Dave versus the Pool Deck: The final chapter

It's done!!!!

May I use the pool now? Please?

Dave versus the pool deck part 2.1

Where's Dave?
He hasn't posted in awhile.
Did he get stuck under the pool deck?
.....I'm still here....
The re-construction is going well and with no visits to the emergency room :)
The pool deck is now 97% complete, I have a few small touches to complete and then I'll post those pics. Stay tuned...............................

Dave versus the pool deck part 2

Hooray!...I can't believe it!...The pool deck is done!!!...See?!!!!

No, I'm kidding it's not done, but we have made some progress:

Now to drag it closer to the pool and raise it up:

We had to raise it up nearly a foot, it wasn't until we were done raising one side, I had remembered that I had a 12 ton hydraulic jack that would of helped earlier, stored down cellar...........oooops!

So far, no one has been injured, and I've made 4 trips to the hardware store and 3 trips to the home improvement store. The stairs are connected now, and I'll have pictures to post soon.-----Dave

Dave versus the pool deck

Last summer, I was lucky to get a used pool deck from a friend who was having his above ground pool removed. Er, should I say, In exchange for the deck and his pool filter and equipment, I, (with the help of two of my best friends, Jake and my Father-in-Law), we dismantled the pool for him. Fair exchange, I think.

In my mind, I was hoping after we re-construct it, it will look like this:

 

Or better yet, it will look like this:

But no..., so far it looks like this:

 And it doesn't look better at this angle either....

So far it doesn't look like much, but I'm fortunate to have a Father-in-Law with a lot of construction experience, stay tuned for updates.......
