So a mate says to me, I can get a load of used decking... any use to you?
Never being one to turn down free construction kits, all I needed was something to build.
From decking to "portable" steps, and 107 easy stages:

I wish you'd stop doing stuff like this. You make me feel so inadequate.
(That's a compliment, in case you're in any doubt.)

But going off at a tangent, how do you stop pools like this developing algae in a matter of days?
My wife put up a mini version designed for dogs a few days ago and it is already disgusting.
I used to chuck a load of Milton in.
Somewhat unexpectedly, small pools are harder than large pools. They get warm much more quickly, which encourages growth.
You need:
One of:
Plus some:
Swimming pool chemicals. Readily available on ebay.
The answer is in correct design. There needs to be a slight inclination so the water runs off the end of the planks out of the grooves.
Huh?
you can go water-skiing.
Very good! LOL
Did the dog piss in the pool?
ie, As you face te steps, a slight fall (say from left to right) so water runs out of the grooves and they can dry out,
Good point, hadn't thought of that.
Ordered, thanks!
Of course maybe the dogs will end up chewing the dispenser......
The question was "But going off at a tangent, how do you stop pools like this developing algae in a matter of days?"
What has that got to do with steps, groves or anything other than swimming pools?
Someone bought harry water skis once... he is still looking for a lake on a hill.
Its generally better to stop them going green in the first place. To get them back to clear after is harder, and normally needs a chlorine "shock" plus a dose of algaecide.
