    I loved it! It looks perfect and fits the farm to a T. How about using the top portion of the grain bin in the background with the rusty roof for the top of the gazebo? It would kinda match that way. Just a thought.

    Well that turned out supper, nice job. I made one for my grandkids out of an 8 foot stock thank, used blue truck bed liner sprayed on the inside, used a smaller sand pump then yours, works good for the little kids. They are under 10 years old.

    I think you should add a short fence around it so when you play basketball you don't have to go get it when you throw it out of the pool it just hits the fence and back into the pool

  • @josephgladish22
    @josephgladish22 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    From a person who did pools for aloha pools and spa for 2 years I would say you did great they make a pool vac you stick between the liner and pool wall that sucks all the air out under the liner and sucks the liner to the wall

  • @tashataliaferro1653
    @tashataliaferro1653 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    • @griggsfarmsllc

  • @LampleyBrothersFarming
    @LampleyBrothersFarming 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Pool looks great. If I'm thinking right, that should be a old government surplus bin. They had them for storing wheat, then sold them to public real cheap. We got two of them, even have that tiny square door to get into bin.

    Man I love that buddy. You did great job wouldn't change anything really. I'm just thinking like a farmer here, on the gazebo top, could you possibly make it to where in the winter or before bad weather design the gazebo to be moved to cover pool an save the cover you will purchase? Or get a heater an have a spa in winter? Great job an God bless.

    Great job using an old bin. I have a family member that had a new silo built on their dairy farm. Somehow they brought too many staves so a 30 foot by 5 foot deep pool was built. With a deck, sliding board, and basketball net, it is a great fun place. Farmer ingenuity always wins!🏊‍♂️🤽‍♂️

  • @JoshMann-v8k
    @JoshMann-v8k ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What kind of liner did you use for this? Brand? Overlap? I'm starting the same project and this is my only hold up.

    • @griggsfarmsllc
      @griggsfarmsllc  ปีที่แล้ว

      No overlap. Liner had a J-hook to hook on edges of side. Liner came from Branded Mfg.

    Looks great! I would definitely enjoy a pool like that.. I would invest in some s/s screws for around the skimmer and water inlet. Also make sure you don't have too much suction at the drain, or at least known in the pool when you open it up, especially kids.

  • @brianmcdermith474
    @brianmcdermith474 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Awesome job!!! Can you share where you got the liner from. I did a 30ft bin pool with a overlap liner. I'm about to replace the liner and yours looks like a better option. Thanks for the great video.

    Looks amazing as a farm boy I would love if my pops built me one but sadly Alberta Canada gets -40 in the winter and we get more cold weather than hot .. just amazing too see how much work you put in for your family to enjoy I remember being little we never had time to do much it was work work work your family is lucky to have you around id love to see what it looks like once you have had a few years to build around it and make a deck and sitting area

  • @jimpolk
    @jimpolk 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Matt. This is tremendously creative. Well done.Very very cool. One thing I would add. Take some pool noodles, split them on one side and mount them around the top rim of the pool. Make the edge a little more forgiving if the kids get rowdy playing games. Kudos!

  • @randybedker1584
    @randybedker1584 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The belt you took out of the conveyor cut it the hight of the wall and place between the liner and the bolt head. That's what my dad did on our above ground pool worked great no wearing on the liner. Just a suggestion. Something that worked for us.

    On opening the skimmer hole. Next time fully mount it without cutting the liner. Once all is mounted. Then just cut to hole open. But all else looks great. Good job Matt.

    A deck going halfway around both sides would look nice on it with a roof top and lights. This is amazing, never seen anything like it. A bar type gazebo would look nice beside it also, like have bar stools in it that goes around and table top going around like a bar.
