RE: #playbypost : Vapor’s Gambit round 3
Sorry bout that.
Haven't had much time while putting up the pool 😅
Mt father neglected to tell me the pool were assembling is supposed to be built up with a clear space around it... and we built it in a space just large enough for it, after we dug out the sides of the surrounding earth/cliff wall 😒
I move forward 9 spaces in my current lane
No worries.
That seems like a lot of work. Hope it goes well. 😀
Your max speed is 10. So we will move you forward 10.
Plenty of race to go.
Thanks for playing.
It was exhausting... I pity my sister who is working in our town... so at hand to help my father finish the work on the pool 😅
I've never seen a pool built out of wood like that before. What happens when the wood rots? And how do you prevent the liner from popping at any of the pockets where the wood forms the corners? It would be interesting to see how the project progresses.
My father will be taking more pictures as they advance.
As it is, there's external elements to drain away the water and avoid the wood rotting, and the liner should be fixed at several points.
I'll have to ask my father about the liner popping at the corners. No idea what stops that.
I imagine those little pockets would all need to be filled with something before the liner is installed. Or the wood is lined with a sheet-metal wall that supports the liner. My pool had a continuous 4-foot high roll of corrugated sheet metal all the way around that was bolted together at the free ends so that it formed a continuous wall with no breaks in it. The bolt-heads (rounded) were covered by a strip of rubber.
