An excellent step-by-step photo report on the construction of a summer cottage pool was sent to us by a subscriber Arseniy from the city of Sarov. Sharing a working way to make a pool from used railway sleepers #do it yourself .

#Do it yourself: a pool of sleepers.

Finally, the pool looks like this. At first you will not believe that it took only the author to build it 4 thousand rubles! Spend:

  • waterproofing;
  • welded mesh;
  • the rest was found at home or at work :)

And it all began with the fact that Arseny brought from work several dozen railway sleepers for the construction of a barn. However, later plans changed.

They dug a hole under the pool, laid the sleepers, tamped the soil:

The space between the sleepers was filled with polyurethane foam with a high coefficient of elasticity. This is usually used in the installation of plastic windows in wooden houses. The bottom was covered with a waterproofing film.

After that, the future steps and side parts of the garden pool were covered with waterproofing material. Finally, the outlines of the structure began to emerge and the smell of sleepers was gone:

The next stage is covering with liquid waterproofing. It was decided to choose it, since the base of the pool is the sleepers, not concrete.

The longest stage is self-cooking and fixing gabions around the pool. Gabion is a welded structure made of thick metal mesh into which stones are laid.

By the way, Arseny took more than 300 kilograms of stones alone.

And, finally, the final planking of the country pool with a board and painting with yacht varnish.

Your opinion!?

Let's praise Arseny and his golden hands in the comments!
