    Finally, a YouTuber who did not waste half the video on B.S. Great job!
  • Bought the Fremont kit - just noticed there are two types of brick layout. The one here is using almost all rectangular stones, while there is also one with angular/trapezoidal stones. Would have loved the option of which stone we would like. Can’t wait to start my build this week

    Not only is this a cool build, the music is smashing.
  • @TheKahu78
    Dude I'm getting one of these to put with my pavilion I'm building next year!
  • what kind of sealant/adhesive are you using, and does it have to be able to withstand high heat? Do the fire bricks require a different adhesive than the stones?

    Nice job.....a little advice that goes a long way from a 50 yr experienced mason. Sponge off the block and the married block where the adhesive will make contact. You can brush those blocks off with a brush till the cows come home but nothing will make adhesive bond like moist contact with a cured masonry material. Bond two pieces cleaning only with a brush and another set with the block that was sponged moist. Let them cure 48 hrs. Now try to separate them any way you can or want (hammer and chisel etc.) The moistened blocks will fight you every inch of the way to separate them. Still a nice job you did there.

    Is that subfloor adhesive you are using? I spent my younger years building fireplaces a many. This is really ingenious and well thought out. Great job.
