I know this isn't exactly a rail question, but I need to build a pool to go with my rail this coming summer. What materials do you recommand and what is that trap material I see in the video's that people use? Thanks for the help.

use haybails and just get a big enough tarp that wraps over the haybails then fill that baby up with water

Will the trap leak? And are you talking about the traps that are blue from wal mart or any home improvement store? Thanks for the help.

25' 100' painters sheet should retain water well..... we used one on our slip and slide

wiswake, those tarps will leak water and will kill any grass that is being covered

Classy, what do you recommand then for a pool material. Is there any inflatable pools that are long and rectanglar shape, that are not to deep. Thanks

We're building two pools with a rail in the middle for a festival next month, in the same style as the Chad Sharpe Video

which type of visqueen is the best for it, there are quite a few options?
