Hi Kevin, it looks loads better definitely finishes it off and it's always a winner when you get free stuff, your accident with the workbench is definitely something I've done myself when concentrating on the job, but mine was cutting a draw front with jigsaw when fitting second hand kitchen, thankfully had spare draw front lol, stay safe and keep the videos coming.
Rob.
Well done Kev, nice job mate. Looking forward to seeing the babies in it. Have a good one buddy, stay safe & well.
Nice one kev
A job well done and cheap and it also great
Nice neat job Thanks for filming
Nice work mate. Just about to start mine. What size screws and hinge type were you using?
Cheers
VERY GOOD
Cheers Richard. Thanks for watching
This has re inspired me to think about my ibc tank 👌👍
@@AKoiEnthusiast it looks lovely m8, I need to start making mine look nice to I've learned a bit about how to keep water 👌👍
It caught me out. I only insulated the two sides and front but when I just moved it, I turned it 180 Degrees and had to insulate the back. It has 25mm Kingspan all round and then 3 rolls of Gaffer Tape to wrapped round it all.
@@AKoiEnthusiast I've got to do mine losing so much heat last few days
@@progressivepondkeeping Leon, You will notice a difference and it will be worth the effort. It will help with keeping the temperature stable to
@@AKoiEnthusiast cheers mate 👍
Looks great, out of interest how have you fixed the shower so it floats above?
It is fitted on two angle brackets that I made.
That looks great, what size is your main pond?
Thanks for watching - Check the Description out above for every item seen in the Video's. 2,250 UK Gallons
Can you/have done a diy baki shower vid?
Was appreciating the video until I noticed the chesterfield top, the Mansfield in my blood kicked in, jokes aside cracking idea but would look better with some yellow and blue next to it 😂😂
What a massive coincidence I've found the only Mansfield fan in the country and he's on youtube. lol This could be the longest thread going if we both get started. Take note there were four different Spireite tops too that's one more than stands at Fieldmill. Cheers for watching and commenting mate. Stay safe and stay up please
@@AKoiEnthusiast hahaha yes indeed it would be a very long thread if we got started... I'm wishing you come back up to be honest it's not as fun without the tasty games we have, I think we will stay up despite the bad start we've had... you too mate take it steady 👍
What is the height of the tote from ground to where you cut it?
Cheers for watching Dylan. I am not sure of the actual height (until I get home) but I cut it on the top frame. (See previous Video)
Can I ask how big are those tanks in feet and inches please not metric thank you
Just Google ibc tote. I'm using one as a fry tank as well. Not this elaborate. Just 2 sponge filters. And a slow fr sh water drip. Drilled a hole at the 100 gallon mark so the old water can run out. My koi are growing fine!
Note to self it’s not the first time I done it 🤦🏼♂️
