Marking out with a hosepipe

Marking out with a hose If the pond is not rectangular in shape then one of the best ways to mark it out is to use your garden hose pipe.
This allows you to mark it out and then view it from different areas of the house or garden.
When you have finally decided on the shape of the pond then it can be cut out using the hose as a guide, but many people pour dry sand from the neck of a bottle to mark out the pond. This allows the hose to be used for watering the garden and prevents any possibility of the hose being damaged.
