hey guys,
heres my pond that ive been working on the past coulpe of weekends, ill be filling her up tomorow, so fingers crossed, the dimensions to it are, length:1500mm, width:800mm, depth:400mm, ive used GP cement and sydney sand for all the cementing and for the flooring, i also used chicken wire to hold it all together, for the waterproofing ive used bondell and silasel mixed with water and GP cement, i painted the waterproofing on with a paintbrush aswell, ive just used brick for the outside and render them for strength and for the finishing touches i will be putting sandstone along the top and making a waterfall on the end, i also will be adding great plants, so hopefully all will go will. here are some pics.
this is the first pic i took, we decide to remove all the cement on the floor because we hadnt put any chicken wire down,
and now here are the photos after finishing cementing and waterproofing,
and now the equipment i used
ill be posting the final product when im finished, post your comments and tell me what you think,
