Pond Docks of Members
A dock, pier, or jetty on a pond or lake makes the water body more usable and enjoyable for many pond related activities. Docks can be a designed and built before or after the pond is filled or installed as a floating dock after the pond is full. Docks can be built as a cantilever structure that has a massive cement base and the dock extends out over the water.

Water fluctuation is a factor to consider when building a dock. Purpose, use and size are other factors to consider. Here are links to what others have designed and built for their ponds. Herman Brothers Pond Management in Peoria IL, as members here, will custom build a quality dock for your water body. Other advertisers here for prebuilt docks include Connect-A-Dock, Ellison Marine, and EZ Doc of Texas.

Esshup's 3 piece floating dock in Indiana. http://forums.pondboss.com/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=350238#Post350238

Weissgyy: I was unable to find plans for constructing a floating dock on a budget. Does anyone have anything like this or a link to this?

- There are some plans for using 50 gallon plastic barrels for floats. As long as the floats are positioned correctly, you'll end up with a pretty stable dock. I'll dig up some links later(they are somewhere in my 10k+ list of favorites), and I'll replace this text with the links. EDIT: Here's a link I found: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070917142345AALAyNt
According to my research, one 55 gallon drum displaces roughly 450 pounds of water (from previous link). Here is the one link I could find. I'll post more if I can dig them up. I've been thinking about building one of these myself.
