The disaster is over!  My dad came to his senses and wanted to try to fix it first before I'd have to blow all kinds of money on a pool company.

Turns out, I actually did the entire repair myself, he was just there for guidance.  The most expensive "part" was the solvent and glue for the PVC pipe.

I also overengineered the fix by including an extra nut from another union.  This way if the first one ever breaks, the next one just slides in position.  Cheap insurance.

PVC is actually really easy to work with.  It's lightweight as well, and can be used to built lightweight frames for lightweight items.  It's also pretty cheap to get started.
