f. Small dips and hollows may be filled
in, but the soil must be hard-packed
and well compacted with a tamping
tool.
g. Take material such as rock dust or
fine mortar that can conform a solid,
permanent base and deposit this
material around the rim of the basin.
The material used should be spread
around the perimeter of the pool to a
width of 24" (60cm) and a thickness
of 2" (5cm).
NOTE: Bottom rails will be placed
in the center of the perimeter of the
pool, see dashed line. (Image 15)
h. Recheck the outer circle where the
pool wall will be. Make sure there
are no high or low spots. The bottom
edge of the pool wall
must
rest flat
on the ground and have no gaps under
it.
i. Go over the entire perimter of the
pool to ensure that at every 3" the
surface is completely level.
j. Lay out the bottom rails and bottom
plates around the circle.
k. Check out the roundness of your cir
-
cle, by measuring the diameter across
in several locations. Since the bottom
rails do not automatically form a true
circle.
DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP!
Otherwise you might end up with a
slightly oval shape, which can cause
problems later on.
l. Verify the height of each bottom plate
with an optical level. They have to be at
the same height. Adjust height if necessary.

Important:
The out 24" (60cm) of
the circle must be per-
fectly flat. the bottom
edge of the pool must
rest flat on the ground
and have no gaps under
it. Take the time you
need to be sure this
area is perfectly flat and
level.
