start to my diy 480 gallon timber pond (not finished)

[midnight]

quietly beat the wood together for the filter.
"not so quiet,my girl heard me inside,oops"
no cops yet
going to plywood it tomorrow "today now i guess.lol"

when building by pond, the cops where called...ohh, about 6-7 times. every other weekend they would call, and the one week that I took off work to do it the caps where called three times, and everytime i quoted by-laws that allowed me to work and they left, everytime!...

You i dont think will be as lucky since its what after midnight where your at?

but it looks awsome i didnt notice the bench till someone noted it and might i say ... $2 a timber i hate you, my 2x4x8's are $2.25... you suck, why did you have to say that? lol, im over it, looking good.

my filter box is 4'X5'X6'tall... i think your is looking good, good call in incorperating it.

4,5,6 foot?pic?pond size?whats inside something like that?lol

 

[midnight]

cut these top boards and all the wood is cut

in the pic with 2 pieces of wood,thats the leftovers.
thats why its all 8x4x2
no clue where those 2 came from tho

i need opinions
theres 4 pics,2 with some overhang,2 with no overhang.
what way should i do it?

and some pics of the filter,wood is all cut for it.

and a pic of the overflow,it will be different of course then this.

and a pic of the seat,not bolted,and the wood holding it up will be gone.lol

DAMN! that's cheap as hell! it's like 3 bucks a board foot by me!

midnight, what are you going to do to keep those braces from digging into the ground?

 

[midnight]

no digging,maybe you didnt see the wood going at a 45 degree angle?

 

[BIGgourami]

oh, it's not nailed in yet. i thought the vert one was for support.

 

[Euge]

looking good buddy but what the hell is the overhang for?

 

[midnight]

covers up the liner and bolts plus gives it a finished look

 

[Chill-FAN]

looking awesome man!!!

I'd say go with the over hang, it creates an illusion that the pond wall is even thicker than it already is.

i agree midnight it's a great looking finish!!!

now i would like to see how you aproach getting the liner in there!!!

cant wait to see it done man great diy so far
