Kiddie pool plug to drain?

[Ricky T]

Need a cheap plastic kiddie pool for grandkids. Have had trouble in the past draining the thing because of weight without siphoning. Can I cut a hole in that thin plastic and put some kind of plug to drain the thing without having it rip out in short order?

I bet with a few large inside diameter washers and a small boat plug would do the trick.

Cut matching size hole in pool, silicone(or similar) a washer on either side, pop in the boat plug an v`iola!

I just take a bucket and scoop out majority of the water and water the plants/trees in he yard. Takes less than 5 minutes.

But yes I'm sure you could plug it somehow.

Maybe a rubber toilet tank flapper. Cut hole, place flapper in hole(inside), water pressure should hold it place.

You could take an old drain out of a cooler and make it work i would believe. Just a suggestion.

Ice chest drain, threaded kind, hook up a hose to water trees, or yard.

best idea ever. get one of those margarita buckets, enjoy it, then unthread the spigot and you are set. may have to have a party to drink that much tequila however.
