Welcome aboard Johnny, and Like others, thank you for your years of service. Take each step one by one. make sure and take the time to ask a day or two before a install for pointers, be sure and check Youtube for videos before attempting by written instructions, and be sure and try as hard as possible to do it right the first time. I can tell you that almost every ponder here would make a change for the better if they could. Some just can't be done unless it's a total rebuild. Go as big as your area and liner will allow. believe me, every gallon counts. Would love to see some pics of the pond. or should I say soon to be pond. LOL

hmmmmmm is it too late? thinking....no refund! After digging the hole, how hard can it be now! No scaring, only thing that would have scared me was flying bullets.
Trust me I'm going to ask lots of question.

Welcome koi69fish, It looks like you will have a really nice pond. You might want to post your build on "pond construction" and people can pipe in with their ideas as you put it all together. I assume you are going to have mostly koi the way you are building your ledges. Remember it takes a while for a pond to cycle so once it is set up don't be tempted to put a lot of fish in right away.
