Some American made steel studs for a framing project in Houston This contractor uses our studs because they come pre-made to the exact length needed. We saved his crew 2 days of cutting down studs on the jobsite

The power of X, baby! I had an idea yesterday about a “mini” pool company for people with small yards like mine. Thought surely someone on X is doing this. Turns out, Keyan is the man! He’s building a company that productizes mini pools in NW Arkansas (my hometown - lfg) Super cool biz, can’t wait to see what all they do. (Also, the X algo ate it up and pushed our posts to 500k views)

This is my next big move in my business. I’ve been working on the back end for months and it’s getting close to ready to push marketing. Compact pools for the average backyard. High quality, easy to maintain pools that are a main feature of your outdoor living but not a yard consuming headache. There are already plenty of people doing this like Texas MiniPools, Texas Tiny Pools and more. Now I am bringing it to my market soon using my years of concrete and pool building experience to create an ultra refined offering. My plan is to build these pools extremely efficiently, tracking every part and every step and task completed to continuously refine the process. In the beginning my offer will be ~60 days to be safe, with the goal to have a 30 day completion time from permit approval to finished transformation. Taking my knowledge from larger pools that I’ve build, the pools will be constructed using an insulated concrete construction with heat/chill included to give you what I think of as a three season pool, maximizing the time the pool can be enjoyed by your family. Super excited to start marketing this and getting calls from people that want to me to come upgrade their space! (drafted options sheet, 2 x rendered designs, large flagship pool i built last year)

Went to go look at a ranch this morning. Neither the rancher or his cattle had ever seen a Cybertruck before. I would have taken the Sequoia had I known the seller would be there. 🤦🏼‍♂️ This city slicker might be cooked. Offer just submitted. 🤞🏼

Also, in the market today on a rich land deal two years in the making. Investor group we’ve courted for a decade finally bit, commenting they’ve not seen a land deal this de-risked before. Their proposal? Effectively want 80% of the pie. Pass (the beers).

@lgsguy My sister had a pool similar to what I described built 2 years ago and she was around $70k all in with the pavers and landscaping around the pool. The pool is about 14x25

Finally got the stock tank pool put together just in time for the long weekend. Baby girl loves it. Had an idea while floating around in here. I’m sure it already exists. See how small my backyard is? My whole neighborhood is like this. All of north Dallas is like this. Is there a “small backyard pool guy”? Someone who only builds micro pools? I heard a few people in my hood have one. No clue how you get an excavator or any equipment back here. Is this a niche or do all pool builders take on tiny backyard projects?

@lgsguy Talk to some pool contractors at the Jersey shore. Most of the backyards are even smaller than this. They use a mini ex, then use a crane to lower a fiberglass pool over the house and into the backyard.

@lgsguy I guess it would depend on just how big you went. I can get down around 7' deep. If the dirt wasn't ridiculously hard I think it could dig a small pool pretty quickly. Getting the dirt out is another matter. Powered wheel barrows a thousand times.

@keyan_concrete Bad ass, man! This is exactly what I was thinking. You’re in NWA right? (I’m from there originally ha). What’s the market like there? I feel like Dallas suburbs is a gold mine for this

@realnaholmes I can barely fit my trash can through. It would be tight, but possible. Would it take forever to dig a pool with that mini?

@lgsguy That's like a real above ground pool with a liner and pump, very cool. I would think you cold get a mini x in and dig a micro pool. My 1.5 ton mini x has retractable tracks and shrinks down to only 30" wide so it can fit through a lot of gates.

I'd like to meet whoever invented the concept of attaching a porta-potty to a dumpster and then renting them out. If that man is not a billionaire then capitalism has failed us all. What a big-brained brilliant move.
