[QUOTE="dannyboy, post: 102043, member: 484"] Here was a project that I was honored to be asked to make happen. This was actually to be just a plain old water catchment area that new shoping centers are forced to put in to catch rain water run off. The owner asked me to assist in making it look better, and had the idea of a water wheel as part of the design. He also had a property that he was selling that had a gazzebo and a bridge that were no longer needed, and had them extra if I wanted to use them. So this is kinda what we built. Really nice to have all the heavy construction equipment available to do some of the big stuff. Unfortunately, when a lot of the work is done by those that dont have a clue, you have the dam being two feet lower than the ground and gazeebo. The rocks inside of the pond weighed anywhere from 20 to 28 tons, and the rock with the water coming out of it is totally natural. All we did was find it and clean out the dirt. d [ATTACH=full]98[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]99[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
