This was my sons senior project in H.S

Sounded like a good idea at the time :lol:

4 tons on rock, mortar and sand later :shock:

You can usually find those round fire rigs all over the place for under 100 bucks and some nice ones for a little more than that.

The slickest cheap setup I've seen was the end cut off of a concrete culvert (probably scrap) set on the ground. this was at a deer camp but one could dry stack rock around it or whatever.

The landscaping place by my house sells stone from previous buildings(some has mortar) you can prob find some nice pieces if going for a cheap, quick solution...2 bags or mortar,stack em and bingo!

these are the said rocks
