I am building a 10’ x 10’ pond in my yard. My yard slopes. I dug into the slope to create a level surface. The frame is being made from 4x6x10 PT lumber. The lumber has 6” nails holding each “layer” to the wood below. It is all being held in place by rebar which runs through all the wood. Please see photo (still under construction).
I would like to have shelves at 4” and 8” going all the way around the pond. I only plan to put rocks and plants on the shelves. I thought about pouring concreate or using cinderblocks, but that really is overkill for my purposes. I was thinking of making wooden shelves out of plywood and 2 x 4s and then coating the wood with Pond Shield. This would be anchored on top of the liner so there are no structural issues.
Does this sound feasible or can you think of another way to do this?
Thanks in advance!
