Title: Bored at work, so I made this.
Post by: sameltoe on June 19, 2015, 03:01:53 PM

So I met a new girl and noticed she had a firepit she doesn't use, so I'm going to bust it out of her garage and build a brick ring around it and made her this while we're slow at work. Still need to weld an Axe to it, but thought it would be neat next to the pit.
I have zero artistic value, But thought it came out really cool!

If you could do the rings at the cut ends, that would set it off

That looks badass sameltoe!!!...... It's ironic you just updated this thread because 2 days ago I did a search for it to show my wife & told her I was going to use this idea to make legs for a black walnut slab I'm using to make a bench.
