Welcome to the official April Wilkerson TH-cam channel. I’m April and I’m the creator of Wilker Do’s. I'm not professional or have any training, so I just pick the project I want to tackle and figure it out step by step. On this channel you will find a variety of content like DIY home improvement, How-To’s, construction and more.
Hi, April! Wow! The stonework looks great! I may just look into that product. Thanks for sharing! Hope you're having a great weekend. Happy Mother's Day to your Mom!🌹
She sees my comments so she will love that. Thanks. :)
Another winner by the Wilkerson Team! The stone was an out of site find- both for you and a project I have coming up. As always, Thanks! and keep doin' what you do so well!
I love the idea of an elevated stock tank deck pool !
I do too! And it was a fun project. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson I think we all want to know more about the pool. Specially the liner. Please.
This is so cool. It reminds me of the pool a friend of mine had when we were kids (in the 70s). Her father had installed a metal stock pond/pool like this at the back of their yard. It was raised higher than the rest of the yard, and he had put cement around it, so it was like an inground pool. I really wish my husband and I were handy and could do projects like this.
Rock farming done right!
Thank you for Sharing. I know it's Sunday & its going to be Wonderful time that is well spent Watching you & your team work. I'm learning something New Done Correctly & Properly & Well thought- out..ALRIGHT 1st to Comment Cool 😊👍🎊🥳🎉
I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Thanks for watching.
April what is the liner product you used for the inside of the stock tank? Love the finished look!
2nd
Loving your design choices and materials. Tell us more about the liner(?) in the stock tank!?! 😎👍
Yeah, I saw water jets on the side like a jacuzzi/hot tub style setup.
I would hope there is some type of liner. The thought of soaking in a galvanized tank elicited warning bells and alarms. It’s always fun seeing what new tools, toys and technologies April is using.
I would love more info on that too!
Cowboy pool, they sell insulated liner you put in the galvanized tank. I had galvanized stock tank swimming pool set up for a couple of years with only small amount of rust years later bc of chlorine we use. Cheaper to buy new stock tank at tractor supply than the liner set ups. Tank was a few hundred lasted five years, then we can repurpose as raised bed planter when we buy new tank. The insulated liner setup from cowboy pools is a couple grand.
Looks great,what a relaxing space. So peaceful.
Looking forward to meeting you, Jimmy and Matt in Australia this weekend.
Awesome! See you soon! Thanks for watching.
Nice! Good seeing you!
Great Work April. Sad to see you weren't at the Makers Central Show in the UK this weekend.
Your new pool, and the stone on the front both look amazing!
Well done, April!
So smart to put a pool on your porch. Nice team work and great tips thanks April 😊
I really appreciate how you’re showing us so many great products that can be used in our own homes and yards. Some might call this a “commercial,” but I’ve already got ideas for the water hydrant (ours need replacing) and the stone!
Yes, people should remember I have always built what I need and want, bringing a camera along to show how I did it, WHAT I used and why, telling about it. It answers people's questions about the item/product. Yet they enjoy the free content I provide. Thank you for seeing it and enjoy my channel. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson Just like Delia says, your promo's don't sound like promo's, just a how-to using a cool new product, and they have me pausing your vids to take notes about them! 😁
Thank you, your video answered all my questions
Respectfully
Awesome! I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for watching.
WOW! The bricks are So COOL! For some reason, stock tank pools are my favorite. Awesome Video April!!! 😃👍🤩
Thanks! Yes, I just love the rustic look. Thanks for always being such a great supporter.
Could you like or tell more about the liner? This is a super cool build!
I like how you did this project. Looks great.Thats a neat stone touse. Really nice that it is so well made and useful inside or outside.
Another asking about the liner ...great job as always!
I always get really good ideas from your videos.
I would be concerned that the plywood wall has a weather barrier on one side, but not on the other, even though both sides are at least partially exposed to the elements, and also has no protection from above. It would be longer lasting if there were a properly flashed water-proofing layer under the pool to act as a roof to the curved wall that the stone attaches to below. I picture water sitting on that top edge of plywood and rotting it away, or getting behind the Typar and doing damage that way.
Well done. Good job. Good girl. Very very very nice idea. Good luck guys
That's just too COOL right there. Awesome addition, just don't dive from the upper deck into it. Thanks for sharing April, will be watching for the other videos to come on the deck build. Fred.
Nice deck. Will code require a railing around the exposed side of the pool?
What kind of code would that be..looks safe and sturdy
Very nice work april
What is the heat/flame resistance of that Evolve Stone? I am looking into options for an outdoor kitchen right now and wondering if this would be suitable for a grill surround.
It's basically plastic. But they also have a variant which has better fire resistance - probably plastic mixed with some additive to inhibit burning.
Waiting to see the pool....
Did you switch from metal to a poly stock tank?
Tank with liner from cowboy pools
@AprilWilkerson you had my attention at nailing rocks...lol. it's coming along nicely.
Do you guys use heat tape or another product to stop outdoor pipes from freezing?
Wow beautiful work! Love it! Have a wonderful weekend 👍👍👍
Thanks! Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
BYOT used that nailed on stone on an indoor project it came out amazing
I bet! It is gorgeous and so easy to install. Thanks for watching.
Your new pool looks great April! The stone is just unreal. Too simple! lol….. thanks for sharing this info!
More of a soaking tub than a “swimming pool,” I really like the “bump out” idea. Keeping the tub off the ground should also reduce your corrosion issues.
Want an easy way to heat it? Mount a coil of plastic irrigation tubing to a half sheet of plywood. Cover with plexiglass. Use a tiny 1/60 hp Grundfos pump and the amount of heat you’ll gather will really extend your season.
Keep the water fresh and clear with an ozone generator. Much nicer, and easier, than chlorine.
What a great idea! If I ever decide to convert it I'll remember this. Thanks for Sharing and for watching.
Saw the Evolve stones first on the Perkins Builder BRos channel, they used it in some of the homes they built. Looks awesome!
I love the look and the ease of installing them. Win win for sure! Thanks for watching.
Wow! Great project, thanks so much for sharing!❤
I am in love with this idea! I dont have a deck, but I def want to elevate my tank!
This came out amazing and I would love to try. My above ground pool is oval. Were these stones bendable to go around the curves?
That’s Awesome April!!!!!! ❤
That looks so great. It also looks expensive. You always do such fun things. Excellent video thank you.👍♥️
And this material is pretty cool I've actually worked on a jobsite with the owner it can also be painted
Awesome! Thanks for Sharing that and for watching.
Same stone you used before I think. Definitely going to be picking some up for my next project
Excellent.
What I miss in the video and also on the website, can one bend them a little bit to angle a curve or do they break easy ?
Thanks for sharing
Did you switch from a galvanized tank to a poly tank? I have poly and prefer it.
I was wondering what you were going to do with that cut out. Great idea 👍🏾👍🏾
Thanks! I love the look!
In the last shot of the pool it looks like you have some type of liner in the stock tank or am I seeing things?
I might have missed this, but how did April waterproof the pool?
Gotta love mom, no matter how old you think you are, you're still a kid! lol "Don't fall off the deck!"
Great video as usual!
Thanks!
Love the stone work!! I am curious about the pool and how you will deal with keeping the water clean and bacteria level good?? Sorry but I'm a clean freak and a non filtered pool scares 😱 me and I grew up swimming in a creek dam.
Nicely done! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
Was there any flex on the stone? Is like to use it on a wall that is slightly concave.
April. You are beautiful and everything you do turns out beautiful. I love your new deck. Hopefully I will get there sometime and we can all sit on your deck, have a cold one. A dip in the pool and whack some balls. Okay, now i'm dreaming. Love and God Bless 🤗💖🙏
Impressive!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
Amazing!
That faux stone looks very realistic.
I wonder how well this would do in Canada. Doesnt seem to be any dealers here, I know they say freeze/thaw cycle, but whats the temp is tested down to?
Nice.
I did not know I needed a stock tank pool until watching this.
Yes! That's what I thought when I started seeing them too! Thanks for watching.
Where did you get pool liner?
What store has the stones that you used ? Not at Lowe’s
So nice!
I've had a pool. Don't want another one. But I must admit yours does look good. Love the "stone" work. the whole deck is really nice. You done good. BTW have you seen the deck and pool Mike Patey is building?
Super video ❤🌹👍👍👍👍
April, come on! Fill us in! You started with a metal stock tank. Then at the end of the video, you either switched to a poly stock tank or put some kind of insert in your metal stock tank. Inquiring minds NEED to know!
I think you could have saved a lot of time on that circle cut out kido. Why didn't you put the stock tank on the deck, trace around the bottom , and then make your cut?
Awesome April! Why the sones called again?
Could you do a short or just add in the video a bit more the senco battery nailer I've had their air guns back when I still did construction but the full battery nailer use to be slow to use when bumping trim or studs. If senco came out with one I guess they are better now
Top demais bom trabalho 😮
Hello, Home Depot sells those stones but only in panels, I cannot find the individual stones like you have in this project, do you mind sharing the name and color so I can looks for it in my area? Thanks
I've left a Link below video description. Click on "Show More" and scroll down to Things I Used. It's called Evolve Stone. I love the look and how easy it was to completely turn the look around. Thanks for watching.
Would the nail make a hole on the tank?!
NICE!
Love it!
Is the stone available in England?
Seems like a cool product! Made of a form of aircrete?
Nope. Polymer. It's deeply buried in the tech docs on their site, but if you dig patiently through it all, you'll find it.
Can you apply it with polyester resin?
Maybe build a castle out of stapled stone veneer.
Sweet, my only wonder is if it’s cost effective?
It's subjective. For some any material would be out of budget's reach, others they have no problem. Also depending on the size of the area could make the difference. Thanks for watching.
Seems like you weren't thinking ahead, you could have designed it to be a hot tub in the winter and the pool in the summer. :o) Clever idea either way.
Very attractive setup. Dare I 'assume' you will be adding filtration to that stock tank to prevent it quickly turning into a biohazard of algae/bacteria?
Did you use stainless steel nails? If not, won’t the heads rust over time and ruin the look of the stones?
🙏
Liner!!! Tell us about the liner, please!!!
With that stone being $20 per square foot, I would use cedar fence pickets.
That would look great! Thanks for watching.
Stingy me would buy the cheapest lumber I could get and shape the slats myself. Maybe put on some fancier finish to make it look more expensive than it really is.
Hey April. Thanks for the recommendation; however, the April23 promo code did not work. I just ordered the intro box from their website and they charged the $18. Happy to pay it but if you are getting credit for orders based on your advertisement, it is not working. Just thought you would want to know.
4:30 what's a "sawl" ?
I'm from Texas and how I talk. Should it bother you, listen with the volume down. Thanks for watching.
No mortar? No slicking, no tooling? No cursing the heavy boxes?
They’ve taken all the fun out of stonework!
@@trishblakely3476 😆👍🏾
Just plastics.
April, I've been watching you for awhile now and you are doing some really nice work. And you seem to know what's going on as well. That's not a slam, but so much crap on You tube with "experts" is far from legitimate. The stock tank was a great idea and a lot less expensive than other options and just flat looks cool😂😂. The stone(?) you used--was there any flexibility in it or did you just cut shorter pcs to fit?? Seemed like a nice mixture of lengths in your application. Look forward to your next video. How's the shop doing. You have quite the set up there as well. Until the next one, Ron
Обживаетесь) когда в гости пригласите?
Heck, I thought she was nailing into the pool.
You could just have inverted the tank and drew a line. Then cut inside the line by X to accommodate the lip?
How does water protection work if there 100+ nails in it?
Looks like it's made from some kind of composite or plastic.
@@OriginalRaveParty yes but the nails are going trough the foils into the wood
@@mmmyke1784 The back of the boards are exposed to the air and hidden from the sun. What little moisture gets into the wood through the nail holes won't cause damage as long as it can diffuse through the wood and get out on the other side. What damages wood, besides the sun, is condensed moisture on the surface in the presence of oxygen - that's what can start mold or bacteria growing. As long as humidity can easily escape the wood, and no rain or direct water falls onto the wood, the wood is safe.
@@a0flj0 thanks!
looks like it has plastic inside liner?
15G nailer even though instructions recommend 16G? Nice to know if accurate.
Really nice stone. But extremely expensive. Specially if you want to cover a big area. Around $1700 per square crazy!!!!
Nothing is cheap, especially these days but everyone's taste and budget is different. Some like driving big trucks, others small cars, some want a large house, others a small, cozy one. Thanks for watching.
@@AprilWilkerson I can see how my comment came off as hating towards you. But it couldn’t be further from the truth. I was just pointing it out. Im in the trades, and I’ve recently had to install something similar myself. All faux stone is super expensive. Great work april l!!
A 700 gallon tank weighs almost 3 tons filled.
Nail-able stone veneer? :o
It's actually some polymer, not stone.
Stone alone costs more than my entire deck.
Pex pipe is not UV stable and should not be installed where exposed to sunlight.
👍
Your new pool, and the stone on the front both look amazing!
Well done, April!
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching.
