Thanks, Guys! This has been VERY helpful. \:D

They're finishing up my pond today. Dressing up the dam top/road, etc. I'll probably go ahead and order the WM, get it assembled & in place before the rains come in September (hopefully it'll come! :rolleyes:

I've found that Joe Mescan has the best $$ on the Koender type WM. His price includes shipping to Texas. The other dealers didn't include shipping, which made the overall costs higher.

Sounds like I need to round up all 3 of my grown sons and a brother-in-law to raise/set it up on the site! \:\)

Again, thanks to each of you. I'll let you know how it turns out in a few weeks.
