isn't some way that actually works to distribute water by a sprinkler like mechanism?

 

Judging by the drop pattern on the pond, it does a fairly good job of distributing the water except in the are right by the sprinkler itself.  The first layer of glazing would have to be far enough up to allow the sprinkler like device to work.

 

The little piece of slate is just to keep the sprinkler from walking away.
