Thanks again. Prim, I used 2-part epoxy to glue the lid on, the brand I used sets up in about 5 minutes, but I left it to cure for a whole day before I removed the little block of wood that I used to keep it propped open at that angle. I think that other people who've made these have used other adhesives, maybe GE II, I'm not sure. ** edited to add: another adhesive that was suggested is called E6000.
What a unique idea - I never would have thought of it. I do like the color and the glass really looks like water coming out.
