Why did you choose to do a round pool vs a rectangle? I’m contemplating making one for my children..

This year I got a pool liner for a 24' round pool. Last year we used a water proof trap, but it constantly leaked, and the sand washed out from the one side. The pool liner is around $499 from pool supplies canada. The liner wasn't much more then the trap I got last year.

The total price for the pool was around $3500, that's with the pump, sand filter, all the hose and fittings, liner, solar cover, chains and boomer, straps and rachet straps, foam insulation, and few odds and ends needed. The pool kit we priced out was around $7000, this way was half price. The pallets I got them from my work so they where free. The wood boiler was about $1000 to build, stove kit from amazon, 3/4" copper tuning.
