    I had great success with Run your car with water. It was really clear with lots of diagrams that explained the process. My mileage is not 40-45% better than before and my engine is running smooth as can be. Check out http://www.gas4freereview.com For More Info

How to Make a Water Feature - Presentation Transcript

  1. How to make a water feature © 2006 All Rights Reserved. Stuart Robinson
  2. Step 1 Prepare a plot for your water feature to be built. Step 2 Plan to have your reticulation and electrical power source already positioned
  3. Step 3 Place some boards to edge the concrete at a depth of 75mm (3in). Cut some steel mesh to fit.
  4. Step 4 Cut some plastic large enough to cover the bottom and also above the sides. This is to stop seepage from your water feature through the concrete base
  5. Step 5 Pour the concrete while keeping the steel mesh in the centre. Leave this to cure for a couple of days and keep it wet so that curing is slower and there is less chance of cracking.
  6. Step 6 Starting at the back, build the walls required for your water feature.
  7. Step 7 Continue building the bricks up making sure that each of the walls are bonded into each other
  8. Step 8 Once you’ve finished building the walls leave it at least 24 hours before rendering.
  9. Step 9 Render in the colour of your choice and leave dry to touch. Then begin to screed until smooth.
