Pond BUILD! Day 2- sketchy

What happens here

The project begins with the strategic placement of large boulders. An excavator, specifically a Kubota SVL 97-2 compact track loader, is used to lift and maneuver significant rocks. Team members manually assist by guiding the boulders into position using straps and ensuring precise placement. This initial phase establishes the rough outline and key structural elements of the pond and waterfall.

Goal: Position large boulders to define the pond's structure and waterfall elements.

Tools and materials

  • Large Boulders Natural stone — Forming the structural elements and aesthetic features of the pond
  • Lifting Straps — Securing boulders to the excavator for lifting
