I want to put in a new pond but I need to know what size liner to get.My pond is going to be 12ftx8ft and 3ft deep.What size liner do I need to get to fit this hole

Here's a great resource to figure that out depending on the shape of your pond:

I always plan a little extra, just in case. Then I don't trim until a day after filling. I have found many uses for the trimmed leftovers.

I wouldn't buy the liner till you dig the hole.Crap happens! Then do as above.

More great advice. Sometimes your dig does not always go as planned.

Thank you all for all the advice

One last thought....If you go a little large and fold in or hide the extra around the edges for a while, you'll have a second chance at adjusting later. It's amazing what you'll think of after a few months of fiddling and wish you had a second chance. I find "ponding" very fluid and changeable...

I've done just that with a small pond, wanted it a bit deeper on one edge, so just uncovered my hidden liner and did it!
