backyard ice skating rink 2010 part 1

First attempt ever to put in a skating rink in the backyard. It is 40ft x 40ft. The yard out of level by about 4 inches, I am filling the last couple of inches of water right now and I am hoping that the boards hold on the deep end. I will keep you posted

@fireman90210 I put some water in to let freeze, then I will fill the rest after that happens. I think it is supposed to get into the 14's next week. The next issue I found is a leak, i hope it freezes soon. Can you tell that this is my very first time trying an ice rink? Thanks for the comment.

Ive made on for the past three years. The other day it leaked and broke cus of alot of rain and wind. we just stapled the liner to the wood. Rite now i think its about 70ftx35ft.

Sorry dude, you're not gonna get ice till you have about consistent 14 degrees or colder. Don't even add water unless you have that.
