Mike Haduck a Pennsylvania stone mason builds a gas outside fireplace. All my videos are my ways and ideas. I suggest when anyone doing work to consult outside professional help.
I agree with Leo! Planning a DIY outdoor fireplace on my farm property. using fieldstone that has been collected over the years as the fields were plowed. Your video answered so many questions.
I explained it was a fireplace for a gas insert. but my feeling about an outside fireplace is anything that would work is fine as long as it does not cause any danger. thanks mike
I Like Your Footer! I've Never Been Sure of How Extensive it Had to Be.. Here in Northern Illinois the Frontline is 42". I'd Seen a Different Fireplace Video you Did Where you Talked About the Gravel & Said Like Railroad Tracks. I Wasn't Sure What to Do About Base. I've Got Tonnage of All Sorts of Good Stone. You Got Me Thinkin..
Sir here is very cold in kashmir...➖18🌡unfortunately we don't have any concept about indoor or outdoor fire place .....please provide me plan and guidence of indoor fireplace.......
Mr.Haduck,Your 3 videos left me with a lot of questions.You did not show how to make the inside with the fire brick but I got the just of it.If making chimney can I use firebrick all the way up through the roof?Will I still need a flu?How is the air vent put in and vented?Is only firebrick for chimney safe in attic?Can I use a wood burning stove firebox for my chimney & brick around it?How do I know what size flu I need?When making cut in roof for chimney do I need to keep the brick a certain distance from the actual roof?Can I place wire mesh on the chimney to keep birds ect from making nest inside?Can I use regular brick or does it have to be fire brick because I'm sure in old days fire brick was not available and regular brick or stone was used.How do I add a damper in my chimney?When my dad built our fire place he used regular brick I am just not sure about what went inside the chimney we did not help build that part.I do know he bricked all the way through the attic and up the roof.I want it on an outside wall what do i need to do to prepare the wall?Do I need to make a frame away from the wall and brick around that because I can remember him making frame before the brick work.
Hi Kathleen, anymore you have to check with your local inspector to see what is allowed in your area, the fireplace I built there was for a outside gas, inside is a whole different world, most that do inside use stainless steel, chimneys everything is changing I hope it helps thanks, mike
The fireplace portion of it looks good but why did you stop with no chimney for the smoke to go away? At that level the smoke with hit you right in the face!
are there any brackets that would be required to keep the stone and brick together? Or what would you use if you were to add a fireplace to an existing home to make sure it's sturdy and safe?
Mike, your first fireplace had an angled wall on the inside of the chimney, this smaller one did not. How do you prevent smoke from backing out the front of the fireplace?

+amber combs I haven't build a real fireplace in a home over 20 years, everything went to gas. and stainless steel. I show some ideas on part 1 and 2, that is all I can say. thanks mike
What do you mean by putting your best stones? Do you mean best looking? Or does it pertain to size/shape? These videos are great, I can't wait to try to build my own.
when I get a load of stone I always separate the ones I want to use for certain things. So I saved the best for the top and the arch. thanks for the comment mike
Hi Tom, it is just a concrete mix, and in that case I did stick in in, mostly because it was a small job and wanted to get done, otherwise I would have left some rebar up like I did in part 1, thanks mike
Wow, Nice work! I like your style and I also like that it's a mini fireplace, not too many of those around an I am sure you can get so good heat off of that. I did a smaller one also, it's not as high as most because I have an HOA to contend with, but here is mine build. My father laid block his entire life, and i was most of the time his hod carrier But I have built a few of these myself. ua-cam.com/video/m4r6Kr1Plno/v-deo.html

Hi painter, it's a gas fireplace, thanks Mike
@@MikeHaduck I see. I guess I missed that part.
are there any brackets that would be required to keep the stone and brick together? Or what would you use if you were to add a fireplace to an existing home to make sure it's sturdy and safe?
If this was a genuine wood burning outdoor fireplace ...the only difference would be fire brick instead of cement ?
Hi Donny I would say yes, more or less, thanks, mike
@@MikeHaduck thanks Mike for all the knowledge and videos as well new school vs old school, terrific insight . Respect
Great job! How big is the fireplace please?
Hi Tarek,, I can't remember maybe 5 wide 3 deep and 4 high?
Funny, funny, funny. Nice touch with the pig. NO, I'm not talking about my ex-mother in law.
thanks Two legs, I agree , lol, mike
Great video. Can you do the same plan and use it for a wood burning fireplace?
Hi Andy, Maybe if it was outside it would be similar, there’s a lot of different ways to build one, but this one was just for gas, thanks Mike
That naval training must have gave you the ability to to do a great job ,regards ex RN 64 -72
Thanks Alex, 72 -75, mike
Thanks Mike. :)
Mike, your first fireplace had an angled wall on the inside of the chimney, this smaller one did not. How do you prevent smoke from backing out the front of the fireplace?
The end made me lol I want to recreate it for my instagram
Thanks, Mike

thanks mark, one of my biggest fans lol, mike
whats the mixture for the base made out of? and do you let the first layer of bricks stick in the mixture or wait till it dries? thx
Hi Tom, it is just a concrete mix, and in that case I did stick in in, mostly because it was a small job and wanted to get done, otherwise I would have left some rebar up like I did in part 1, thanks mike
