I wanted to try out a waterfall idea. I wanted a waterfall that had a small pool of water. I needed a container or a base to create the small pool.

Started with a steel Air Compressor
tank, cut it in half. |

Then added legs to allow overhang on the pond
(maybe counterbalance with bricks on the back side) |
After making the basic waterfall structure, I coated the inside surfaces with spray on truck bed liner. I wanted to remove the metal-to-water contact points.

Then add plumbing, and a pond.... |
I will be updating the flag stone and waterfall rocks in the near future. I put this together with what we had in the yard to see if we liked it. The concept is good, so now it is time to find some flagstone.
