I was thinking of using concrete for building the waterfall/river going into a pond, anyone have any suggestions on how to build forms for this. not thinking huge here, the river would be no more than 1 foot wide and 6 feet long with about 3 feet overall drop to the pond (series of falls maybe?).
 
simple mesh wire net, like screen doors. bend it how you want than apply cement.
 
something to think of I found out that if the waterfall is in the sun evaporation will happen allot faster especially if your are making multiple drops. I've also been thinking of changing my waterfall to concrete and have been looking at people ponds. I think I'm going to use colored concrete for more less a base and as mortar then use natural rock to make my waterfall steps. good luck and show us your progress.
