Bringing you to my house to do the pool first, though. LOL. My yard is not horribly unlevel but it isn't completely flat either, so I will be doing...

    Should I use cement pavers under Intex legs?

    Please do I would appreciate that, I feel like information overload right now + don't know what I'm doing + tight budget + want to swim = FRUSTRATION but I know I will get my pool up and everything will be ok. But yes I would love to see some relevant posts on levelling for more ideas.

Anyway to get it back up and level without draining and moving and...
