Built a 10ft by 10ft pond in 3 days,
 
A lot of you might not be interested but I've just finished building a big pond in my parents back garden, took 3 days, me and a mate done it after my dad gave up after 5 mins. First pond I've ever built and the hardest part was the digging by hand.

Really nice that - you a bit handy with the tools? Looks like a quality job, nice its elevated.

Cheers mate, I'm no pro by any means but I like to give things a go, the pond liner wasn't easy to put in but got there in the end. We was going to make it from bricks but we thought better of it lol. Anyway I think the sleepers look nice, problem was my dad ordered 8 ft sleepers so I had to make cuts on every side which was a nightmare.

Nice looking job :doubleup:

Moley_WRX 18-08-2014 07:55 PM

Very nice, but should have turned it into a hot tub!!!

Banstead Stig 18-08-2014 08:28 PM

Looks excellent.

Top job that.

Once my little boy is older I'm planning something similar!

Cheers guys, must admit I was quite impressed myself, was thinking of hot tub Gary but my dad loves his fish, he's got a 7 ft marine tank in his front room 2 tanks in his dining room and now the massive pond so the hot tub was a no go, you should do it Banstead sting, it's quite high of the ground so your little one will be completely safe mate.yes Ian it has a massive 15,000 lph pump connected to a massive canister filter behind it.
