This sounds very similar to the birth pools we use in homebirths in Perth. We now have about 8 of them and they are always in demand. Very easy to transport, assemble, made different sizes by removing/adding panels, lined with disposable plastic for good infection control. I personally made 2 of them a few years ago. I have also passed on the dimensions and method of construction to many people. It all came from the design of a 'Dad' in Fremantle about 20 yrs ago Good luck in your search for the right one for you. Cheers, MM
Made from marine ply, laquered, stainless steel posts, very easy to assemble/disassemble. Can also be made smaller by just taking out a few panels. Let me know if you want his details.

The ones used at Mullumbimby were designed for the rooms, and are a bit lower and smaller than the other pools hired out for homebirths. The woman to contact about these is Gayle on 6684 7056.
