I dont know what she likes about it but she will learn her lesson real fast when a fire is going and she tries to jump in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

92xj Posted October 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Lol I was just giving ya heck anyways. I like that pit. And all for just 120$? I know you were, I still have my sense of humor, don't you worry! Yeah, 1.50 for each block, plus I bought a bucket, 4 tubes of concrete adhesive and a gun for them. I am going to take the top two rows off and space the second row up from the bottom out a little to give little vent/air windows to feed the fire. Wanted it tall because we get wind, but I think I am going to need more air flow low to feed the fire. New pics in 30 minutes..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mind at all. 120 bucks and an hour of your time and it can be complete. I did want to get caps to make a little more finished look to it, thats why I got the concrete adhesive caulk, but Lowes was out of caps. This ended up being a good thing, because I am able to arrange the block how I like, to open holes up for more or less air flow when I need it.

dbHunterNY Posted October 5, 2010 Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 No roof for Maggie's castle? Seriously, it came out good. The venting down low will help out a bit when you get more in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
