    Thanks, Ben - I'll try to get it finished on Tues or Wed ( I've got a shoulder issue that is exasperated by typing , ( but might be corrected tomorrow PM)

    Even if the treatment doesn't work, I'll get the info typed up by Thurs.
    Luv & Luk, Ted

    Thanks for the advice, Waste. I was planning to send a picture of the bead, but sending an actual sample is much better.

    Just out of curiosity, since all three will fit into each other's track, would installing liner lock fix the problem of a mismatched bead? Would putting some liner lock in be a good idea even if I have the correct bead for the track?

    Thanks, Jeff

    Gee, Ted. I'm in the talking/thinking stage of maybe replacing my pool next year. With all that experience I wish YOU could be the one who does my next liner! That way I would know it would be done perfectly! We are fortunate to help you helping here on the forum!

    Jeff, liner lock would probably work (or $10 in pennies LOL), but it's best to have the bead match the receiver

    Mom, I'd love to help you with your pool - I actually got to see oneof the TFP pools this spring - he knew I lived close and hired me to open his pool and show him how to properly care for it, maybe my dream of "TrusTed" pool service is closer to becoming a reality - I've still got friends in Mo'town that I'd love to have a reason to visit in ~ April.

    Ben, whatever I do, or don't do, my shoulder ahces (if not worse) - I am going to get a new computer desk and chair on Wed. to try to alieviate the issue. I'm hoping my typing will be more comfortable by Wednessday evening.
    Luv & Luk, Ted

    I wasn't trying to push -- don't do what you shouldn't, please.
