Is This A Good Idea?

Hey I'm new to this forum..Been looking and reading around..Seem like this is where u learn the most about gardening in general...Anyways How yall doing?

I have noticed in hydroponiv theres always something else you can buy that will be "Great for your growth"...After being victim to a lot of sales pitch i started brain storming more before i bought anything...Latest brainstorm..

I'm interested in a ebb and flow system...The trays run 200 buck...Can Modify a inflatable swimming pool have it sitting on 2 fold out tables and draining into the res...I mean i know its possible and the potential leaks without sealing it properly hawever i'm inquiring to the experience because thing never go like they should....also will the pvc plastic be danderous to the plant..I hear flip flop stories..

Edit: Sorry, I have no advice of my own. I've never made one out of a kiddie pool.
