Richard, we'd love to see an update on your pool. How you're managing it and some of the unexpected hurdles you're overcoming. Love your channel. Your work smart attitude has really influenced me in my projects in my own backyard.
What an absolutely brilliant video, I’m sick and tired of part 1….part 2… I really enjoyed watching the whole process 👍good luck to you, I hope you and the kids enjoy it for a long time 👌🏼
Thanks for the info. I’m a little disappointed you skipped over the wall collapse. It seemed like a good teachable moment. What did you do differently the second time around? What was the problem the first time?
Yeah it would have been good to include that. Problem was rain not drained away from the cavity between the ground and the wall, AIUI. The way to fix is to make sure the water doesn't flow in there, so catch it in a separate drain around the hole, or cover in a way that it won't flow there but in the swim section, instead. Also it's good to work in a time where you have smaller amounts of precipitation, like early spring.
It all turned out so beautiful, not only the pond, but also the buildings in the new paint.
Thanks for sharing Richard! A cold swim a day keeps the doctor away ;)
Awesome Rich! 😍 Thank you so much for making this. 🏊
So beautiful thank you for the detailed video it should come in handy when I get to build mine ❤
Thanks for taking the time! Looks of good details- helping lots in our own planning process.
WOW! Thanks for this video. I really appreciate the quality and information. I'm hoping to break ground on our natural pond later this year. 😉
I'm thinking of creating a dammed pond in a small gully in NZ so lots of good ideas here, thanks. I hope to use bagged biochar in my system to help pull/recycle nutrients. This has proven v.successful in other natural ponds in NZ.
Richard, great planning, wonderful narration of the video. You have incredible talent, keep it going. Enjoy the pool!
Beyond beautiful! Crazy. Well done.
Any chance you could provide an update? Any changes or upgrades you’d make for filtration system? Thank you for sharing!
It is a beaut! Does it have a new water in/ old water out /overflow system?
Awesome project!! Do I see correctly that you didn't use a concrete base for the brick walls? If that isn't needed, that's a great way to save some time and money on the build. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Richard, we're building a natural duck pond at the moment (bigger than it sounds), but our soil doesn't hold the water. I watched your video, but couldn't quite catch the names of the underliner and liner that you used? We live in Norway, maybe you have tips for a good (under)liner? I thought you said something geo liner ? 1mm thick. Would be helpful to know more about the ones you used! Thanks! :)
Another quality piece of work...
What a nice work! How do you clean the swimming zone?
It seems that they did not use a foundation under the brick wall. That is going to be a big problem and potentialy dangerous. Never the less, this is an inspirational video.
bravo, projet très inspirant...
Can this be made without the concrete block wall? It seems to take the natural out of the natural pool?
Awesome! There must be a sauna nearby!
Awesome work
Nice work Richard
Is it possible to create this kind of pool at hot , desert , water scar area. My area is Jodhpur, Rajasthan(India).
Solid! Insulation is such that the pool isn’t too cold to swim in? I’m thinking about doing the same thing, but 25m long, with walls for flip turns.
I think it's debatable and depending on location. Where I live the deeper ground is usually warmer in winter than the surface. It may warm up quicker in summer though. I'm doing mine with PIR sandwich panels as the walls, but mostly to save cost and time. The insulation is an added bonus. I'm not insulating the sand floor.
This is your FIRST pond?
awesome build!!
I am taking you on your offer:
I would like to visit and get to know Sweden. What will the cost be for my stay and what can I do @ your area?
😊
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I would like to build this, but I would not hide any large rocks under the water level. someone WILL die, diving into a rock. it will probably happen at night, with visitors, after a couple of beverages.
I guess that depends on your kind of guests!
@@regenerativeagriculture I hope I'm wrong.
Once the aquatic plants begin to filter impurities and pull nutrients from the pond I imagine the water quality will remain pretty clear.
Natural selection! Lol
Project cost? I was estimated ~10,000$ just for the pond liner (in the US)
Clue is in the title
Update pls
Amazing!
There’s a jar of pennies buried under the porch.
Dude, you just need a hot tub on that deck on the side then you're golden.
There was a plan for that, and a cube sauna. Might be moving to a new farm soon, so have paused. I think you'd love one of these! Fun to build too
I really hope they didn’t bury that frog, 😢
