Anyone make fire pits?

[hedge]

I want a steel fire pit for our seasonal campsite. Does anyone know anyone that makes them.

I've found a place in Okotoks but I'd like to see what else is available.

Ps, I'm in the Calgary area (Airdrie)

Determine the size, shape and location of the fire pit. Take measurements (height, width and depth) to a stone yard and select the material for the project.
Palletized stone is a pallet of pre-sorted premium stone. It is more expensive but will save time because the stones are a more uniform size, shape and quality. Have the stone yard deliver the material to the project site.

Make a loop on one end of the string and slip it around the rebar. Loop the other end around a can of landscape spray paint. Mark the circumference of the circle. Excavate the area inside the paint to a depth of 6 inches.

i use the outer ring (2 piece rim) from a massey ferguson tractor. it works great. 10" walls and about 25" diameter

I used 18" air tube from an old bin. It is perforated and the holes are small enough that sparks will not fly through, plus it gives off a lot more heat and light than a solid fire pit. I welded a square bottom on made out of 10 gauge. It is very light and seems to stand up to the heat very well.
