I hired my 2 teenage nephews to do most of the digging. While I worked on created the various tiers within the pond. Total labor cost so far. $500.
They'd come over for about 2hrs a week since June to do a few wheel barrows at a time. The work was slow but I'm glad I didn't have to do it all by myself.
This is a the final layout. Deepest point is about 4 feet deep. I have the liner and underlayment coming soon.
Some final touches before the liner goes in.
Carpet underlayment.
