@flippy - Welding is a lot of fun! Get yourself a MIG welder, thats the best/easiest to learn with. One of the next steps for me will be getting the garage into workable shape so I can use all my tools again...

I have to admit that I thought you were crazy for going with that plaster color. It turns out you know what you're doing. I love the color of your water!
WOW! I would have given up... I bet it made you feel good seeing that water going in... Congrats!
This is so awesome! It looks so fantastic. I'm sure you are happy to enjoy all your hard work!
So knowing what you know now, would you do it all yourself again? do anything differently? Just dying to tackle another pool restoration?

Not sure Brad is still monitoring this but I am in a similar situation and have a couple questions- maybe someone else has similar experience?
Thanks folks

Hey Brad,
Should be BradisGlad!
Anyway, I'm doing the same thing you did. Did you use "3 kits" of the foam or did you mean 3 pairs of tubes? I'm ordering mine and want to know.
Also, I see why you stuck with only one box of the Torque Loc - expensive. I'll do the same combo as you, TorqueLoc and carbon staples/w injection, and that will also seal the inside of the crack.
Did you know they have epoxy to inject in the crack as well as foam. If so, why did you choose foam? I have a question in to Brad at Anderson on which one to use.
Did you consider/find Emecole when you bought the Anderson Leakmaster stuff? I wonder how they compare.
The big question is, did you cut that pine tree down yourself???!!
And of course, how is the pool holding up? You do have moister soil than I have down south of you so I hope it's not settling on you but if it has I wonder how your fixes are holding together.
Good job! and great pic of you and Leslie in the pool
