you cant see part of it but its sitting on 75mm thick styro so the bracing slips under there, there are 2 huge l brackets holding it together.

im about 15cm from the top so im pretty excited the fish go in tommorow!

the liner is polyethylene, i got it from www.affordablepools.com.au to be honest i wasn't very happy with there service. for multiple reasons which include

not being told that bracing went under the pond when i told the, it had to fit in a 3metre garage on a slab
being sent the wrong parts up.
when i had the right parts sent up bits were missing and i was told t modify some of the bracing.

I'm curious about your stock as well.
Will this be a rehome for any fish you got or gonna get new blood?

sauna houses are also made of wood and operate without rot. @ ramesh there's little thing called stain, it has a brother called varnish. you should check them out. lol
 
This will be a monster setup.
 
Aquasonic have some great Pentair FBF capable of doing the job for you mate.
As for saunas and steam rooms they are two different things easily confused.
The first is not humid the second is and they are not made of wood because of the high humidity.
