OK I have bought an extra section of garden that i am making into an allotment /chill area and of course I need to burn wood!
I am trying to decide whether to put a permanent firepit in or a metal jobby
Can anyone suggest/inspire me? what have you made that works?
Thanks

I want to build one - with rocket stove heated seating and cooking area. The plans are in my head, but I need to avoid the 'permaculture look' that most folk want to go for. I saw one in Sweden that had open fire, flued under two benches and back up a normal looking chimney above the stove.
One in progress:

Blimey thats impressive!
I am going for the campsite look although I may incorporate the old washing machine drum i have been using as a garden brazier it works really well!
Save cash and re-use the washing machine drum, mine burns beautifully!
I have been toying with the idea of getting one made by a blacksmith. I cant find an American style fire ring you see in their national parks in the UK and they are way too heavy to import.

The ones I saw in Canadian camps were lorry/tractor rims with the middle cut out and a hinge attached to the ground.

this would be perfect, or with a full grill.

That's the most popular method on here and I confirm they work grand.
Uh oh i have found Indian fire bowls.......... Must resist!
You could always get the weber!
