Here is the rest of the story of how this free fire pit came to be.

So you chopped twice.

What a wonderful thing to hear, Thanks shiners.
So you chopped twice. Ahhh yes very punny right up our tacky way. Thanks for the chuckle.:Rofl
Great report....
Thanks G. Actually the grill and pork chops were an alkyhol induced spur of the moment thing that worked out. I love it when that happens.
Wish we could have a fire where I live. The first and last time I built one, 3 fire trucks showed up and about 10 volunteers. The captain made me put it out read me an ordinance from the book and declared that this time he would not write me up but he had better not have to came back again. All for a little fire in a fire barrel.

:santaDat sux Gene ifn ya like it that much let me know after ya finish with the holidays we can build a big ole rip snorter and sit around it and have a few or like in th pic put the grill in the corner and burn sumthin.
Dont know your laws but here we use an old oven grate on top of barrel and have a packnof hot dogs handy. Whrn the trucks come blaring in, they feel pretty jaded when we tell em its a cooking fire. Cant do anything then.Quote:

We'll be good to go as long as the hot dogs or marshmallows are handy just in case.
The fire they made me put out was in a steel drum, sitting on a sand base two inches thick and 6 foot round. I also had a small mesh screen on top of it. One of the firefighters complimented me on the nice set up I had. He seem to feel sorry that I had gotten in trouble.
