I finally did enough convincing to get the wifey to OK my garage pond. I have absolutely no wood working skills so I am thinking about using cinderblocks. The dimensions I'm going for is 8'Lx4'Wx4'H. I have a few questions though...
I know plywood sheets come in 8x4 so could I just get the plywood sheets put up 4 walls held together by corner brackets and then use cinderblocks on the outer perimeter so that it would hold the weight of the water? I plan on having it insulated as well so from the outside layer going in it will be.. cinder blocks, plywood, insulation board, soft liner, pond liner and finally tile on the floor on top of the pond liner. Will this work or will this have me end up with 900 gallon of water in my garage? I'm open to any suggestions at this point. I'm just trying to come up with the easiest non woodworking way possible.
