Mark it - HOW?

They make these items called Felt Tip Markers, They can be used to draw
shapes or to write on objects....

First grab your camera and take pictures of the items as they sit.

Next pick one of the joints on the pool and start with a simple number
and arrow matching scheme.

(like Rich shows)

So you take one of the uprights, tag one end as the bottom, then mark
the top where the pieces join under the trim caps.
Mark the trim caps and sections as well, and make SURE you get all the
parts. Most of the older pools have a rim and brackets on the bottom and
they may be covered with sand/dirt. There are usually a few cross pieces
as well.


I got called on that once too.

Might be a good chance to discuss technique?

How do you mark something you are going to take apart so that you can
put it back together again?

Easy you use number/letters/combinations and if you really get stumped
add colors to the mix.

For the deck it will be easy, unless it's a huge deck you can probably
move it in 4 - 6 pieces.
