MY KOI POND RUN DOWN
(Coming Soon)
Thanks again JAMES THE KOI WHISPERER
Thank ya mother for the rabbits!!!!
James you have come a loooooobg way bro! I’m picking up what your putting down!!! Love the content!!!!! I always enjoy your vids especially when ya have a bad day! Keep crack’n on! As you would say!!!
Good to see the koi 👍
James, if you able to cap off your 4 " bottom drain mains and fill them with water it will prevent buoyancy and further help prevent any movement when setting the base.
👍seeing what your doing! Ace to see the koi.
My opinion 6x1 is ample ballest to sand. (its not engineered Drawings) 3x1 is a waste of materials. (Cement the most harmful 1 ton made is 1 ton carbonmaocid) 🤔
James the cleaner is a acetone based. It cleans and gives u very good adeason. Don't forget don't breath in it damages your brain cells lol. I love it.
Mixer i have you can borrow. I sure someone in Devon would lend you one 😉
Great job so far 👍👍👍thanku mother for the 🐇🐇....🐓🐓 dinner cant wait to see it completed
Thanks for showing the stars of the show the Koi. Doing well pal keep cracking on.
Have you considered an option to purge your bottom drains? You will be surprised with can build up in the pipes even with a drum filter. Looking great, can't wait till the next installment.
Yup that’s worrying me too ... doesn’t seem to be a plan for purge valves.
@@wishitwasallflat201 I will not need them I will explain why have I got to bottom drains it will be explained one line will purge the other I got a idea it’s the new way of koi ponding
@@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123 I was going to ask about purging so look forward to your explanation as it's something I wish I had done, putting in a purge. Cheers.
Nice one, another buisy day, feet up now.
We would recommend a membrane James so the ground doesn't pull out the water from the concrete. On point as usual boi
Well In James keep the hard work going an thank the mother for the rabbits lol 😆😀
You're sum man for one man you are really going to enjoy this new pond brilliant mate brilliant 👏
Glad you showed your fish and they all are doing well, It’s all the the measurements that take time I’m sure your walls will go up quickly 🙏🐟🐟🐟🙏
Great job James, onwards and upwards now
Brilliant work James good work thum up for me
I could watch these all day😁 well done
A real warrior !!!
👍👍👍😍
Really nice update. Nice to see the koi too. Keep well.
You are doing a great job with this pond mate,but no one mentions your wife in the comments for all the help and support she as contributed,so a big 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍to her
Yea she is a Diamond
Ready for the base you was lucky with the weather that day mate all looking good proper job
Looks like its going to be a excellent pond I cant wait to see it all done really looking forward to the filter house side 👍👍
Another great update keep it up🍻
To help hold your pipe work down when doing the concrete pour, fill the pipe work with water,
Put water in the pipes before you concrete 👍
One tip, make sure to put tape over the bottom drain screw holes because that can get dirt in them. Very hard to clean out.
It’s been done
Great progress James me lad 💪💪🔥👈 yeah the weather can mess you up abit mate your well on the way now once you get the concrete slab in it's onwards and upwards 👌👌 you haven't stopped mate but hard work pays off , enjoyed the vid great job 👍👍👍👏.
Have a look at Tool Station for tool. Normal well priced cheaper than B&Q
just a recommendation. it's a good practice to install a 4 in conduit pipe to put the electric, gas, water pipes inside of it instead of cementing directly on them, that way you have a large conduit to pull things to the filter house in the future and able to replace/upgrade if need too.
Great content as always James, can't wait for the next one 👍👍🐇🐇🐤🐤🐟🐟
Looking forward to you doing the concrete base! I’ve got mine to do, I’m crapping myself....
James if your going to bring the services into the filter house up through the floor it would be good practice to put them in a duct and not concrete directly around them and I would recommend putting a polythene membrane down below the concrete, you don’t want the soil suck all the water out of the concrete before it sets naturally.
Carry on with the vids I look forward to them each week👍
All going well mate. Soon be time for the concrete pour. Make sure you will the drains with water aswell as stacking blocks on them. Don't want the pipes floating through the concrete. You wouldn't think they would move now you've cemented them but you would be surprised. Keep up the good work 👍
Done it by hand it’s in mate
@@JamesTHEKOIwhisperer123 nice. Forgot you film these a week ahead. Look forward to seeing it. Bet that was hard graft doing that all by hand
Cracking job mate, so many wil bel grateful for you sharing these video when they think about building there own pond, will you be adding pp fibers to your concrete base?
Have you thought of filling the bottom drains and pipes with water for the concrete pour, that'll help to weigh them down will it not
Nice one mate soon have the base down 👌👍
Your cracking on James we managed to mix 4 and half ton for our base on saturday
I did the same lol 😂
would you and Mrs. whisper consider doing a cooking video once a month were you share protips on choosing the right cut of meat and how you cook it. also, demonstrate your famous receipes
Screwfix do a builders set of tools buddy think there around £15 ideal for your job..👍
soft-handled trowel set 6 pieces £14.99
Hi James it's looking good mate 👍.
Thank you! Cheers!
James you did not test the bottom drains for leaks after glueing them together as it would be bad if they leaked on a joint.
Fingers x then what would you have done to test ? Filing them with water don’t work
It’s the wait of water in the pond that makes them leak but I haven’t got a pressure test kit so I put shit loads of glue on
should put t pieces instead of 90's when going to the drums and bring the pipes after the t pieces up passed the pond level so you can jet the drain lines as you won't be able to purge the drains with a drum
I think on that length of pipe run it won’t be an issue - you can purge into the drum also just by shutting the 4” for a few moments, but yeah ideally you should have a purge on both drain lines.
@@inazumakoi shutting one drain will not purge it, you will have some bit come through but nothing compared to purging it properly
@@MikeZak101 I meant both... 4”’ valves.
@@inazumakoi still wouldn't be enough
@@MikeZak101 my plan it will work a treat mate trust me
Hi your blue water pipe u put in did u put the insert in pipe before u put them 90 bends on or it will pop off over time
Jobs a good ‘un, as we say where I come from.
Absolutely banging the jobs out, you are a machine man. Great work.
Hell yea mate anne is loveing the new body lol 😂
It’s been said a couple of times but fill those drains with water before pouring the concrete. The drains and pipes will float if you don’t. Don’t underestimate the power of air we al have pushed a ball under in a pool and that’s just a little bit of air 😉
james are you placing a membrane in before the Base concrete goes in ?
Don't think he will need to as he is fiber glassing the pond, and that ground is rock solid not sure he needs gravel under the concrete either.
Cracking fella, will soon be throwing the block up! Do you plan to do it all yourself?
DEFFO MATE DOING EVERYTHING MY SELF MATE
