Just finished reading this thread. I had "a few ideas" for something different but you've blown me out of the water and doubled the budget on my build! Seriously, thanks for sharing all of these photos and the build process.

One request if you have time... would you mind explaining how the various parts of the timber structure are removable yet structurally sound?

recently stripped out a number of the vertical pots, need to replant them...

fish are looking great, even found one in the RFF that i presume got there as a fingerling during one our overflow incidents about 6 months ago...

blackberry has exploded with new growth.
pulled out all of the lettuce as we had an outbreak of aphids and only yesterday found the ants so want to get onto them asap before planting the beds out again.
Original strawberrries have taken off again

Here is a quick trout update video that i made this morning and edited on my phone...

great system IceManDude. Do you find the blackberry a bit invasive in the main GB ?
Wondering how it might have gone in a half barrel (as pot/bucket rather than GB half) on its own to the side ?

I'm sure it will be... I'd hate to see the root system but no issues so far. i was going to put it into a root pouch but didn't get around to it. I wasn't prepared to add another pot/barrel and mess up the aesthetics but i'm sure it would be a better option.
