OK, thanks - will do!

Yes, we did go around and cut the foam more for some to make sure all the feet were firmly on the pavers, they’re just not centered since the legs right next to pool…

Not sure if you still want pics… took us awhile to drain pool, move and do more leveling… but we set up the pool today! I’m wondering if we should’ve cut the foam more so the legs would be more centered on the pavers, but we were trying to do it so that all of the base of the pool stayed on the...

Oh OK, yes, we’re using XPS foam sheets (pink ones) and we used eight 4’ x8’ sheets to make a 16’ square and then cut a circle.

Im not sure if I understand your question, but we didn’t put pavers under the whole pool, just under the legs.

Thanks! The dry fit is essentially what we did - to make the foam more manageable. Now moving to stage of filling a little bit and adjusting to see if we need to cut more foam. Seems like really no way around cutting it in place. Thanks again!
