Hi All,
UK intex owner here! Thought I would do a quick post on my first AGP pool experience and where I've got to so far!
So I purchased a 32x16 ultra xtr off ebay (used)....i have always wanted one and made an offer while on the train home from work!
It was then a case of making a plan for where the pool would go, and the planned sub-base.
Hired/borrowed some plant to get started. Stripped the turf and reduced the ground to the lowest point. Fortunately my back garden is fairly level anyway, so only had a maximum cut of around 150mm (6inches).
When I've had previous paddling pools the problem has always been when you take them up you are left with dead grass. I didn't want this so decided to install artificial grass with a paved border for the legs of the pool to sit on.
Used some dimensions from a thread on TFP, and used 3'x2' slabs 2" thick around the edge for the legs to sit on.
Took a week off work, enlisted the help of some friends and had some fun, this is where I've got to!
