    Well, I got the pool up... The foam floor was kinda a PITA overall... but it turned out good, as it is great to walk on...

    The main drains turned out awesome as well...

    But, it would seem like I have too much material across the pool and not enough side to side... But I will have to wait for the sun tomorrow to assess that, as I stopped filling it for the evening...

    I figure I will fill it tomorrow with the sun out... Maybe it will all fall into place and if not I figure I might be able to bunch some of it around the cove on the ends that it is too long... Unless it pulls together I am going to be a little upset...

    But, for the most part, it is 90% done... I still need to put the top rails on and the upper and lower cuffs, but the rest of it is in, the bonding is done and I just have the plumbing for the skimmer and returns to plumb tomorrow as well as install the skimmer and returns...

    Personally I would have felt better if it was all needing to be stretched a bit, but with this excess it is hard to see it fitting properly at all, and I was meticulous about making sure it was 27ft from post to post to verify it was perfectly round, as well as making sure the depth was proper as well. The liner fits the bead receivers perfectly as in no stretch at all, it fits perfect...

    Maybe it just needs to fill with water and will just "fill out"???

    Oh well, not much else to do until it fills...

    I forgot to mention, I got the floor perfect, as in no wrinkles, the slope to the main drains is without wrinkles, just everything turned out great except for the extra on the ends...
