that corner looks soooo sweet and fun! I think I may steal your idea when I build mine.
Do you wish you built a matching corner tho? |

It started life as a halfpipe, and I added the corner, and the side.
I plan on completing the other corners, and sides, time and money allowing.
The coping is, -er half round molding, cut from a stair bannister.
The corner was bent after soaking the molding to make it flexible. |

Hey skateight, looks like you are having troubles getting some metal coping on there.
I know you probably thought of this but pool coping might be what you are looking for with that corner and all.
Maybe a member here has a hook up or you could try and score some from a salvage job or something...Just a thought.
With that smooth corner its a shame not to throw down some proper grinds.
Looks like a winner anyway! |

I've tried to find pool coping locally, shipping would be to pricey.
No luck so far. |

just find an old decrepid pool anywhere in town. It doesn't have to be skatable. The coping will pop right off. |

| I remember seeing a DIY mold to pour your own pool coping. May have been a topic here. Idunno |
