---Now leaks all fixed ---running two pumps for those that want to know a 9000lts ph [main] to uv-bio fishmate pressured filter exit via waterfall plus 3500lts ph skimmer which keeps water like a sheet of glass, this also exits via waterfall, with a divert to feed water bar, this gives rain affect and freshen water at far end of pond. uploading some more photos--

Very cool looking, never saw a set up like that one and works wonderfully flowing hither and yon :twisted:

 

[whiskey]

few more plus one of last winter

Looks pretty easy to take care of your pond w/ all your equipment and easy access to the pond area. Water is nice and clear. Neat photo of the ice on the pond and the waterfall keeps that hole open good.

Nice pics Whiskey. It is obviously you put a lot of planning into your setup.

 

[addy1]

That sure is nice, thanks for all the photos of your set up and glad you got your leaks fixed.

latest update, taking out rain bar and water butt, using space to install a breastshot waterwheel, middle feed water flow with water shute on exit into pond, wheel size 4ftx 16" wide[ 1220x405 ]. I got 59"lenght width 20" [1500x508 ] so needs to be exact. wheel will move clockwise. been sorting space and rerouting guttering and water butt today. Hoping later to run power off wheel, to run all electic outdoors.

Keep us posted!

Yeah will be fun to see how it turns out. You can post pics of how you build it if you like :lol:

 

[whiskey]

hi all, today i drew some rough rods[plans] to get proportion balanced, found some "H" section which looks promising to use as spokes, just got to sort out centre "boss" [ centre hub ], iron shalft,2 pillow bearings. The boss will take the longest as it houses the centre shalft, spokes and will need shaping first, then mortising out, to allow the spokes to fit.

hi latest update started making the "Boss" have uploaded four photos, things may seam rough but items not finished but it will give you all an idea on construction. more to follow when time allows.
