  • I make a Metal Firepit to do Campfire and Dutch oven cooking with a swinging pot hanger - repurpose Scrap Metal Project.
    I repurpose old rusty scrap metal, to make an outdoor cook station with a swinging pot hanger and my rebar crossbar with hooks and 4 loose butcher hooks also. We love open-fire cooking and Dutch oven cooking when we are camping, and now with this metal firepit cooking setup, we can do it all at home also, without the need to travel.
    This was an enjoyable metalworking project for me, and even better is this project will be staying home with us, and I think will get quite a bit of use.
    It is made from old rusty loading ramps for loading bobcat loaders onto a truck, and the metal is quite thick, it was to be scrap metal, but I saw the potential of a good project and now I have a metal fire pit.
    It is quite heavy, it is 78 kg (171 pounds). I have a nice spot for this to sit and I don't think it will get moved much.
    The main tools used were a MIG welder, angle grinder, drill, and bench vise.
    Tools / Supplies, I often use are.

    You are a fine fabricator. This is my second video of yours I’ve watch, my first being the welding table build. When I initially saw the shots of this build. I truly thought it was a miniature set! Being so perfect. As a retired fabricating welder i really appreciate your method. Pulling angles and measurements directly from a full size lay-out is something I haven’t seen on any other video. Something I often did with cardboard, on a work table or even the floor. It is refreshing to watch a professional lay a job out and properly execute a plan. It’s hard for me to say continue the great work. Since I feel that’s all you do! Instead I’ll end with a thank you and I’m looking forward to your future offerings.

    • @GavinClarkdiy
      @GavinClarkdiy  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you very much, I am glad you liked it, and coming from a fabricating welder I very much appreciate your very nice comment. Having the cardboard angles helps make the drop saw angle setup easier and more accurate too. I totally enjoyed this build. I wish you the best for 2023.

    What a piece of art! I guess it's been 20 years since my last project. My tilt was toward trailers and BBQ pits. Everything I cut back then was torch, porta-band saw and Dewalt chop saw (like yours but older model). I acquired a plasma cutter, which was a dream come true. I never would've thought of using a grinder with a cut off wheel. That's all I see now. Now that I'm retired, I plan on breaking out the old tools and getting back into it. Going to have to get a bucket of those wheels and figure it out. Great project mate!

    Hi Gavin. Nice project. Very practical too. It came out looking great! Much sturdier and more heavy duty than what you could buy in a store. You should get many years of use out of it. Thanks for the video!

      @@GavinClarkdiy I was also curious about how it might be used... a few years back I built an outdoor cooking fireplace... went a different route to get to cooking spaces for my cast iron... I did a free stacking of cement blocks, bricks a pavers of different types and did an outer and inner shell to the fireplace, cut t-posts to create shelves to support 6x6 inch pavers into 12 inch wide very thick shelves that would hold Dutch ovens on their legs above a roaring fire on the lower shelf and and upper shelf that would hold a couple hundred degrees Fahrenheit for 2 quart Dutch ovens to bake cakes at... the lower shelf was good for roasting and stews in my larger Dutch ovens... I never did the hanging of Dutch ovens without the Lodge tripods and those wouldn't fit in my cooking fireplace... they would work well over my Solo Stove firepits and camping Stoves... I would think your design would fit inside the huge castle sized fireplaces... not something we are allowed to have indoors here due to air quality issues of fireplaces... so if your design was built for outside I am curious about the fire management half of the design... a half fire pit or open fireplace situation... with reflective back walls and maybe a covered area over where the cook and guests might enjoy the fire.... I went with an offset patio umbrella setup... I considered an off set metal awning, just a bit out of smoke and sparks of a roaring fire... the patio umbrella has survived for about a decade of use... very curious about how your design works in practice.

      @@lethaleefox6017 Your system sounds great, with mine, the hardwood log fire goes on top, and you use a shovel to put nice red hot coal from the fire to build a mound to sit the dutch oven on next to the fire and also put hot coals on top of it, if needed to heat or brown the top of what you are cooking, you adjust the heat by using more or less hot coals while the fire continues to burn next to it, if you need more coals they will be there in the fire, the grid is heated the same way. This is outside so smoke is not a problem, with no back on the unit many people can sit all the way around it during or after the cooking just sitting around the fire into the night.
