Pool Opening 2024, Part 12 - Brushing The Pool, Using The Right Tool For The Job

Originally recorded May 30, 2024.
A lot of times, the manual vacuum head is just too big and clumsy for certain jobs. Sometimes you'll get a line of dirt in the pool you need to pick up. Or, you may have algae along a seam or other line that you need to get rid of, and you need something with more precision.
Well, they make such a device! This little vacuum head is super convenient and works a treat! I found it by accident one day while browsing other pool items I needed, and for a few bucks, decided to try it. Once you have the right tool for the job, there's just no using the wrong one. The right tool makes the job go much faster and easier, so we can get back to ENJOYING the pool, rather than working on it.
Here's a small vacuum brush similar to the one I used (no longer available, but you can search for something similar):

Nice work overall, but see I think you need a Millennial to do some stuff as well after that.

That might actually happen, after much cajoling. If I were relying on a Gen Z'er, I ought to have my head examined because nothing would get done.

Wrong analogy for the main drain. Think of it as a black hole that sucks up everything in its immediate vicinity.
Hope you had a nice 4th of Juslime. Did that happen already or is it happening this weekend?

[@jaykay18]

Same kind of idea, but you definitely are _more correcter._
Yes, had a great time. Piefest, slimefest, and it wouldn't be a party unless something got broken. And it did. Not the A/C this time but another domestic system. I fixed it up this morning. Video someday.
