@hydrazine I love this game and yes it is much easier doing it on here

@bost18 i can't play it now, just makes my eyes go funny. There's an app that's like it called planner 5D that I like to use to design a mansion I'll never have.  

---

@hydrazine you never know we might get it! this is my house and garage but I trapped a sheep which kept eating my grass ‍♀️

---

@bost18 hopefully that doesn't happen in real life  

---

@hydrazine hopefully not  

---

What is this game? Minecraft?  

---

@radioisotope81 yep  

---

@bost18 I diddnt even think of planning on here

---

@radioisotope81 I made a few designs to see which works the best with the space, I think it’s the top one but here are the others

Answer 2

My dad used to build pools for a living. We never had one because the running costs were too high x

@layer11929 yeah I get that, was thinking with the new heat pumps it would be cheaper than before!  

Answer 3

Not a cost but you could use solar/wind to help keep in heated

Answer 4

I want a natural pool but i need a bigger garden first :s

Comments

@hoover9 I have seen these but because it’s the UK I think it needs to be indoors/lean too. I like the filter systems for the natural pools

---

@bost18 if you create a "swimming pond" like this one then you dont need any filter systems just a good balance of plants. However you cant heat it and you will likely end up sharing it with the local wildlife (which is exactly why i want one) xx

Answer 5

What kind of pool ? For swimming or ornamental ?

@replevy swimming ‍♀️

Answer 7

Answer 8

@alexandrina I was thinking about obsidian but that is too rich for my blood  

---

@bost18 using mine craft for planning like this is genius  

---

@alexandrina thank you, it’s a lot easier to show someone your plans like this than try and tell them  

---

Thought I would do it in different areas of the garden to see which looks best
