Interesting, but it only lifts the water the distance of R (radius of the circle) at the very most... allowing for the diameter of the inner pipe and the depth of 'scoop' into the water, maybe a couple of feet. Gotta be a better way! Execution is very cool, though. I love to see old tech made new.

A lot of these water wheels are simply to get water from a standing source (think small lake or shallow well) to some container/ditch.

Hmmmm... a welded-in sink you say? That's stunning, and no cracks or crevices for crumbs and whatnot to get stuck in.

Yeah... We make all three types... Top mount with a flange, undermount and integrated...
In three materials... Stainless Steel, Copper and pure Zinc... Whatever the clients wife dictates.... -

Yep. I've had a few undermounts, but they still have a line where the sink attaches to the bottom of the counter. This is kinda like the Corian integrated sinks where they are epoxied and routed smooth to the counter, except it is WAY COOLER!
