Go to the very top of the page, click on user CP. A page will appear with profile - signature - avatar - etc. in a menu bar. You will want to select signature.

This looks like a neat outside raised fireplace and comes with a spark screen, too.

This looks cool. It folds flat for storage and comes with a carry bag. I also saw one like it at Walmart.

Most of the places that we go to have fire pits.  But there is a lake we go to some times that has undeveloped beach camping, and most people have either a washing machine tub or a such.  If we are lucky, there are steel barrels that are cut in half   that are probably 20 gallon size.  Can't always count on the availability of the barrel ones so we bring our washing machine tub.

I use a hog feeding pan that you can get at any feed store. Mine came from TSC and cost less than $5. you can slip it into a trash bag for transport (cooled of course) and then pack things in and around it. They are exactly like the ones my favorite campgound rents to you.  Hope this helps, CathyMB

Info at the bottom is a signature that you can set up by clicking on user cp on the to right of the page.  Then go to signatures and type what you want.  It will then appear after every post or reply that you make.

Quote from: dkutzWe have camped at a few places that allow fires, but don't have fire pits, OR rent the fire fits per day.  I was looking to get our own fire pit to take with us if we needed it.

Does anyone have any suggestions for CHEAP and good firepits.  Where to buy, what to buy?  Epay?  Craigslist?

Thanks

Have you thought about using the bottom half of an Old Smokey? You might be able to pick one up at a Flea Market or a garage sale.

Most California regulations requiring a metal enclosure are to stop the proliferation of numerous ash pits from desert and foothill campsites.  The simplest answer we use is a trash can lid.  It contains the ashes and is metal.  Now these are becoming scarce due to mechanized trash collection and more tree-hugging feel-good measures to recycle materials like paper and plastic that cost more to recycle than to produce.  City-folks are sure peculiar! :sombraro:

Home depot sells a pan to go under your hot water heater that should work.
