I want to build a volcano fireplace around an outdoor fireplace insert. I will use heavy screen molded into shape with colored mortar over it. The fireplace chimney would exit the basin at the top and the basin will contain water that follows channels down the volcano. I will use fireglass in the channels to simulate lava and the water will converge into a sheet waterfall falling in front of the fireplace opening. The waterfall would fall into a pit of fireglass which would be pumped back to the top. I know someone here has some ideas for this project. I found some stainless cascade waterfalls online but dont know where to look for the fireplace insert. Mahalo
