How to Make an Easy DIY Firepit Tabletop Cover for Under $30
June 1, 2023 - These supports will be on the top of the cover since they go from one edge of the circle to the opposite edge. Don’t worry I’ll show you how to make supports for the bottom of the cover too. Since I’m making a round tabletop cover for our round firepit I needed to cut it out using a jigsaw.

How To Build A DIY Fire Pit Cover - Addicted 2 DIY
August 1, 2019 - The fire pit cover converts it to a table top, which is awesome! That is, until our monsoon storms decided to blow it away and it broke into several pieces. I decided it was time to build a new one that was heavier, stronger, and could withstand our crazy summer storms. This fire pit cover is a great beginner project and only needs four simple power tools to build it. Below you’ll find what you need to build a cover for a 46 1/2″ round ...

Use a round-over bit in the router to ease the top and bottom edges of the cover for a polished look (optional). Sand the entire surface smooth for a professional finish. A rounded edge looks nice and reduces potential snags and splinters. Making your fire pit cover custom doesn’t limit you to just shape and size.

I have a 32” propane firepit and I LOVE it. Problem is kids and grandkids come over regularly and continue to use it “as a table” which drives me nuts. Anyone have ideas to DIY a top so that when not in use it can serve as a table and be protected? I was thinking of a plexiglass sheet- but not coming up with good ideas. Advice appreciated- TIA!

Look on Facebook marketplace for a round metal outdoor dining table. Take the legs off. Put it over the top of the fire pit. You could use construction adhesive to adhere three or four pieces of pressure treated lumber to attach to the bottom of it that would fit inside of the pit so that it would not slide off.

It sounds like a solid idea!

January 4, 2022 - Place the eight pieces on top of the fire pit, completely covering the top. Place the four 1 x 3’s on top to determine their final length. They will need to be trimmed with the jigsaw. Find the center of the wood that you’ve now placed on top of the fire pit using your measuring tape. You will then need a short length of string and a pencil to mark a radius around the edge to round off the wood for the top.

January 13, 2022 - I have been thinking about making a table top to cover the firepit I created for quite some time now – and this is almost exactly what I had in mind! I may use an opaque colored stain instead (I’m crazy for BLUE in my garden for a pop of color!!)…I built my firepit atop a round brick patio that I laid myself, using old bricks (most of them were free : ) It was a back breaking job several years ago, and I’ve wanted to make a top to act as an “ottoman” / “coffee table” for quite some time now!

I have an outdoor firepit that looks like this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Hampton-Bay-Quadripod-26-in-Round-Fire-Pit-FT-51161/204230474
To make it so it does not fill up with water/snow, I got a "duck cover" from home depot like this: https://www.amazon.com/Duck-Covers-Essential-Round-Cover/dp/B07LFX3YXV/ref=sr_1_16?c=ts&dchild=1&keywords=Fire+Pit+Covers&qid=1614661674&refinements=p_89%3ADuck+Covers&s=lawn-garden&sr=1-16&ts_id=3480670011
I live in Calgary, Alberta. It gets reallly windy here (100km/h gusts) and it snows a lot. The duck cover I got tore at the top where the hoop is, and has torn near the base too.
I'm done with fabrics, what I would like is some sort of metal or plastic cover that just goes over my firepit. Hopefully not too much of an eyesore, but hopefully not too expensive either. I'm thinking something like this: https://bestplants.com/wp-content/uploads/fire-pit-the-firepit-ideas-backyard-design1.jpg I wonder if people DIY covers like this or if you can buy them somewhere?
Surely I'm not the only one who has this issue? Or do other people just typically use a "built-in" lid like https://secure.img1-fg.wfcdn.com/im/80678298/resize-h800-w800%5Ecompr-r85/5628/56288538/Berngerus+Steel+Wood+Burning+Pagoda.jpg

Things that tend to blow away can be secured by tie downs. I might suggest sinking in some eye hooks strategically placed and using steel stranded wire rope if put on "hot". 4 should do. If you you put the cover on a cold pit, any old p cord would do tied with a classic trucker knot. Wind drives me nuts, urgg

I have a large fire pit - I made a cover with 1x6 pressure treated, screwed to 3 more 1x6 pt placed perpendicular. It is cut round to fit over the pit, and basically turns it into a table when the pit is not in use. I covered the whole shebang with the textured plastic sheeting you'd see in like a gas station bathroom, as it's cheap and easy to work with, and keeps water out of the fire bowl.

I’m looking to do a DYI firepit table top cover. Exterior firepit Dimension is 48x48. Interior is 36x36.
What would be a good material to use that is lightweight yet sturdy? I’m looking at falken design aluminum composite material sheet in black. Would that work? Would I have to treat that material or would it be good to go for outdoor use?

I’m also debating if I make the top the dimensions to cover the entire pit or if make a niche the thickeness of the cover so the cover sits within the pit flush to the top. I see some covers for sale on etsy made of 1.5mm carbon steel but that’s running $600 for 42x42

I've been thinking of this project as well. I was going to do a thin plywood with kerdi waterproofing and mosaic tile. I would do a 1 or 2" skirt as well. The waterproof covers that come with the fire tables are SO ugly.

May 13, 2025 - My original fire pit cover did not have a handle but my grill cover does and I like to be able to hang it up by the handle when I'm using the grill so I decided to add a handle right in the center of the top panel of my fire pit cover. ... This canvas is 59 inches wide which is much bigger than the fabric I usually work with. Instead of using my rotary cutter and mat, like I use for most sewing projects, I folded the fabric in half matching the selvage edges and laid it directly on my table (a tile floor works too, shown in this Sew a Silky Pillowcase post).
