From Trash Pit to Fire Pit Timelapse

Update 2022: Still burning heavy with lots of brush from the yard. Have done multiple fires where it's completely full and fire is spilling out. Brick hasn't deteriorated and I have had the chance to clean out the ash a few times to add to the garden and compost. So far working as good as the day I built it. Heavy heavy rains will fill it but drains over the course of the day. Elevated the center of the pit to add a mote-like perimeter in the pit so I can burn smaller fires while it drains. Added a follow up fire pit video of it burning if you want to see it in action. https://youtu.be/HD477HS6tjY

Did anyone notice how fantastic and healthy his soil is!

Can't believe you did all of that in just over 7 minutes, also can not believe that song lasted the entire video...

I was sooo bummed out today. came across this video and the music in the back ground totally changed my attitude and now I am smiling. Thanks for the videos

Dude! You brought enjoyment back to time lapse! Great work man! 💪

Wish every instructional video was this straightforward. Thanks!

I plan to show a few of the steps to my local fire dept. and get their feedback. My back is breaking just watching all of the labor involved. I'll definitely be borrowing my neighbor's tractor and 6" bucket on my pit. Great planning and execution. Thanks for posting.

The way you work and go at it hard is one in a thousand.. 💪🏻👍🏼

Cool video! Many years of enjoyment!

Great take on a Dakota Fire Hole/Pit. Never occurred to me to run drainage outa pit to a dry well but now I'm thinking about how to retrofit it into mine.

Great Work! Enjoyed the progression. Thanks for sharing, You guys worked great together also!

Great job. I used this to guide my pit.

Oh my goodness, at 1:29 I started to think about how luscious your soil is. I'd be gardening in a second with that dark rich stuff!

RESPECT the work. Great job.

Love your work ethic buddy!! Thanks for the tip !!

Good job! I was hoping you'd show us your first fire at the end 🔥 lol 😆

Great job, it looks so much better

Great job. Turned out awesome! Enjoy!!

Love IT...You did great and the Video shows the hard work you both put into the final product! Many Happy Smores to you Both! Congratulations on a job well done!!! Enjoy!!!

Good job, well done. Will need to fix up my pit now.
