thank you so much for teaching us how to make a simple firepit Mine turned out perfect thanks to you
I'd like to build one of these that I can also cook with. Cool vid.
I was made it too. just used Woodprix instructions. just click the pig on that website :)))
This time I'll use woodprix instructions to make it by myself.
biggest tip is dont buy river rock
it shows how it's down but failed to show how you dug up the circle. things to do and not to do.. I mean this was helpful, but what is the process like before you dig up the circle bud…
can someone explain how you would clean the ash after several burns with that stone in the bottom? There is no way it will all drain
Check woodprix handbook if you want to make it cheaper and better.

Check city/local ordinances. This looks way too close to fence/shrubs.
Why did you chip off the lock on the brick?
where did you buy the stones, and bricks? what type are they?
Damn u otta breath bro. Lol
I'm sorry but this guy looks like he walked outside the office for the first time. 😂

Would it be beneficial to include a few air channels in the first course as a means of improving combustion so oxygen can enter the bottom of the fire?
Great videos!
What are the dimensions on the bricks you're using? What is the total diameter of the circle?
I found this information helpful http://www.blog.thefirepitstore.com/f%D1%96r%D0%B5-pit-basics-and-safety-using-yours/
Thanks for this, if I hadn't known about the river rocks, I probably would have chosen the cheapest, simple kind of rocks for our fire put. We are getting ours built today so that it is ready for the 4th. Kids are excited and want to start meltin' marshmallows in the pit.
This looks so nice, I wish my mum would let me build one similar in our garden it would make it look so better
I like the stone base , very natural
My simple fire pit? I cut down a tree, piled wood on stump, lit it, the stump caught on fire, burned down into the ground. Quick fire pit where the stump once was. Benefits? Stump is gone, didn't cost me much, just a few cases of beer & cigars, sitting around BS'n with buds. Now, I have a hole in the ground, 4 feet across and it is easily cleaned out when fills with ash from other fires.
I'm planning on building one. does this need a small drain or something? you know, for the rain? I live in a tropical country with heavy rains :/
As an actual landscape mason I can tell you that this video is full of bad information.
yes every thing looks level till earth quake get it level and dont detail it because earth quakes coming or the tornado
Thanks for the tip on river rock exploding, never would've known that until it was too late. Appreciated!
What about a metal fire ring or fire bricks? Dont need them or??
