Yeah it works good, it gets quite hot when you are up close. I want to make it better and double up the plates and cover the holes, so wait for part 2.0
@@majorbelov awesome idea i not a welder but my engineer mate is...how about using a flat BBQ plate that comes with most BBQs..obviously one I have already de commissioned......providing its dimensions line up with my open fireplace..
Did it work?

@@glenndunlop9949 That's a great idea... I see old BBQs on the side of the road all the time. You could join 2 hot plates!

I'm looking forward to seeing how well the one I bought works this winter.
That looks sweet. Could i just buy some stainless steel and wedge it in with bricks for the same effect?
That sounds like a very cost effective idea. I think any metal will help reflect and radiate heat out.
I'm going to use a slab of granite for mine. It should hold up to the heat.
Granite will look very nice!
Depends. I put a granite cover (3/4"?) on my ash pit and it shattered quite quickly.
