Thanks and me too. Don't mind my dirty doors as they have concrete dust on them from drilling the door frame holes.Originally posted by sweet_magnolia View PostSweet! Can't wait to see it finished!Smokin' in the valley! God bless the USA!!Comment

that's a big mass of concrete - it'll hold heat, don't worry about that

The cement that is in the firepit is mixed with fire clay so it better.Originally posted by curious aardvark View Postthat's a big mass of concrete - it'll hold heat, don't worry about that .

Got my door handles installed tonight so I decided to light a fire to test and here are the results: Lit one chimney of Cowboy bark, left it in the chimney the whole time but the temperature NEVER got over 145 and its been an hour. I did leave the flue wide open and had the air intake 3/4 of the way open which is 2 2" circles in the firepit door. What did I do wrong folks? Thanks in advance.Smokin' in the valley!

I put some small pieces of wood in with the carcoal, then I add more wood as needed.Originally posted by rikerz View Post
I have had mine up over 300. It will get as hot as you want, just add more wood..sigpicComment

also, after you get all that concrete hot it don't take much to keep temp. up.
Just play with your vents a little..sigpicComment

Well, instead of letting the fire completely die out I went out and threw some wood in the firebox that I had lying around from a tree that is shedding its limbs (dieing) and just a few minutes later the temp is up to 183 deg and climbing quickly ! I am guessing just charcoal will not get this big boy up to temp without some wood.Smokin' in the valley! God bless the USA!!Comment

270 deg just 15 minutes later!!!Smokin' in the valley! God bless the USA!!Comment

Thought that I did, I am from Mt. Vernon, 45 minutes south of Lexington and I have the door handles on and the last rack built. Now to the chimney cap with damper and this weekend I should be able to polish the top and stucco the sides for a finish!Originally posted by blues_n_cues View Post
Door Handles: (and yes, that is a welder's chipping hammer with the end cut off, bent and the end welded back on to use as the door latch)
