My forever dream I’m 65 its about time I realize it ❤thanks for inspiring me I feel that it’s at man’s reach

Looks nice, I am afraid in New Orleans that a gator, snapping turtle, or several less than friendly snakes would take up residence very quickly...

"we've got two separate circuits ... circumnavigating ... circumventing ... uh, going round the pond" :-)

David, you are a revolutionis, a pioneer, you need 1000 times more subscriber. Excellent content, excellent cause.

These pools are certainly becoming more popular NICE WORK don't forget the follow up so we can see the mature pool.

Nice and beautiful water plants. Awesome products.

If I ever become extremely wealthy, I'm calling you up :-)

Wow, what a finale 😀👍👍

beautifully done, the timing was perfect. as a Canadian I just miss your dry humour. need more of those yokes. LOL

Great work looks amazing

Wow! That was incredible! The results are beautiful and peaceful!

Amazing! So beautyfull and natural! I wish you made such a natural pond in my area! 💗💟💞

Amazing! Good proportions; well engineered and it looks great.

This video gives "Oh just me and the boys making a massive pool" vives, and I love it

WOW!...Beautiful!....😎👍

Sick with envy!

Mega massive pond!!!!

Magnificent!🇨🇦

0:37 I see a crack already

LOVELY JOB CHAPS

Awesome video and pool

Very beautiful...

Master piece

WOW! this is BEAUTIFUL!!!

Flight of the Valkyrie ... good choice. Better then all the other build videos that have some raving chipmunk

this is a very much inspiring project. I would like frogs, turtles and fish in there. It lives in my dream :)

Wonderful!

sublime !!

Super inspiring!

Wow ! 4 minutes ! I'd have thought it would have taken weeks ! ;-) Beautiful Work!

This is incredible work! Love it.

Magnificent ❤️

It indeed a good one!!!

Bravo!!👏👏👏👏

wow. you must be very proud

…. Amazing & Tremendous job Subscribed 👍🏽

beautiful , I am planning to make one organic pool also, and the only thing missing in the video was specs on the material used.

Amazing

LOVE THIS!!! GREAT VIDEO, Hopefully, get a monthly update. Would like to see how this pool progresses.

I have a splash pond. Works great. My big pond is coming. I'm modifying David's plans. Plastic on the bottom. Concrete on top. A few more changes.... too detailed to type. But it will be much easier to construct and cheaper.

Now that's a big pool

I love these organic pools. I wish I could find someone to build one for me.

Essa ficou a melhor ... top

That's king sized wow

Incredible pond, looks so natural. Love the plants which sort of gives an impression of Bush. Did you stock them with fish mate? Great work in building this amazing pond 👍👍👍

Awesome

Epic!

Very nice.

probably a dumb question, but what do you use to stick the seams in the liner together? my family is about to expand our small fish pond (currently about 2.5x1.5meters rounded rectangle) , and it's probably going to require stitching a few pieces of liner together to fit the shape (it's going to be a sort of L shape with a rounded outer corner). Is silicone calk ok? or do I need to get something stronger?

Beautiful 🙂

Imagine getting a fishing hook stuck on the plastic

Just a FYI y’all. Those rolls of tarp weigh around 800-900 Lbs EACH!

Amazing 😱😱😱

I don't get the exposed timber frame work at the bottom. Surely that's not going to last.

Some drone footage would be interesting

Q- How do you fix the wooden sleepers to the brick wall so as to make them secure?.

what if i add a bottom drain and a concrete multi chamber filter with pump (up and down system) to this system ? would it be better? i'll have koi fish too. i'm willing to reconstruct my koi pond (i have videos on my channel) and make it a little bit larger and deeper for the kids to swim in it.

You can build 15 of these every hour?!? You must be really rich by now

I would imagine an organic pool to not have a pump system and to rely solely on algae filtering fish and plants to keep it clean, along with a rerouted fresh water well/ small river to flow in, accumulate and then flow out of it. I read somewhere that a few willow trees for shade also help with the algae issue, in which case you would only require a net to catch the fallen leaves at fall time. I want to build one myself next year and I already planted some trees around where the pond will go a year ago. +I will build the basin part out of concrete and the brim out of large boulders. Hope it will look as pretty as this. I want to also install a 'hill' on one of the sides with charcoal, gravel and sand filter to recirculate the water using a pump in case I messed up and it fills up with algae.

I am also particulary interested in the specific build of the vacuums. I do understand the principle behind the system, but where does the debris goes in this case. If it is just pumped to planted zone water area, I would think it would permanently affect the water clearity in a negative way… And can you even reach the dirt in the center part of the pond with this setup?

Great and cool. If one were to build an organic pond completely organic and no plastic liner... How would you go about it?

I fell in love with these pools. I was wondering, if it was in colder climate (Scandinavia), if there's a way to heat the water. I think the heaters need a clean water to function. would it be possible to somehow connect a filter with a heater for a natural pool? or would heating destroy the plants.

Hi David, love your work and your floppy hat. I have one very important question! do you ever have issues with clogging over time? If your airlift pumps are pulling water down through the substrate, the geotextile and the gravel I am wondering if the geotextile clogs with fine silt eventually? What is the longest standing pool you have that is still working (unclogged)? Thanks!

Would waterfoul create an issue in the water balance or no?

Organic pool - growing up we called them "ponds".

WOOWWWWW

Whoa! .... a lake.....

looks great as always. have you evolved the design a little from previous iterations? you mention air lift pumps to remove silt - how does that function? also there are horizontal spans of wooden beams coming out at 90 degrees periodically around the submerged wooden rectangle, and are buried under the stone fill - is this to increase stability/prevent it floating?

Sir can you explain how the filtration works!

Do you ever get a hole in the liner?, would you have to drain the whole thing? Is there a way to do this sort of thing with bentonite clay?

Where do I get organic pond liner!?!?!?

David, what liner did you use fir this build, please? Thanks.

Heavenly.

What is the "break rate" on those seams?

Why the need for the rectangular cinder block portion?

I know this is an old video but I'm not quite sure I understand the design of the bubble pumps on this one. What is the purpose of the 6 pipes that go through the wall in into the swimming zone?

I’m wondering, after seeing many of these videos, why the rejuvenation area is always shallow and wide? I understand the rejuvenation area needs to be a similar capacity to the swimming area but would a deep and narrow rejuvenation area not work as well. Is it something to do with a build up of sediment or the flow of the water from the bubble pump wouldn’t work as well or something?

Very organic with all that plastic.

What was the cost for this pool?

do the black drain pipes have holes?

It looks like are harming the envirounment more than a conventional pool. Is it hard to make a 100% natural one? I mean, using clay to prevent soil leaking than using polymers...

Now I am a bit puzzled. The air lift pumps are on the PLANT (renegeration) side, not the SWIMMING (deep) side. This seems to be the wrong way round compared to your other model? Now I am in doubt as to whether to flow water from the swimming area to the plants, or the other way round. Or perhaps it doesn't matter?

Does this cost one or two arms?

Question - would it be possible to build the pool without liner by using something else perhaps impermeable clay like bennonite?

can you do a video on the gunk lifters :D

I just want one the size of a bathtub. What can you do with a Dune? I live on a Sand Dune.

Wow, beautiful. Where was that, UK?

hey david wat types of plants do you use???

How deep can these be made?

Hi, awesome idea and work! Id like to build one of this organic pools in the future in my permaculture farms in Poland and Tenerife(Spain), and Id contact you guys for that! Just theres one thing: how can affect the frost to this pools and the balance of its artificial ecosystem? Because in Poland we reach quite cold temperatures in winter, -15/-20 ºC, and Im a bit concerned about that being a problem cause Itd kill at least many plants and beneficial microorganism (and fishes, which we wanna have in the pool, which I guess its posible, rigth?), so if all the year the pool is creating life and balnce in the ecosystem and then after the winter it all dies, thats a pity xd... Thanx! Greetings from Poland/Tenerife!! :)

I love the job that you're doing. I'm a big fan! Question - why are there pipes with the 90 degree knee (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qcqVdK6Ll9rTcYE.html) reaching almost bottom to the pond? For better circulation? :)

How much did it cost to build this?

Do you have a water meter?

How does this compare to digging a pond and compacting a layer of clay down? This looks overly complicated to me with potential for the system to fail in the future. I'd rather keep things simple or just not do them.

So that all looks beyond my wildest dreams amazing but…. That upper lining of wood… won’t that be 1) breaking down and adding to murky-ness that needs to be filters and 2) need to be replaced in 5 or so years depending on the wood?

Hello! Greetings from Brasil! Please let me ask : no iron bars on the concret blocks??? I want to make a pool like tjis here😊😊 congrats and thanks for share it

Gosh how much did that liner cost

what kind of canvas is this?

Hey I’m planing on building a swimming pond and have couple of questions I’d love to ask you for help.

OMG that looks so expensive!
