Great job Matt, very neat & tidy as you’re working your way through it all.
Keep going buddy. 😎👍🏻

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Phil, nearly there 👍

[@CoopersKoi]

You might want to support the moving bed more, the weight of the water might put a lot of stress on the area around the wheels. Don't want them breaking through.
Nice update 👍

[@koicentralofficial]

Yeah looking at putting some timber under there 👍

[@keepingitkoi]

Looking good bud glad you double checked the drum height would have been a nightmare if you glued all that up then found out 😂 great work 👍

[@koicentralofficial]

Thanks Jamie. Yeah credit to you mate. I haven't a clue why I didn't clock it when you mentioned it before. I think the bubble in my spirit level must have been faulty 😬 thanks again matey 👍

[@keepingitkoi]

@Koi Central haha 😄 need a new bubble 🫧 🤣 honestly mate glad you got it sorted 👍

[@Fred-n-Seb]

That clay looks like a tough dig . Coming on nicely though

[@koicentralofficial]

Thanks, yeah it's horrible stuff. I don't want to be doing that again in a hurry 😩 👍

[@scrag68]

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Craig, hitting it hard this week 👍

[@TelfordKoiPond]

Coming on a treat😊👍. Looks well thought out and executed . Looking forward to seeing the next update 😊👍

[@koicentralofficial]

Thanks Phil, yeah I've been trying to stick to a plan but hit a couple of hurdles every now and then but I'm getting there 👍

[@AndysKoiPuddle]

Excellent Matt, its really getting there now.
Looking forward to the next few updates, as it could see big progress.

[@AndysKoiPuddle]

@@koicentralofficial Haha, yeah I’ll bet you can’t. Looks like its gonna be a great size mate… 👍🏼

[@Crazyforkoiandgoldfish]

This is my next year job 😅
I want to have a bottom drain

[@koicentralofficial]

100% go for it. The bottom of the pond is pretty much spotless, it does a brilliant job 👍

[@simonshears5182]

😂 No .!!!! You’ll need the whole packet 😂 Or skimmer will work 😅 Looking 👀 good KCentral👍🏻

[@koicentralofficial]

😬 Are you on about the crackers Simon? I thought you just chucked 2 or 3 in 😅 seems to be working anyway 👍 not going to bother with a skimmer on the temp pool, hopefully they will be out of there in the next couple of weeks 🤞

[@martynskoipondandgarden4581]

its all trial and error matt but your getting there buddy keep up the good work mate cheers martyn 👍👍

[@koicentralofficial]

Thanks Martyn 👍

[@johnwillis3646]

That bottom drain doesn’t look like the liner type it doesn’t seem to have the ring of holes for the flange ?

[@koicentralofficial]

Hi John, it's all good mate, you have to drill the holes yourself for the flange plate to fix to. Bit of a joke considering how much it cost 🤔👍

[@LeTwistedOne]

Cracking update KC bruva 👍👍👍🧁
You do realise you could've gotten away with 1 less 90 on the bottom drain line bruva 💯🧁👍👍👍

[@koicentralofficial]

Cheers Vince 👍 I do now you've just said that 🤣 oh well it's under a load of concrete now 😎 Looools 🤣👍
