How the heck am I suppost to get exactly 4/7 water in a room?! 

[Acperience]

Pit/Pond zones

specifically the pond part.

Make your pool a pit/pond with multiple single tile "pong" zones along the edge. A dwarf per zone will take a bucket and fill it up from another water source 1/7 a tile at a time. As you get close to 4/7 on all squares, reduce the # of zones to slow down the bucket brigade.

Alternatively you can fill a pool to 7/7 that is exactly 4/7 as many squares as your final pool size, then once it's full, dig out the rest.

Also, how do I smooth the ALL ramps in a channel and still let my dwarfs get out after they smooth the ramps?

If it's 4/7 they walk.

On a more important note: quit making threads; look it up.

Yea... About 1/5 of his posts are brand new topics.

In my first attempt at it I channeled out this big space above where I wanted a long hallway of 4/7 water except it wasn't as big as the hallway for the water.
(If you have 4 tiles of 7/7 that is enough for 7 tiles of 4/7. So if you want something 3 wide you need 12 tiles of 7/7 in order to get 21 tiles of 4/7.)

I think I had some spilling though so I had to bucket in a little water anyway.

Build a staircase down/up, then floor over it.
