You don't want to do it thru an old liner, imo. We looked in to that,
wasn't worth the work or more likely chance of not getting a good seal.

Otherwise, I wouldn't hesitate, enough bottom drains have been done by
amateurs in our pond club (as in, they're whole experience doing one is
that one) without problems. ~ jan
