How did the turf underneath fare?

The turf is fine.  Those are beach stones from up my folks way. Should get a patio stone, though.

Holy sh!t, Stu ... that looks outstanding!!  :D :D

I really like the feet on the legs.  Great colour and contrast with the kettle bowl.

Thanks!  While I have been thinking about something along these lines for a while, theres no way I would have done this without seeing your fantastic, yet simple design first.  Looking forward to burning a log or two this evening!

This is a great thread.... I love both designs except it's making my kettle fire pit look a bit amateurish

Isn't yours an 18 made from an SS washer tub?  I totally love that thing!

Slap a pic or two of yours in here so we got them all in one place....... 8)

The SS washing machine cylinder is epic, at minimum !!!!!

Doesn't Golly have one made up too?

I'm using a short arse 18 as a fire pit. If you need a 22 for a base, I may have a  roached black you can convert.

Thanks Joe but I have a few spare bowls, but I haven't found a washing machine tub to fit a 22
