Memorial for my lather

darkviper · 04-24-2007, 01:23 PM

This is a project that i had started to honor my late father. Memorial Construction - a photoset on Flickr

I used a Kioti CK20Hst in the construction. The water moves over this structure at a rate of 8500 gallons per hour. It has a complete sediment and bio filtration system all the constuction was done by myself as well as the design.

Your Dad would be very PROUD... That is awesome...

WOW! I'm sure your Dad has a huge smile on his face and is so proud of his son.

Incredible job. Thanks for sharing.

WOW- very nice work.

Amazing, simply amazing.... Talk about a true labor of love!

We MUST see more pics, when the pool is finished. This is an awesome memorial, suitable for a park or something!

I would say your father ( and mother ) did good! One fantastic project. I won't comment on your spelling- sorry I had to drop that in! I know, you can't edit the title....I am spelling challenged, but would be very proud to claim you as a son!!!

Wow, that's something else. What a great tribute.

Thanks for all the complements. This has been a year and a half in the making. I will have more on there when i get it finished up in the next couple of weeks with all the landscaping. As far the spelling i have never been good at it anfd my typeing is worse. I cant seem how to figure out how to edit this stuff. But oh well.

Wow that looks amazing. My father passed away enexpectedly in August due to a massive heart attack at age 43. I am going to do something for him as well. I inherited his 2001 Fatboy. He was planning on doing a custom paint job on it...now I am going to finish that off for him this winter when I have more time on my hands. I have a pic of him that I am going to have airbrushed on the rear fender after it gets painted his favorite color (blue).

That is a great project there. I am sure you father would be proud. I know there isn't a day that goes by I don't think about my father. It hurts the most when I'm doing a small project and go to give him a call. He was always there for that bit of quick advice to get me going in the right direction.

God Bless Brother,
Mike
