July 25, 20187 yr There was a guy at the old place who had a laser cutter that did some custom fire pits and other things. Anyone know if he is still around? He was in Houston, but I think he moved. I know a few of you guys bought from him, and I am in the market for a new pit. Anyone else you know of in the Austin area that can do this at a reasonable price?
July 25, 20187 yr I bought one. Here is who you are looking for. Kevin Libhart President Texas Tig Shop 10825 Barely Lane Suite L Houston, TX 77070 (832) 421-3689 kevinl@texastigshop.com
July 25, 20187 yr That guy is a true artist. For those of you who didn't come across him on TOS, here is some of his work (spoilered for large pics): Edited July 25, 20187 yr by solamente73 spacing
July 25, 20187 yr That’s the guy, but he doesn’t live in a Texas anymore. He moved to Colorado and I haven’t heard from him since. That was a couple of years ago now.
July 26, 20187 yr I bought one from him also. He was a great guy to work with. You might check with local high schools and their 4H/shop departments. They are always looking for projects, especially one that will get them some money. I know the local high school has the equipment to custom cut the designs for the sides.
July 26, 20187 yr Author Sucks to hear he has moved as I really liked his work. Catp, which local high school are you referring to?
July 27, 20187 yr Author Hmmm, that happens to be my local high school too. I''ll ask around, thanks.
November 1, 20205 yr Not a custom fire pit, but I’d say a Breeo is worth it if... you can catch it on sale. I’d check your local grill shops. I bought a Breeo 24 Ablaze from Texas Grill Shop in Houston. $500 with a lid. $120 discount with a complimentary lid. If you buy directly from the manufacturer, $600 for a 24 and another $100 for a lid. And oh yeah, 21 days for shipping. It’s not entirely smokeless, but much less smoke than a typical fire pit. When the fire is humming it is pretty smokeless, but when the fire dies down there is some smoke.
November 2, 20205 yr I looked forever.Just picked 1 up from bucees in temple friday. Boot rail, shelf and grill top.36 inch pit. 48 inch from edge to edge of shelfIts aite
November 2, 20205 yr Another mention for Hendrickson High School shop class. My nephew learned to weld there a few years ago and they sold these in various sizes for a fundraiser. Mine is 3’ x 3 which is a lot bigger than it sounds. Pretty basic but I love it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

A lot of those schools build their own pits as part of the experience.These folks can probably put you in touch with a school that competes in your area: https://texashsbbq.org/
November 7, 20205 yr These are your friend: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Diamond-Strike-A-Fire-Fire-Starters-Strikes-Like-a-Match-for-Lighting-Grills-Fireplaces-and-Firepits-48-Pack-534-376-872/207113544 My fire almost went out tonight and then I dropped about 6 in there and it worked out.
February 18, 20232 yr if anyone wants cedar logs, 4' long, 6-8" diameter, to burn in an outdoor fireplace, i know where 30 of them are stacked in a pile at the curb in a street off 360 NEVER BURN CEDAR INDOORS it is high heat because of the oil in the wood NEVER USE CEDAR TO COOK OR BBQ EVEN OFFSET it's not worth the cleanup for the taste - tremendous amounts of ash and only marginal flavor this is for someone with an OUTDOOR firepit WELL AWAY from anything else that can burn i will want to see a pic of your firepit setup before i will share the location the city could show up at any time and haul them away as part of the cleanup all that said, i've seen 5 of these stacked like a teepee and wired together and the "campfire" effect is amazing OUTSIDE and WELL AWAY from anything else that will burn
