Dear pond interested people!
Here I have posted you a photo-report about a family father who made a swimmingpond all by himself:
Construction of a shuttering - A shuttering allows individual shapes. Helping hands make work easier.

Completion of the concrete works
The basic concrete works are finished now.

Underlayment - The overlapping areas are fixed to prevent them from slipping.

Wrinkle-free installation - if you do it yourself: an installation free from folds and wrinkles is only possible if the liner is laid sheet by sheet on the scene.

Installation of a filter system

I deleted the links to their commercial (advertising) site but let the rest of the post remain because it contains some nice project pictures and shows an unconventional & interesting filtration system. Basically the poster was advertising their membrane product for ponds.
