JAPANESE DEER SCARER { SHISHI ODOSHI }

A bamboo water feature incorporating a Japanese Deer Scarer - we had to make a coiled rope mat to muffle the sound down a bit as the "nodding donkey" hit the stones - the raised bed contains a two-foot diameter tub containing the pump to cycle the water and the whole thing produces a very soothing and relaxing sound - we sprayed some of the pebbles gold and its a nice contrast that some of them are dry and some are wet - we sprayed some small sppotlights gold to match and as you can see it looks great at night

That’s the best sounding tippler on TH-cam imo & I’ve watched a few, I’m going to try & build something similar. Thank you

[@paulasheba100]

thanks glad you like it

[@pegmarmn2587]

lovely installation - beautiful sound. Thanks for sharing!

Can I get this on a 2 hour loop❤

[@cmiller8423]

Very interesting build, I like the features and needed inspiration for my own "Odishi" I am building a zen garden in my front flower bed and this is going to be an important feature with it so I am excited to see how this works

[@paulasheba100]

glad I could be of help if you do similar to me it's worth lining the bamboo with some kind of sealant that you would put on the roof or fibreglass as they tend to expand and contract and you will get leaks

[@CaptainJackGabo]

Hi how did you make for the features incorporating ?
Thanks you and very good shishi odoshi ;)

[@paulasheba100]

Just bought bamboo poles and then cut out the holes recommend you put plastic liner or fibreglass inside as it will expand and contract with the weather and crack

[@verrettjared]

Where can I buy bamboo for a project like that? The fountain pieces?

[@paulasheba100]

We shaped all the bamboo ourselves

[@benquinney2]

I’m scared

[@suraj98222]

Why does one need to scare a deer?

[@paulasheba100]

This originated many years ago in the east, it was used in the paddy fields to keep the deer from eating the plant shoots

[@pegmarmn2587]

Today it would be to discourage the deer from using one's Hosta as salad bar.
