What happens here

Using an excavator and shovels, the team begins digging the main pond basin. The process involves removing significant amounts of soil and shaping the area according to the planned elevations. Attention is paid to creating a stable and appropriately sized foundation for the water storage and pump system. This step is labor-intensive, requiring coordination between heavy machinery and manual labor to achieve the desired depth and contour.

Goal: Dig out the main pond basin to the planned depth and shape

Tools and materials

  • Excavator Daewoo — Large-scale earth moving and digging the pond basin
  • Safety Glasses — Protecting eyes from flying debris
  • Shovels — Manual fine-tuning of the pond shape and clearing debris
