I built the solar reel from this forum. Just search diy solar reel and you’ll find the post if you are interested. It was very ez to do. Only thing I have to figure out is where to put it when I take it off . I have a deck but it’s only 12 feet wide . The cover is 24 ft wide . It looks like the ground is my only option unless you guys have suggestions80729A78-DF60-4232-9851-C732C0AF83C7.jpeg

This is not ez to handle with a 24ft above ground.
I have a shed near my pool and hung it up on hooks. most of the support was in the middle which allowed the pipe to curve and now its pretty difficult to use. Im going to re-do the cover and then add additional hooks to support the entire length of the pipe.
so whatever you do, just make sure it stays straight
