- The original DIY smokeless fire pit that everyone copied. Want to know how to make a DIY Smokeless fire pit that actually works? I added the crucial part to make my fire pit smokeless that most people forget. If you're building a fire pit check this video out. I’ve got lots more DIY outdoor projects coming up so make sure you don’t miss those. For this video I even made my own concrete paver caps for the fire pit. I'll show you how to make concrete forms so you can make your own pavers as well. It's super easy using foam insulation sheets. If you want to have less smoke around a fire make sure you use dry wood. Using green wood will create more smoke. Make sure you build a fire that burns efficiently so it can get lots of oxygen to burn off all the fuel. 👍 SUBSCRIBE: bit.ly/2Iy7PK3

Thanks for sharing your creative ingenuity.
Never had a fire pit. Never wanted one. Never knew smokeless ones existed. Never watched a video on one. Watched the whole thing and now it’s on my todo list. Thanks a bunch TH-cam.
Lmfao. I was like I guess I'm making a smokeless fire pit !
Nicest thing it ever did for you……. :)
Love fire pits! Had one at the last house and now I'm considering a Solo Stove
Man, TH-cam is expensive.
Concrete likes to explode under high heat.
I was lost until you started talking to the mold, “Please be good, don’t break, etc.” I perked up then, thinking “Finally, a technique I’m proficient with.”
This video inspired me to make my own fire pit. Thank you so much. I would like to share some tips. When using the DOW foam board for your mold make sure you put the concrete on the clean side. I did a full circle instead of the 4 pieces and when I took it out of the mold, the cement had absorbed some of my trace lines, the barcode and DOW logo. I tried to sand it off but it's deep-set and I will have to paint it. Also, I used contact cement at first to attach the pieces and the glue ate away at the foam. I ended up securing it with screws and then caulked the seams. Ultimately it came out great and everyone is amazed that I did it myself.
PL 300 it the non melting foam adhesive. Its blue too
Fun fact: The oelic acid in PAM reacts with the lime in the concrete to create a thin layer of soap. That's what causes it to release from the mold. I worked as a chemist for a company that basically made industrial "PAM" for concrete molds.
when we poured concrete for a new barn addition we just sprayed the forms with used motor oil/diesel fuel mix and it worked good.
@@djomegaminus Use corn oil. It's non-hazardous, biodegradable and environmentally safe, and acts as stated above due to the oleic acid in it. No need to worry about the metals and preservatives in motor oil.
@@rabidhellhound9714 used motor oil is free!
@@djomegaminus But unhealthy if your kids are going to be around it. Just looking out for you.
@@rabidhellhound9714 how dumb are your kids that they risk being contaminated from used motor oil? If a kid drinks or licks used motor oil, then you have a bigger problem than the motor oil.
Awesome!
If someone’s really worried about the spacing of the bricks removed on the bottom. Just remove the three and spread your other bricks out instead of having three big holes have a bunch of small holes between each of the bottom bricks, basically divide the space between them.
Also you can put the shredded fiberglass in the concrete mixer, they sell concrete reinforcement fibers that are already shredded that is pretty much the same thing and comes in a bag. But you dump it in with the mix in the mixer and it sticks through all of the concrete.
That usually shows in the finish
What Shane said 👆
I would have liked to have seen a final test with large logs like you had in the beginning smoke-filled pit. In order for a true test, all conditions should be the same. The use of twigs/small pieces of wood doesn't convince me. The finished product looks great though.
Yes! I tried this out and it’s definitely not smokeless with regular size firewood.😢
I really like this guy! He's funny but not too goofy. Very smart and handy too. He inspires me to do some of his projects at my place. Very entertaining and fun at the same time. Remember; Confucious says, "if you can't fix it with duct tape? You ain't using enough duct tape, my friend."
💯
You can't argue with success! Love the before and after videos side by side, the left one really smoky. I thought your idea of making the top holes large was interesting allowing lots of second-burn air in; Smaller holes might show more of a visual fire-jet appearance but might not burn as completely, also might cause leakage through cracks around bricks. In any case, I think this is just really fun and I love your sense of humor! Great video and super fun project! "Those who can, do! Those who can't, criticize!"
This Guy is a first class presenter, so much more interesting than many others.
I know, I love his style!
he's actually very funny
Another hint, you can buy Fiberglass particles to mix IN WITH the Concrete. Easier and will make the WHOLE Project stronger.
be carefull with that, you might get a carcinogenic result during your first couple of fires

it would be much stronger with two reinforced bars across, better than fibreglass which is for hair line cracks and not for reinforcing concrete slabs.

Such a nice looking DIY smokeless fire pit. Those custom cap stones really set this one off. I just might have to go this route as I haven't been satisfied with what I've been seeing for cap stones
That "no I haven't seen it" just deserves a subscribe man, awesome

While the ad was playing, I read ur comment & just by the way u describe this him. I'm subscribing his channel.. 👍
Bum boy
I’m just jumping on here to say I followed this video just about to a T over this weekend, and this 100% works. And it makes sense why it does when you understand the physics of it. Thanks HAXMAN!
If you taper your molds just a little (aka Draft Angle) they come off easier - especially deeper molds.
These cap stone molds worked easy because they were shallow and you used a mold release, but
the draft angle is just a tip for future projects.
You can also put a hole in the mold and use compressed air (or water) to push the castings out.
Fun video! Being the housewife, I have used a dustpan for removing ashes from our BBQ grill and our fireplace (so I have not complained to my spouse about abusing/losing it). Maybe using a dustpan instead of the dog-food scoop could work. (Some dust pans are rather narrow and could make concrete spread better.)
Just an fyi on these stock rings... The sizes vary by a few inches because multiple rings are stacked within each other for shipment from the supplier. So dont be set in stone (pun intended) about the number and layout of blocks you will need, just get your ring and adjust the blocks as necessary.
Jon, you are on another level. Thanks
This is true I just bought one yesterday and they were all labeled 3" but clearly different
To texture the concrete on a drive way,small size 1/4” rock salt use to be used and troweled in. Next day you can broom and hose off the driveway. This also works on pool decks. Looks really good
Please make a video cleaning and organizing the shed!
That would be sooooo satisfying!
But in time lapse, so it looks super fast and easy!!👍🏻
I was skeptical at how this would turn out, but it looked great, and it functioned really well. Top quality DIY.
Great video and I love the foam board. Much easier than the way I do it now. You can also use a mortar mix with a releasing agent for the top. It will pour like pancake mix and it's ready to go in an hour. You can also skip the fiberglass addition. Check it out.
You're a natural teacher. Thanks for doing what you do!
I’ve used old wire coat hangers instead of rebar for small projects. Great video it’s Memorial weekend here on the California central coast and we get overrun with tourists. I’m staying home and building a smokeless fire pit. Thanks again for the really well done video.
Great idea on the hangers! This project is on my list soon. Wondering how difficult it is to bend rebar? That could be another option for reinforcement.
Then burn wet wood to drive the tourists away !🏃
Awesome video and content. Much appreciated! From a structural engineer ~ counterintuitive approach to strongest concrete possible is to keep the chemical reaction of the concrete curing going as long as possible. Where the driest concrete mix provides the strongest result, as soon after the surface of the concrete sets up, saturating it with water (as long as it will not remove or wash away the outer cement material) will keep the curing process going. So putting wet burlap or even submerging in water if practical, will get you more strength. Loved this video, learned so much!
Thanks and thanks for the info!
Pretty cool build, esp the venting technique! One thing I do when I mix concrete or cast stone seating is I a get a gallon can/jug of brake rotor shavings from a brake shop, put it in the water for 3 days that you are using for the crete or sand cast mix. Gives the stone look great color and does not bleed off after sealing the surface with concrete sealer
This was actually my next to do project. I was totally going to just slam the pavers in a circle and call it good, but I think I can do this! Thanks for the video!
Here's another method to try to improve your control over the route the air takes in supporting the burn. Place the long burning pieces of wood on the bottom of the firepit and decrease the size of the wood as you build up the pile in flat layers, with small spaces between them. Now, your kindling wood is on top of the next largest layer, right on top of the pile. This is where you light the fire. Think of how a candle works: there is no smoke because all of the unburnt gases in the heated wax under the flame have to pass through the flame, and are burnt up. Smoke is off-gassing of the burnable material in the firewood, and it is not being burnt if it blows away as smoke. With this inverted method, the kindling burning heats up the material underneath the initial flame, and most of the gasses produced are burnt up in the fire at the top of the pile, By the time the pile is burnt, you will have produced some very hot coals, when they have cooled somewhat you can build another virtually smokeless fire by adding dry wood from big to little pieces on the coals, then relight kindling the top of the. Give it a try; it's easy to do, and you'll get much more fire and much less smoke from your wood, with virtually no extra work except building the fire upside down. This might even make your fire ring work even better! This method also drastically reduces smoke in wood stoves. especially when starting one.
I saw a video that concept is used in drafting. The guy dug a hole out side of the fire pit under the bricks. I cant remember he may have put a concrete tube in it but it came up like a pipe. I dont rember exactly but it was supposed to act like a flu, a draught system. Like you are saying how to stack the wood. The air draughts in what you describe. The big iron rings at campground just have one or 2 U shaped holes cut into side and at bottom. You keep it clear of wood and ash to help fire to burn. Im no expert.
Appreciate the efforts to entertain and educate. I especially like the fact that you are stringing videos together. Taking the firepit area and then adding lights. Allowing the project to grow with each video. You earned the like and subscribe.
I don’t know why this landed in my recommended videos, but I’m happier man for it.....”No I haven’t seen it.” 😂 You’ve earned my subscription sir.
Because Google or Apple heard you talking about a camp fire or Fire pit or too much smoke etc. They are always listening...

You were probably looking at the Solo Stove Smokeless fire pit like me and not wanting to pay $300-$400. The internet can read my thoughts of thinking how to make my own.
Yes.. me too
I just found this guy today & this is only the second video that I have seen of his & he is fast becoming my favorite. I believe that he can do about anything! God bless you and your family🛐
Nice. Perfect amount of explanation , humor and use of stuff on hand. Thanks!
Excellent mix of accents. Pretty funny to hear someone else celebrate in a Scottish accent or other foreign accent. It’s fun! You had fun!
Scottish accent haha
I've seen a lot of DIY channels , when you incorporate your family into it, it's amazing . I've mentioned your channel on Facebook to incourage family more into anything you do . Inspiring.
Wow, thank you
I know I thought of his kid when he was adding the texture. That looked like fun.
Thanks for your demonstration. You kept the entire process entertaining and informative. Love the bits of humor! Keep up the good work.
Did a variation of this with field stone. Works amazing!! Thanks Haxman!!
Thank you for the video!
I tried using a rigid pink styrofoam I had around. I bought contact adhesive, and it melted the foam. Ended up using some thick MDF and holding it together with fasteners.
The way I made my existing paver brick fire pit into a smokeless is i dug a foot or two deep hole inside of the pit and then another hole of equal size two to three feet away and then made a 3" tunnel connecting both pits and ran a 3" pvc drain pipe through the tunnel and put a 90 degree angle coming out of the second pit and then buried that pit and cut off the pvc sticking out flush with the ground to protect it from the mower. It works great as long as you know how to stack fuel properly for a smokeless pit.
I’m pretty sure my city zoning won’t let us do that. 😊
So I just started a backyard project where I am going to have a fire pit and this video popped up, I will definitely take this into consideration when building it.
I forwarded this video to a friend. This is a very informative video and hopefully he will use your advice. I hope next time we visit his home we will truly enjoy his beautiful fire pit minus the smoke!
Using fiberglass is good, but you don't have to rip it up like that. Since the concrete is the matrix, it will flow and form around it. Cutting it into 6" wide strips is much better and cleaner. You will get a stronger final product as well. Another tip to increase strength would be to use ground-up ash from your fire in your concrete mix.
I'm interested in how the ash helps strengthen the concrete?
Great step by step guide. I just took mine out of the forms and rinsed them down. They too look "A-Mazing"! I'm going to water them for a week before my first fire to cure the concrete. Thank you for the entertaining and helpful instruction. Much appreciated.
I loved the "Collateral Damage " in the shop & the wife asking 4 the "Dog food scoop". It was a great & successful video. I laid these pavers for years. Wish I had made caps like u did here!!
VERY nice work! Another project to add to the home project list! Thanks for sharing!
a little angel named perfection gets its wings when a builder says.. "yep I'm going to redo this ".
sick build!
Thanks!
I was able to get the blue foam from Lowe’s, but the contact cement I bought melted it. I saw others were having that issue too. So what I ended up doing was skipping the glue and just using duct tape for all the molds. Worked great!
Get a hot glue gun. They're like duct tape and zip ties, you'd be surprised how many uses you find for it. It would perfect for making foam molds.
Fantastic job and idea. I will be for sure making my pit like that.
Thank you
Great vid, I'm going to give this a go once our spring arrives.. thanks for sharing your knowledge.
A quick suggestion: Before putting the ring in place, coat the inside with vegetable grease or lard. The first fire of any consequence will seal it from rusting and can be re-applied for future protection. The black patina will absorb heat energy and help to reduce smoke.
Thanks for idea
Yea... that ring won't last a year....
@@robertmueller6979 Really? I've had that exact same ring in my yard for the last 4 years, no rust. Thinking about doing what he did with the landscape blocks.
Not everyone lives in a desert...
@@robertmueller6979 I've had a cheap Black Friday Home Depot fire pit that sat out in the elements since 2014 and the bottom finally rusted through completely this last fall. I think a good thick ring with no bottom would last a quite a bit longer.
Dude - I really enjoy the videos you make. They are very well filmed and also extremely informative. Keep doing them please!
Did not know about the fiberglass. So good to learn this stuff. I have never made anything with concrete but I keep wanting to.
Owesome. Thanks to you i just made my own fire pit with a 200L barrel and 40 holes of 2.5cm and it works just great. Thumb up for your video.
"No I haven't seen it". I think every man on the planet, no matter race or age, knows this moment well.
You could be talking about world domination and about to invade another country and that question will come out of no where. I will give a like and a share out of basic male respect.
That last comment earned my like and my subscription!
Super entertaining practical videos! Have you considered using the bricks in such a way as to force the incoming air in at an angle so that all air inlets work together to create a vortex - driving the general direction of the combustion in a counter/clockwise direction within the pit. Done correctly - you may not need the metal liner at all. Extreme, fast combustion would literally create a fire tornado in the pit (& how cool would that look)!
Your molds and templates instruction is very helpful! Thank you, Luv it!
Great presentation! Thank You! Now I'm going out and building one!
That looks amazing! A couple of minutes into the video I'm thinking "I can do this!". By the end, I felt like I'd watched Merlin perform a miracle.
First time I've ever seen an Aussie Scotsman from the south.
Yeah I was giggling at the accents, and couldn't tell if he was going for well travelled or something in particular!

That’s so awesome to hear! Except the pain part. 😁
Some one should make those top parts like you made.
So much work.
Excellent job.
Dude I tried it with 7” x 12” just threw them to see if the concept would work and it works awesome. Love the idea and concept. I am super impressed on how great this works
What did you use as the cap, the top pieces?
@@timhart5354
I had landscape stones about two levels high then just thru on 7x12 rectangle along the top all the way around to see if it would work and it does. But I have made a new fire pit. Using the ring but I dropped it down a bit from the top so I would not have to drill holes I have small gaps in between some of the bottom row but I need to make all blocks on the first row have gaps to allow more air in and I still have to add the top caps similar to what you did with the concrete caps. I’ll let you know how it works once I have it done 👍
@@timhart5354
I also lined the inside of the fire pit with the 7x 12 laying horizontally so that the top caps 7x12 would match the same profile
This is the old fire pit I am talking about
Can’t really explain with out a picture can’t send picture on here
I did this last year. And I love it.I chiseled the blocks he took out I cut in half so there were a half block every 4 block. So then there was( 2 ) 4 in holes between the fire pit for cool air to enter the pit. With no big gap.
One of the next things on my to do list is learning how to weld. It is such an awesome, versatile skill.
Great project and I'm glad to see you donned eyePRO. I almost lost vision in the L eye for not wearing while drilling metal.
Really enjoy your videos. Curious, I've seen other smokeless designs with holes at the bottom of the ring -- I believe to supply air to the fire -- and the upper holes to provide the "second burn". I believe the Solo stove does this. Did you intentionally leave out the bottom holes?
I felt good in the first half then this guy turned DIY up to 11 haha great project, love the Pam trick
Yep, got me at the custom concrete part.
I really liked this DIY video. A nice user friendly and humorus display on how to improve the fire pit experience. Ours is very smokey. Time to crack open the bag of concrete.
Just *wow* thank you for sharing! I will have to do this!
While I certainly appreciate the design there are two significant problems with this. As an individual who works a blacksmith forge there are some things that I see that your average layman might miss. First: Galvanized Steel gives off zinc-oxide when you heat it up, this is no bueno. Even with good ventilation I would still be very reluctant to risk any exposure. Second: Concrete is never truly dry, there is always SOME moisture inside of it. Now what do we know about moisture when it is heated up? Yes, it EXPANDS into steam which can cause the brick to literally explode, which can cause injury or death. Always use firebrick or cinderblock for fire pits.
Really good points you make. Scary to think how many people have watched this and probably used the same materials.
Hard to believe nobody else caught that.
I wonder if Tractor Supply realizes their liability? I just checked and the rings are sold for fireplace use.
@@wildtimbrown Are they galvanized steel? If they are maybe whatever regulatory agency in charge deems outside to be adequate ventilation. Maybe it is and I am just being overly cautious.
The ad said it was galvanized.
You need special alcaline resistant glass fibre as reinforcement. The "normal" glass fibre will definitely resolve in the alcaline cement i.e. concrete.
Hint : if you make one or more air intake openings under the fire, combustion will improve substantially. Your air inlets higher up indeed will help to burn off the smoke.... but the airsupply under the fire will prevent the forming smoke.
Thanks for posting this Iam gonna do this
like the humor and the many great hacks you created. Chapeau!
A North Carolina accent just makes this 100% better. Feels like home.
His accent is very pleasant to my ears. His beard and hairy arms are quite lovely.
North Carolina..?? I thought I heard some Australian in there... 👍😎 mate
I love the comedy and accents in this video. Great job!
You did a great job with this, and the humor made it even better, I’m building one soon, thought I’d see how it’s done, and you nailed it. Thanks.
Nice going. It really is amazing the number of possibilities for a smokeless fire pit.
'Engineer Carter' ( my neighbor) built one similar, but around the bottom layer, he used a broom handle (dowel) to space between the blocks for an even air inlet. He claims that this allows for a change in the wind direction at the inlet ( I think he was just worried about his dog laying down and blocking a hole if he use the absent brick method). This of course made the diameter greater, but not by much. The next two layers were set tight and he ended with a larger size brick for the top layer which gave him a lip at the top.
I really like your cast pieces for the top finish. That is a stylish design!
A few things. If you need your
Mixture more liquid consistency so it fills a mold better, don’t add more water because it gets weaker and doesn’t set properly. A cap of laundry detergent when mixing your concrete makes it act like it’s way more watery but doesn’t need to evaporate the extra water so
It has better strength. Secondly. We found instead of Pam for a release spray, crisco cooking grease mixed with a bit of olive oil or vegetable oil works best Mixes into a paste that is great for release
Year late to the party, but good points! Also, instead of tearing the fiber and adding it in the middle of the concrete, he could have added it to the mixer and had it mixed throughout the concrete for a better end strength.
Adding Perlite to the concrete mix will dramatically reduce the weight while keeping the needed strength. It is great stuff. Home Depot sells it in their garden shops. Perlite is used in gardening.
I sell Perlite on my farm. If you're in NH. Lol.
Perlite is great stuff. I've used perlite and straw in natural cobb and it's awesome.
@@DowieFarm You wrote, "I've used perlite and straw in natural cobb and it's awesome." That would be one excellent addition to cob construction. How exactly did you do this? And how much do you sell the Perlite for?
awesome. Now Im going to try to make this. Thanks.
This guy has great ideas and his videos are fun to watch. Great sense of humor…
Watched a few other vids on this DIY concept. Was skeptical on the amount of work you put in on the cap process and how it would look in the end, but that final product was top notch once placed on the pit. Nice work. Also, my first vid of yours that I've ever watched so I'll have to check out your others and Subscribe.
Thanks!
Usually just watch and don’t comment, but the dog food scoop bit at the end ... hahahaha GOLD. Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial. Love it!!
Thanks 👍
I built this and included tips from the second video. It works very well , smokeless.
Cannot wait to make us a fire pit now! Great ideas & love your humor, but also your humbleness. 🙏🏼🤗🙏🏼
Thanks so much!
About to build a firepit and glad to see there are design options to help with the smoke. Two changes I'll incorporate: 1, instead of removing alternate blocks I plan on spacing all blocks at the base about 2 inches; 2, instead of drilling all the holes along the top of my steel 4' fire ring I plan for my top cap to sit 1 1/2' above the top of the ring thereby allowing airflow to rise up and spill over the ring below the bottom surface of the overhanging top cap. Too many holes, too many years, too little patience. Thanx for a great video.
@Danger WillRobinson -Any update? I was planning to try a gap at top as well, though smaller to ensure adequate pressure.
@@myjunkmail007 any update from you as well?
I'm thinking of doing the same with the gap. How did it work?
Hey, this was a great video, much appreciated! Do you think this smokleess set up can be accomplished with a 36" square fire pit instead of round, or will the corners be too far away from the center and not burn off the smoke? I want to build a square pit for the extra space in the pit, but I don't want to negate the smokeless technology.
Thank you!
brilliant... I just need a handyman to help me out w/ this project!! and all my other project ideas!!
I really like that you made your own protractor, clever!
