How many hours did you put in on the dozer to get that to work?

Looks to me like he disced the area and then just pulled a levee plow behind a tractor to make that little levee.
I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.

Yep.
No dozer. Pulled a heavy disc about 4 passes, then trimmed it up and pulled it quick. Went around the edges 6 times or so to make sure the ground was soft. Then pulled a levee disc 4 times around, trimming up each time until the bottom of the tractor would scrape the dirt.

The pond that I was going to "modify" has been full of water.
Last year I couldn't get any water in it. This year can't keep water out of it.

It's never gone dry. Built an overflow between that pit and another one to get even more water. Will run some pipe one pit to this spot and just pump it.

Last year I couldn't get any water in it. This year can't keep water out of it. It's been a crazy year. I got held back a whole month cutting hay because of all the rain. And when I finally cut some, it decides to rain on it. But I'm not complaining one bit.
