Reinforced fire pit cover for a 69 inch round granite table top. Ohio client is using a 48 inch fire pit for a coffee table support in his living room. Bottom of reinforced table top. Tiny welds to avoid heat warpage.   |

Just thought I'd offer to help pull the board from under and let em roll . I like what you're doing there , taking an idea and improving it tenfold . I always like fabbing things . If I need or want something I start researching so I can build it better .

If I need or want something I start researching so I can build it better . Got the cookie cutter designs rolling. Hope they will lead to some new prototypes. Lots of possibilities when burning wood. |

I'll try to get a pic of a firepit I put together a few years ago , may be something you would like to consider putting together . Or at least improve upon . |

Building inventory for spring sales. Hopefully anyway. Funny, this greenhouse held about the same amount of money in plants as it does in fire pits. More in fire pits if the sunken areas were filled with pits.   |

How's the Cold Fusion testing going? and you may already have come up with the perpetual motion machine, just look in the mirror.

Rock Tumbling is definitely a lot more complicated now that I have been reading this Forum. let's see; Rock fill level, water fill level, mixture of rocks, Size of Rocks, Slurry, Speed of Barrel, Recharging, Coarser Grit, AO, Ceramics, Plastic Pellets, pre-grinding, diamond grinding, and probably more that I missed. If Barometric Pressure, Humidity and Phase of the Moon ever become important I may have to find a new hobby!!
Just kidding, keep up the good work!!

H Recipe involving proper mix and timing of SiC 30, AO 80, clay, water, rocks, barrel, rotation. Pre-grinding as needed. To get to that point took a do do load of trials. the cold fusion not so simple.... |

Ohio client contrives interesting coffee table out of 48" fire pit. He had me weld tabs to center this 60" roll top cover to center it to support a 67" Lapland Green marble top:  Completed piece:   Italian Lapland Green marble  |

Is that base sealed (spray coated) with something? Wondering if it is going to leave a rust ring on their carpet.
Does make a darn good lookin' table.
