Dom Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I was at Tractor supply yesterday and they have a barrel stove that looks cool.This got me thinking about outdoor fire places/fire pits.For many years I have been using an old truck wheel for a fire.I have an old oil tank and think I will try to make a fire pit/smoker out of it.Has anyone done anything like this if so what or how would you use for the chimney?I was going to try using an old muffler that I have. any other ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Real_TCIII Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I was visiting a friends beach house and noticed an old Pennsylvania stove rotting away on the edge of the property. I brought it home and power washed it and it's my new fire pit, it's sweeeeeeeet. In my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it looks awesome in the yard I wouldn't use in the house,but would have no problem using outside I would look into getting a gas logset and enjoy on the patio.
