Fire Pit Ideas...who has one? Let's see yours

Came with the house.

 

@Patriot ?

 

Yes the inside fire pit wall is 46" across.

 

A few guys I know used farm tractor wheels. Then added rocks around the edge. Check Pinterest for ideas.

 

Here, post #32, on sale at Lowe’s, I think I paid 170 or 180 OTD. Done. I burn wood in it and kept it cheap.

Great idea. Would work perfect!

 

Good memory !

 

I only have a large copper fire pit thingy.



Not fancy but does the job. It’s not attached to the ground so I can move around the yard and put it where I need/want it to be.

Not supposed to by I have grilled steaks on it Hate wasting good coals.

 

Just have a copper pot one for now, can’t have holes in the side or it ruins the cool deck. Undergoing a complete landscape renovation, hoping to fit in a nice fire pit, will update shortly.

We use it often, great family time.

 

Pyro monolith fire tower

 

Last one we built before the first snow.

 

I make these and rocket stoves out of scrap tractor trailer rims and brake drums. Pistons and rods came from a blown Tundra motor!

 

Wow, Opus! Impressive

 

I call b.s. Tundra motors don't blow....nice work, looks like a great way to cook a huge pot of crabs or steam clams.

 

Built it around an old heavy BBQ grill that I found in the alley. Has some cracks and separation from earthquakes over the years.

 

Thanks for the feedback! The Tundra motor was from an abused work truck. Brought tears to our eyes when we were asked to swap engines... At least I got some cool project parts!
Brake drum stove/pit prototype. Oldsmobile pistons and rods this time.

 

Very cool pit. Is that a night train in the background?

 

Thanks! Triumph Bonneville, Newchurch Edition. Fun little cruiser.

 

Would like to have a fire pit but with the burn bans we get around here it would not see much use.

 

Another option is a cast iron woodstove. Easy to find for free or super cheap on Craig's list. Most are if you get it out of the house it's yours.

 

That’s cool!!

 

Update - all done. First marshmellows tonight!

 

Pretty basic but suits our needs.

 

Fall/winter upon us, figure bring this thread back to life and with lots of new members joined on, let's see what ya got! I need ideas

 

@Tundra4Pinay

 

For benefit of those who didn’t see, got 36” metal ring from Amazon and trapezoid and regular bricks for around the ring. The first two rows will have a one inch gap to the ring. When I set the ring on the third l row it will come in snug so it doesn’t wobble.

I will put a base of paving sand and a few rectangle pavers before the traps, just so I can have solid base and legs area to scoop ash and charcoal.

I will be building this when I head to my property in AZ, I will take step by step pics for those who can wait. I also think I will lay a bead of adhesive just to keep the bricks stable. And I know others have a different grill setup that will work on this too.

 

Well used and beaten. Me and my 4 puppies.

Got it at Lowes for $94.00, I think.
