I came here for concrete work and found some of the most motivational things I have ever heard. I do landscape design and sometimes I do feel trapped. Been in business 4 years and I really need to hear that story. Thank you, if a little less lonely in this field.
Hello. I am looking to do exactly what you did on your video but I don’t own that fire pit ring form. If I was to order all materials from you (30” form for the bricks to attach, 36” form for the outside ring, and fire bricks) what would be the price and will you do the band for me? I’m local in OH and can go pick it up or even able to do everything if you allow me to. I don’t have any means to fo the band to hold the fire bricks in place. Thanks
Yes we will band it up and have it ready for pick up! Give one of our stores a call: Orrville: (330) 682-5678 Cleveland: (216) 573-0770 Columbus: (614) 253-3326
Yes, I would think so. I plan on pouring a small firepit myself, but I'm going to place refractory cement in between all the firebricks before placing the assembly in the concrete forms.
About four months ago I had someone pour my back patio. A couple weeks ago we had some very good weather and I decided to seal the concrete. As I was sealing it I saw tons of map cracking. Is there a way to fix it?
I think one of the most impressive stone industry videos I have ever come upon. No clowning around, no gimmicks, no self hype and promotion, just some solid wisdom and great ideas and practices, thank you, I am going to up my own videos
Hi Jason, quick question, do you sell or have any idea where I could find the metal forms for the fire pit? I saw the metal forms you had in the video and would like to get a set. Thanks!
Hi Frank! We have one new fire ring form left at our Orrville store, you can call the office at (330)682-5678 and ask for Joe to make arrangements! Thanks for watching!
Once you add gravel, the pit is not as deep as it looks. We've never had any complaints about airflow! If you had a deep pit you could incorporate a small conduit for airflow. Thanks for watching!

there are modifications to that which will provide a better controlled, useable, lower smoke, lower fuel consumption pit with less concrete and a better look . . . still a nice pour, i'd like to see a go back video where you went and inspected the floor of that pit and how it's performed, it could be modified without a whole lot of grief, but it'd require a drill and jack hammer :)

Love the Houdini story. Good analogy.
Just stumbled on your channel, this is a great video. Thanks for
Posting this..
Pro tip, put the shim under the strap over the cut piece so it doesn't keep slipping. :)
Great tip, thanks! You're right, that should save a good amount of time.

Wondering if not having refractory mortar holding those fire brings in place will be an issue long term. Looks great. thanks!

wise words..
The fire brick makes this the perfect pit. Plain block or concrete not good. All masonry fireplaces have fire brick in them for specific reason.
how does it get airflow to the bottom?
Once you add gravel, the pit is not as deep as it looks. We've never had any complaints about airflow! If you had a deep pit you could incorporate a small conduit for airflow. Thanks for watching!
I am building a sloped fire pit ! Fire pit is so burn and clear my land and roots so it has big enough also for ppl to visit patio size around
You don't need a band. Just place the bricks on site with some sort of glueing agent. It just has to hold in place while the concrete is poured.
Do you have to use refractory mortal?
No sir, vibrate the concrete to hold the bricks in.
Thank you👏
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!!!
Where can I get a set of those metal forms with asher slate stamp?
Why didn't you leave any holes at the bottom for air to get into the fire? 🔥🥵

Thank you for the video! Could I cut this tube with a dremel?
With the right bit it should cut it fine, just a bit slower!
Im pouring one if these this saturday, what can i spray or coat stamp molds with so concrete doesnt stick? Im pouring the proline fire pit
You want to use Easy Strip on the forms: www.deco-cretesupply.com/products/releases-forms-expansion-wire/easy-strip
