Nice one Dunc, looks like you have been having fun in there mate !

Has that lot all got to go in skip or you just going to bury it where it lays?

hi all

first that tool is well worth the 50 quid it packs a good old punch i got the bruise to vouch for it , and comes with a chisel and three of the most comon SDS raw plug drills the they go through concrete like butter the only thing i have filled the gear box up with grease but it warns you to check every 5 hours well pleased good old screwfix

last im just burying the lot there, there may be a smaller pond on top for dare i say lilly's and a few goldfish and trust me no filter just a central water feature

to tell the truth i cant work out where the likes of mikey boy and others are trying to take the hobby it will end up and elitest hobby, already if you want a filter off mikey you need 5-7K in your hip pocket i think he will rue the day he started down this avenue this is crazyness

where as me im off in totally the opposite direction not a hint of japan in sight! i intend to get the whole thing built for less than 500 quid and that includes the inhabitants and english country manor pond for me

Hi Dunc,

I did wonder how long you would let them wreak the garden

Hi Duncan

You are doing a grand job there and i bet it is helping to get out some pent up agression. Nice to hear you talking of still having a pond, I started with a goldfish pond, which incidentally was my mothers and now I have the goldfish pond and the Koi pond Progress reports often please
p.s there is nothing wrong with goldfish especially when you buy one and it turns out to be a benigoi

[Koi Man Dave]

Great piece of kit worth £50 of anyones money, couple of the guys in work have them and say the same as you Duncan, they use them going through the floors in tower blocks and they do the job. cheaper than the Bosch 24 volt ive burnt two of those out so far. may ivest in one of those myself.

[Duncan]

all done and dusted , decided on no pond

Hi Dunc,

You made short work of that mate and looks a nice job and i think you cracked it with the weather and got it all done just in time

Wow Duncan - what a change! Well done and shame the weather's just changing! Glad the SDS solution worked out ok!
