Finally here is a real "How to" video about my waterfall i have builded a while ago!

In the end i gave the whole thing multiple coats of a BEHR Premium Protector and Waterproofer.
Also i used some 3x2" wood and everything i could find for building the skeleton.

More informations you will find in the describtions in PART II.

    You had me with "drinking beer and looking at it"! I do this all the time and it's a critical step when creating anything, especially in the garden.
  • @brookspa94
    It’s amazing what a little beer, time to think, concrete, water, blood, & a lot of hard work, can create! Great Job! THANK YOU for sharing your precious time, thoughts, & ideas with us! 😊
  • I was asked to repair/rebuild an artificial rock waterfall for a client, and I followed these exact steps. I did frame my original design with 2x4s and 2x6s, and used a heavier 2x4 wire (2 layers) as it's on the edge of a pool and I know people will be jumping from it. Just wanted to say thanks for the lesson!

    I really enjoyed this and you have given me solutions to a lot of stumbling blocks. Thank you
  • Love your humor…..and absolutely beautiful waterfall…. You gave me inspiration for the backyard this spring. Thank you !!
  • @donnale3881
    That is absolutely wonderful! I'm motivated.... to convince my husband that we need this in our backyard!
  • @vhivekna

    very good, i am going to build a pond in a few years once the children are bigger, i think im going to go for something like this, initially lightweight construction that should hopefully last, looks very effective.
  • Thats realy awesome!! I have customized a background of my own 200cm tall terrarium. But when i have a home with a garden im certainly going to build something like this. Its absolutely astonishing. Great job dude
  • Great work just the answer I was looking for,. I aim to build a waterfall as part of a water purification system to aerate the water and this idea is just what I need. Thanks for showing us what you did.
  • @alexylang4427
    Really love your waterfall and video. Got lots of chuckles,especially with the beer and blood. Gonna try my hand at this and an arch this summer,but with the addition of some Margaritas. Cheers and thanks!🍹

    You are brave and patient!!! Bravo mister! 👏 Very nice end product!
  • Sir, that is one fantastic waterfall and Little Paradise you have built there. Congratulations
  • I'm in the process of making rock looking letters. And after watching your video it is a total motivator in that I now know what I need to do thank you very much for a well-done video thank you.
  • What a brave man you are to tackle this project, you made a fabulous job, congratulations! You inspired me to make my own boulders as they are far too expensive and impossible for me to move on my own. Thank you so much.

    I've been hunting on YT for tutorials on how to build a fake rock garden but none of the videos matched the scale I was looking for. This is perfect since I suspected from the beginning that this was going to require some form of wooden structure to support the entire thing. Brilliant! Thank you for your video! And BTW: No project that is worthwhile, EVER goes without hard work, some blood loss and a lot of beer! Those 3 things are an absolute necessity before you even consider going to Home Depot (which we don't have in my country but you get the idea)!!! Good job! You should be VERY proud!! And thanks for the heads-up about trusting the process when just the frame is built. I also would have doubted myself at that point. But it turned out fantastic!

    Well done . I need this video to get me going . I been picturing mine now in a spot in the yard for a long time. It so hot here and this idea would be what I been thinking about to keep yard cool. Las Vegas
