My partner and I decided to build a firepit / outdoor cooking area. We had the space and some old bricks.
The first thing was to dig out a hole to build it in.

A close up of the finished pit. We didn't use any mortar so we can change it in the future if we need to.

And we had to take it for a test run!

I am hoping to make a grill, spit and skewers to use on it as well.
I would love to spit roast some meat on it but we will probably start cooking something easier.
