Fountian Pond




Our community garden is going to try something really different. They need to build a pond. It started out as just needing a collector for water that spilled off the fountain onto the ground. We thought about all kinds of solutions rubber ponds, concrete. Then I got the brilliant idea of making one out of stainless steel and covering the outside of the pond with local fieldstone.
It just so happens we have several local companies that work with stainless. Liking the idea when approcached they carried it to the next level suggesting that instead of a round shape it be formed in the shape of a local lake. Here is a rough sketch of what we are thinking about. I will post as to how it goes.
