the next stage , cover the wood in wire netting that is used in the building trade to put concrete scree onto walls and then splatter wet cement on it by throwing it at the wire and when dry put 3 coats of gloss paint on it then a final coat of varnish on the walls and resin on the pool area.

looking good, cant wait to see it all up and running, what is the filter you are using for the pools, im considering a filter as i just cant keep the water clean for more than an hour, they all like to mess in it asap

i,m using a fluval 2 external that i had spare from fish keeping , but if i was buying one i would go for the RENA X 1or 2 or 3 starting price is about £80 for the x-1 there a good strong filter ( i've got one on my fishtank and it pumps the water up 5' back in the tank )
