Hi:

I would like to purchase a solar blanket reel that one person could operate from my 15x24 fool oval above ground pool. The local pool dealer has a premium reel for $400. Maybe someone could correct me, but this price seems kind of high? I am in Northern Ontario and this dealer is the only one in the town I live in. Does anyone know of any online pool stores that ship, so I can compare the prices?

My neighbour has a welder and mentioned we could make one for a fraction of the price if we had some plans. Does anyone know if there are plans to make a solar blanket reel kicking around?

Thanks for any information.

Cheers..John
