Pool Coping - Natural Stone
Figured I would share some picts of our current build. Material is Thermal Bluestone that I rock-faced for the customer. First pict with the stakes is for layout purposes.

Re: Pool Coping - Natural Stone
The pool looks great! The designer of the house should be drowned in the pool, though.

What's wrong with the design of the house?

Re: Pool Coping - Natural Stone
There must be a 5Gal bucket's worth of mud in the damn pool. Believe it or not, some of it started to harden on the bottom! I cant understand how the sand retained any of the cement underwater!?!? I'll post finished picts tonight.

Re: Pool Coping - Natural Stone
Nice clean work. I usually cut a circular stone and drill a hole in it to replace those white plastic caps. They always look out of place.
