Rustic Firepit Ideas | Maryland Shooters Forum - Weapon Discussions & Classifieds
June 28, 2016 - This one is good, because it provides a place to store your wood, so its always conveniently on hand, and keeps any critters from living in the wood because every time you use the pit the heat would kill or drive them out. Looks nice too: This one is the same idea as the animals, except its in a globe shape: Lastly, (for now), if you decide to go with propane instead of traditional wood, consider doing this contrasting color, looks neat to me: ...

April 27, 2025 -

I put together this project after weeks of research and watching videos. Eventually saw a sale on pavers back in April and pulled the trigger. The project spanned around 2 months working on weekends alongside other home projects, as evidenced by a swing set appearing in between the first and last pictures.

I ended up ordering everything from home depot and got most of it delivered. Total pavers used was around 650, and I ordered 750 based on my estimate. I never seemed to have enough sand and made multiple trips to grab more.

I cut the pavers using a wet saw from Harbor Freight, and chose the Herringbone design because I thought it would work well with the smaller blade size of the wet saw. The brick pavers were locked into place using Polymeric sand. I was impressed with how solid it felt after 24 hours.

The fire pit ring itself has a bit of Loctite around the far edges to just hold the bricks in place. It feels very solid but with enough force a brick could be replaced if needed. I do plan on adding a metal ring for the interior of the pit.

It's certainly not perfect, but I am proud of how it came out as a first timer.
