RE: Developing My Spring Head For Water Collection

in #homesteading8 years ago

we used the "hydraulic" cement for the entire inside of pool except where the water flows in from. you mix a small handful at a time. about 1:2 ratio 1 water + 2 cement mix roughly and mix it quickly then place it where you need it. it is exothermic so it heats up somewhat. it dries super fast so don't dilly dolly around. it dries under water even faster. hence the name "hydraulic" cement. we used a 3ltr soda bottle we cut the bottom third off of and used that to mix small amounts at a time. where rubber gloves because it damages your skin.

Thanks for the excellent advice. I know it will help others as well :)

happy you liked it :)
