Perfect simple instructions! I mirrored your build except made ours a 12'x16'. Never built anything like this before but because of you I was able to make it and now my family can enjoy for many years to come! Much respect from South Florida!
Hello Mr. James, Thank you for making this comment. All a person needs sometimes is a few Simple Direction to help them along. I know your family is going to enjoy their pool/deck and make lots of memories. I have other pool related videos in my Pool Related Playlist that you may find helpful also. Thanks again my friend and God Bless!
Same here! Good job!
And here, too! The 16' x 8' x 52" deck I just finished building here in Maryland was my first attempt and exceeded our expectations. For structural peace of mind, I used 1/2" carriage bolts to secure the 2" x 6" rim joists to the 4" x 4" posts, 3/8" lag bolts to secure the 2" x 4" diagonal cross braces underneath, and metal hangers for the joists and stringers (cheap and convenient). It feels ROCK SOLID and completely transformed the experience of our 32' x 16' x 52" AGP (how wonderful to sit down after a swim and see the water rather than the side of the pool). Thank you for the inspiration, confidence, and encouragement to pursue a project of this magnitude! It was fully functional after just 3 days (working alone, with the ladder serving as my "helper" for leveling those 16' joists) and, despite inflated lumber prices, cost less than $1k.
You will enjoy it for years. God Bless!
I feel the same way. I was telling my wife, if there were high school instructors as people friendly and knowledgeable as "Poorboys Little Homestead" our industry wouldn't be hurting. I am starting my deck this weekend, but only a 8x10.
Very lucky kid to have a sharp grandfather like you! Im sure someday he will look back at this video and he will always know that. Very awesome build! Super jealous of your skill!
Thank you, Tiggle and Thanks, for dropping in and commenting. God Bless!
I built my first little pool deck 6 years ago. Unlevel, weathered, ugly. Took it all down today happily. Your video sir is perfect for me, I will definitely be copying this, I screenshotted everything I could. And I will be getting that little mixer drill bit that you have! I have no need to watch any other videos. Thank you so much!
Thank you much for the great comment. if you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks Again.
Good job grandpa, your grandson is lucky to have you ❤
Thank you!
I'm a lucky Papaw.

Hi
AKM
@@papawsplaceAKM
“Papa is gonna train him right.” 😂😂🤣 great video sir! Gave me some great ideas for my above ground pool. Hoping lumber prices come down a bit though.
Thank You! I also have other pool related videos that you may find helpful. Please Subscribe and Share my Videos on your social media to help me grow this channel .Thanks Lots.
Lol
My wife wants a deck so bad and I am scared to death to build one. This really helped me. I will build this exact one. Thank you for this video.
If I can do it anyone can do it. LOL
It's been a few years but if you have any questions feel free to ask.
I could listen to this man talk for hours! Would love to sit on that deck and have a beer with him!
Thank you my friend, I like reading comments like this.
Another fine example of "Slow-talking don't mean stupid." Excellent video. Now I gotta build mine.
Obviously not, just continue to watch and be amazed and now I don't have to ask my bro-in-law to help me...I'll be coming back to this video as soon as the pool arrives.
How far apart do you put the post?
I have been looking at building one of these around my pool and so confused of how to do it this video is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help and Thank you much for the comment.
This is definitely the best deck building video I've watched. I may try and attempt building ours for our pool. Looks great! Thanks for another great video
Thank You.
Cow panel is an excellent idea. I'm going to use it. Being an only child all my work has been done with just one person as well.
Working along will make you think of creative ways to do things for sure.
Nothing like building something from scratch, sitting back later in the day, feet up just staring at it and feeling good. Pool video man, very pool.
Thank you Mr. Gary.
you don't need a Lazer level you can use a clear hose. Fill it with water put one end in the pool and take the other end and mark your post. The water in the hose will be the same level all the way around.
That would do the trick for sure. My saying is, there is more ways to skin a cat. LOL
I can say with great confidence that this is by far the best instructional video I have come across. And to think, I was going to spend 40k plus on a pool. This is much better, hats off to you sir! Thank you!

@@papawsplace whts list of materials tht you used
@@earljoseph432 Thank you much, It's at 29:41in the video.
Everytime I put something together I wish my Grandpa was still around, he could build and fix anything I swear. Unfortunately beeing a teenager other things where on my mind, but now as a family man and a homeowner his knowledge would be pure gold. Thank you Sir for this great video. God bless.
Thank You! I also have other videos that you may find helpful. Please Subscribe and Share my videos on your social media to help me grow this channel. Thanks Much and God Bless!
Thanks for putting this together! I just placed my order from Home Depot for all of the materials you listed. Some friends are gonna come help and hopefully we will have a deck up this weekend. We wouldn’t have had a clue without your video.
Thank you very much for the kind words. If I can answer anything along the way, please feel free to ask. Thanks again and God Bless.
How much was all the material?
@@Brahmacustoms at that time it's was approx. $2500
I really wish my Papaw was still here to help me tackle my deck this spring- but I really appreciate you making this video with such clear directions. You gave this gal the confidence to tackle it! Thank you and God bless!
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
I just love your video. Absolutely amazing. Me being a disabled person and my 26 yr. old son is putting decking around our 32x16 by ourselves with three sets of stairs in front. I too framed my railings with hog wire too. Like you said, when you're by yourself, you just gotta to do what you have to do. Awesome video and deck. Much blessings to you and thanks for the tutorial
Your very welcome! God Bless
I want to adopt this man! 😅
Ha now, if the moneys rite it just may can happen. 😂😂
Thank you for the views and commenting.
We just set our pool up and loving the ideas . Thxs from Texas

Thank you much! I seldom hear someone say they could listen to me all day. 🤣🤣🤣
I just had this deck built using this video and supplies list. Worked great! I wish I could comment with a photo.
Thank you, Isaiah, for making this comment. Now if the weather will warm up so we can enjoy our pools.
About how much did it cost you for all the materials?
@@jasoncanon7311 I ordered everything from my local Home Depot. It was $1800 before tax.
Then I got the cow panels at Tractor Supply, so another $96.
How you like the cow panel look?
Im a 27 yr commercial carpenter and I learned something new by watching this, the auger with drill is brilliant!!!! I plan on doing this to our pool this fall, good job sir!!!
Hello and thank you much for commenting. This deck gets used more than the pool does. LOL
You did a darn fine job sir! Thanks for sharing!
I wish I had a dad to learn from. I appreciate these videos and how welcoming you are!
Thak you Tiffany. Feel free to ask anything and I'll do my best to help you. God Bless!
Im glad I ran across your video. been trying to find a good plan to do a deck for our pool. This one will work perfectly. Thanks!
👍 Thank You
You are one talented little old country boy!! Way to go and God bless you!
Thank you Sir. I can do a lot of things but good at nothing..LOL
Your one bad dude, Nice job! 👍🏽 Now
My wife wants one lol
Thank You! Wife that's the reason for this one..LOL
Poorboy, thank you for this. Was searching for instructions on how to do a pool deck and found your video. You give clear instructions and have built this exactly like I want mine. You seem like good people, thanks again.
Thank you!
I love your videos. I feel like I can do all the things you do with your great step by step instruction. We just bought the same pool and I am excited to put it up. Keep up the good work!
Thank You Ms. Veronica, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
I love it! You can hang lights off the cow panels! Nice job! Wish my husband was handy! 😂
Thank you very much. My dad always said, you can do anything you set your mind to. So, you and your husband can do it. 👍
I need you at my place!
I've never been inspired by any TH-cam video as much as this one inspired me! I have the exact same pool but haven't unpacked it yet because I need a deck. You are a patient magician, sir!
Thank You! I also have a video in my Pool Related Video Playlist on erecting this pool.
Your method definately makes it looks so much easier deck building, thanks for great ideas. Great channel too!!!!!
Thank you much. Stop by anytime.
I'm glad u are teaching them because out of 7 uncles who all worked construction I WISHED 1 WAS STILL ALIVE because they would gladly helped me due this job "BUT " I did learn from them so I think with your instructions I think I can pull it off of course . But I will have guidance to make sure I due it correct im a female and I can due it for my granddaughter and with her grandfathers help 😮 I will have to show him a thing or to.
I don't know who you are but I have a good feeling you can do this.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Thanks again my friend.
grate video perfect deck build . I see 15 idiots gave it a thumbs down really
Looks real nice. And it's nice to see people doing things for others. Your grandson should be proud.
Thankyou for the kind words. He is Papaws little buddy.
That is some mighty fine work!
Thank You!
Just finished building a deck by watching your video. Thank you so much for the great video and materials list! My girls love the deck and I'm looking forward to having a lot of great memories on it with family and friends this summer!
Glad it was helpful, and thank you for sharing this comment. Have a blast this summer girls. 👍

So gifted!❤️……and I could listen to him talk all day!🥰
Thank you for your kind words. God Bless!
Here for the deck build, stayed for that hat(and the build). Simple and straightforward. The build, the hat, and the gentleman. Thank you Papaw!
Oh, and where did you get that sit down roll around thingy? I need that, my knees would appreciate it. Thank you!
Thank you for the comment.
I got that from Harbor Freight.
It saves the back and knees.
That 3-4 day project be an easy 3-4 week project for me. Your good at what you do.
Once you get started you be surprised how much you will get done in a day. I'm one that once I start something I can't sleep good until its completed. That's a bad thing to have. LOL
Wow! That was awesome! I just bought the same exact pool which I’m working on now putting it up here in Massachusetts. I love your technique and idea of the cow fence around the the deck. Hope to see more videos. God bless!
Thank you for you kind words, I have several pool videos in my pool related play list. Thanks again and God Bless!
Great instructions and presentation. Im planninh on doing the same for my kids.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for commenting my friend.
I’m currently building my pool deck set up just like yours .. thank you for this perfect video !
Glad to be help and thank you for the comment.
Nicely done, wish I had seen your vid a week ago.. I recently finished a similar pool deck.. Your method would have saved me time, money and aggravation..
Thank You, I also have other pool related videos that you may find helpful. Please Share my videos on your social media to help me grow this channel..Thanks Again.
The auger bit is such a good idea. Picking one up today
Saves a lot of time and work.
Thank you so much! My husband and I are building a deck for our pool. Looks exactly like your grandsons pool. We have built decks before but not for a pool. I really like the way you did yours. Going to show this video to my husband. He built a small deck coming off our back porch and he will connect the two decks. I think it will look really nice. We bought our deck pool steps off Facebook market place. Like new condition. Got them last summer after installing the pool. He had to rent a big digger machine because our yard is not flat. He did a real nice job with the retaining wall. Can’t wait to see what the deck looks like. I know it will be nice. I’m disabled with severe arthritis so it’s going to be so much easier for me to get in an out of the pool. It’s going to be perfect for both of us to get exercise. We are both getting up in years and the pool is perfect for both of us. But for severe arthritis especially with the spine involved swimming is the best thing you can do. It relieves pain buy about 50 percent the day after I’ve been in the pool. Long as you don’t over do it. Your deck and steps sure look nice!
Thank You very much. Feel free to ask any questions and I'll try to answer in a timely matter. God Bless.
Awesome video!!! Very detailed and explained thoroughly. Makes me want to try myself. Good job and thank you, Sir.
If I can co it you can do is what I tell everyone.
Thank you so much for this video and the list of materials! My son and I are going to build a deck for our pool.
You are very welcome. If you have any questions feel free to ask and I'll try my best to answer.
Nice job.I got the same pool for my granddaughter as soon as the lumber prices come down I'll build it.
Thank you! The lumber is crazy priced at this time. Please Subscribe, Like and Share my videos to help me grow this channel. Thanks Again!
You are AMAZING!!! It’s a little late in the season but we just got out our pool after having it in storage since 2019 when we moved to our new property. It’s in perfect condition PTL 🙏🏻 and my husband’s favorite pastime is woodworking in his shop. I’ve been searching all over the internet for some deck ideas and when folks say this is the best video online ... believe them, because it is!!! My husband is going to really appreciate all that you put into this! He grew up Amish and they are notorious for their craftsmanship and building farmhouses in a day. He won’t be putting it up until next year in April/May, but already has all the wood and is considering a boardwalk on the opposite side of the pool that will lead to the steps. Fantastic job, and thank you, Sir for sharing this with us.
Thank you Mygalmo for the kind words. I really appreciate your comment. I have more pool related videos in my Playlist that you may find helpful. Please Subscribe, Like and Share my videos on your social media to help me grow this channel. Thanks Again and God Bless!
Great Job on the pool deck.
Thank you Sir.
Thank you sir
Love the cow panel look myself
Thank You!
Thank You for sharing, my wife & I are trying to decide on a in ground or above ground pool. Cost wise above ground makes more sense & your video has given us a vision on how to complete a deck for it! Really appreciate your step by step instructions you provided! God bless!
Thank you much for the comment. I also have other pool related videos in my play list that you may find helpful also. Thanks again and God Bless!
@@papawsplace Yes Sir, we’ve seen & subscribed! Now we’re binge watching! lol
👍
That looks excellent
Tghank You!
Thanks for your video. I am from China and your pronunciation did remind me of the cowboys in American west films I watched, lol
Hello Mr. Steven and thanks for dropping in. I take that as a compliment my new friend. 🤠
Still keep an eye on that little grandson. He can climb the cow fencing you used, and the pool is very tempting.
Yes Ma'am, They can climb like monkeys at that age..LOL
Excellent work really appreciate nice video and Details really worth watching.
Thank you much!
We're also using your video and instruction to build a pool deck and really appreciate all the info you provided!
Glad it is helpful and think you much for commenting.
Thank you so much! I'm going to try this in the next 2 months. We just had a pool installed for the grandkids in August.
You got this Mr. Mark
These are the type of videos I stay up all night to watch lol. I can’t wait to get a house so I can try this stuff
Than You for watching and Thanks for the comments. God Bless!
I stumbled across your video and I love it. I thinking of doing this deck myself with the help of my husband. Love the way you built yours. Great job and not too complicated to do. Thanks a lot for the video and sharing.
Thank You Much! Please Like, Subscribe and Share on your Social Media to help me grow this YT Channel. Thanks Again.
I share your video with my two friends already, ty again
👍Thanks you much.
Hello again, my question is starting the frame is the length the 2x4x16 and the width the 2x4x8? I’m doing this project by myself. Ty
The Frame is 8 foot by 16 foot. The Frame on the platform at the steps is 42 inches by 42 inches.
I like the cattle panels. I think I'm going to that too!
Thank you! They are long lasting and easy to do. LOL
I hit the honey pot with your videos this is exactly what I was looking for 👍
Thank you sir, I have other pool related videos in my play list that you may find helpful also. Thanks again and God Bless!
Thank you for some great ideas from NC, getting ready to do a 12x12 on a 24'x52" new pool !
Glad to be of help. Thank you for commenting!
Thanks pops! Now I know how to put up a deck for my little 14x14x48 much appreciated!
Your welcome sir. God Bless!
You are the Papa I aspire to be! I will use this video to build my future decks. Well done sir.
Thank you much Mr. Jermy.
This pool deck looks beautiful definitely adding this to my project list for my new pool!
Thank you.
Thanks sir ima try and make a deck around my pool 🏊 I screenshotted the list of supplies and saved the video for instructions
I always said, if I can do it anyone can.
If you have any questions feel free to ask.
I'll try to answer them the best I can. LOL
This was an absolutely brilliant watch! I can not believe you did this alone in three days! (Obviously you did do it) but wow!!! And I love your humour! So glad I found you absolutely no nonsense straight to the point information 👌 I love the cow mesh idea it looks brilliant I would of never of thought of that!
Thank you very much for the kind words. I just wanted something simple, and everyone loves it.
Small observation, for gate diagonal cross board, I believe it should be the other way so it supports the top and side of the gate and therefore help with sagging.
With that cow panel in it it's not going anywhere, but I see what you mean. Good Eye!
i love the way you talk.........and think
Thank you, I must say, I have never had a woman tell me she likes the way I think. 😂😂
Thanks that helped me. Alot more lumber than I thought it'd be
And it's not cheap now-a-days. LOL
That deck is beautiful and very well made. I tip my hat to you sir.
Thank you very much Carol. We love it.
Paw Paw your video looks more easier so I will try it your way PawPaw thanks for the tutorial
Your welcome and thank for the comment.
Love the cow panels!!!
Thank You!
I built a smaller version of this for my pool. Your video really helped.
Glad to be of help my friend. God Bless!
Thank you so much for your beautiful build. Bet it last a long time
Thank You, It will out last the pool for sure..LOL
What was total cost for everything once it was completed sir?
Approx. 2500.00 in materials.
Love the whole project....Especially the cow panels!!!!!!
Thank you, Ms. Tammie.
Thank you im almost done with mine couldn't have done it without this video!
Glad to be of help. Thanks for commenting You will enjoy the deck as much as the pool itself.
Hello, my friend, I loved your videos all, I started with my Pool construction a week ago, and I think if I don't find your videos before, I saw any progress in my project. Thanks a lot.
Glad to be of help. Thank You.
With lumber prices now I would hate to ask. Awesome craftsmanship
Thank you, Mr. James, Back when I built it the total was around $2500 for everything, including the cow panels. I think lumber has gone down a little bit since then.
I feel like I was working along side him the whole time lol thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you for that comment. Glad to be of help.
Country men will survive......good work
👍 That's funny you said that. I've been looking for a download of that song to use in videos.
With the price of lumber so high , i see why it is called poor boy`s lil homestead . You can go broke quick buying lumber . Great job this pool project has really turned out nice.
That's so true. Thanks, FLPanhandle.
What a beautiful deck!
Thank you much!
