building a concrete water tank, fish and natural swimming pool
stage one
The pond wall in the ground is a double layer of bricks, coated with plaster, built about two decades ago to house a portapool
stage two
two months ago the wall in the ground is extended upward with a single layer brick wall, plastered, measured and a liner ordered
stage three
we decide to throw a concrete base. the soil is stamped down , and a channel cut for the bottom drain which is cemented in place
stage four
Next day the guys covered the the bond bottom with wire mesh and Marc (contacts below) cast the bottom. We hired a concrete mixer as we had to do a cubic meter plus of concrete in one day with just three of us. Stephan and I carried the delivered sand and stone from the street to the back garden. Our furry friend lay under the machine until it started to roar and rumble. Ethan helped his dad with water.
