Lewis pond

Here's my pond build from scratch, the dimensions are 6ft x 6ft and around 4ft deep. Learnt everything along the way! Still a few finishing touches to do but it's a start. Already working on the Mrs into letting me build a bigger one.

Thanks for checking out my build.

Great start, once you're addicted to ponds, you'll want to expand.

Think I already want to expand!

Very nice. I can't believe after all that hard work you would want to do it again. After I built my pond I realized there were some changes I wanted, but I am too lazy to start over from scratch.
By the way, I love your fence too.

What material is that liner?

 

[Foxy93]

Similar to tarpaulin got a double layer of it, does a pretty good job. Doubt would use again if I upgraded though. Not that it's bad was trying to save a little money at the time.

 

[morewater]

Never, ever cheap out on the liner. It's the most important part of the pond. Firestone 45mil EPDM is the only liner you should ever use.

 

[Foxy93]

Wasn't a major cheap, more of an alternative with it been double thickness. Will last me long enough till I upgrade the pond.
