@Synergy2 I did tie in the old intake. I will take some pictures this weekend for you to see.

It has been over a year since I bought it. However what made me pick the widemouth was it was little shorter (I can't remember the exact size, it wasn't much) that than the square one. I didn't want my water level to drop more than it had to with a skimmer. Also I thought the widemouth would...

Here is my last weekends progress. Again it waits and storms on the weekends here. I wish I could get a full 2 days of work in. Take a wild guess what this weekends forecast is? [attachment=2:2klje2vm]Forecast.JPG[/attachment:2klje2vm]...

This weekend I started on the decking. It came to an abrupt stop due to thunderstorms late Saturday and most of the day Sunday. I will be back at it again this weekend if the weather lets me. [attachment=0:lao1vztv]Pool013_opt.jpg[/attachment:lao1vztv]

Re: Installing an in-wall skimmer tomorrow, questions about I just installed mine this weekend. The outside threads are for 2.5" and it has inside threads for 1.5". I went for the 1.5" treads and stepped it down to 1.25" piping. Here are my pictures...

My skimmer came in this week and I installed it this weekend. Still working on the hard pluming and the placement of the pump and filter. [attachment=1:2uozjqte]Pool009_opt.jpg[/attachment:2uozjqte] [attachment=0:2uozjqte]Pool010_opt.jpg[/attachment:2uozjqte]

No process this week. Lots of rain and I had to have minor surgery. I am hoping to start it again on Wednesday.

The "C' dimension isn't drawn right. The actual dimension is correct for the whole base of the pool with legs. I took it and added the the extra inches because it shows in the drawing they are measuring from the corner of the pool out (it should be drawn like "A" and "D" are). When the pool...

Very rainy weekend here, started on the frame in-between the storms. Not a very productive weekend.

I was researching the same 2 vacuums. I purchased the Intex maintenance kit today. http://www.amazon.com/Pool-Maintentance-Kit-Deluxe-Edition/dp/B005QIXOY0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1373576248&sr=8-1&keywords=intex+maintenance+kit I believe this is the same kit but it is cheaper than your link.

My plans are to make the whole deck system modular. I will be starting on the deck this weekend if the thunderstorms will let me. Yes i dug it all by hand. I live in the Tampa Bay area in Florida, our dirt is mostly sand. The 1st 10"-12" is like top soil and then it is all sand after that...
