Nice..
My neighbor did the same thing but....View attachment 762833
Trying out a SS clothes washer tub for fire pit. Found a commercial SS stock pot lid to cover it. Good thing it is smokeless and easy to cook on.
Built fires on the ground in the same spot for 40 years. Rains wash the ashes away and occasionally mow over. Any wood or structure near short grass attracts black widow spiders so we have to always be aware. Horses and dogs liked to chew charcoal stubs when cold.
No, but... I was going to have an outdoor fireplace built and found out that it needed a 15' tall chimney for it to draw properly and the shape of the firebox is also important to have the air flow into the chimney correctly. My neighbor has an outdoor fireplace with a 10' chimney and they've had a lot of trouble with getting it to draw correctly.Pretty sweet. I want to do something similar next to the pool in my yard but with a chimney. I've been warned that chimneys are complicated though - anyone ever done such a thing?
