Here I’m replacing our old worn out fire pit with a new modern concrete one. We picked up the fire pit as a kit from a local concrete centre here in Southern Ontario. The kind of place that makes custom concrete pieces for the yard - think bird baths, statues, fireplaces etc.

They had different options like the round one we got as well as square and rectangle. It comes with the white bricks and the metal insert. The only other material we used was a layer of bricks at the bottom from the old fireplace. These were just basic garden edging bricks and you could substitute with another kind you might have around.

The cool thing is if you build these things right you can greatly eliminate smoke which makes it so much more enjoyable to sit around and the neighbours appreciate it too :) I talk about how this works near the end of the video.
