Poorboy Fire Pit

Looks good to me.

This one does have an air vent of sorts -- a short section of 3" pipe slipped under the bottom rim, although I didn't capture that in any of the pictures. I don't really notice any difference though in the quality of the fire when the vent gets covered in ashes over time. I think the 4' diameter is large enough to allow enough air circulation normally. I suppose if one needed a hotter fire more air vents would help, but then wood would burn up quicker.

Ah, understand now, If it was just a fire pit the air holes would definitely make it burn the wood faster but it's a cooker too so gotta control that fire.

That looks perfect! You could probably even make s'mores on it!

McClain, looks awesome. I would also install something like fire pit's spark screen. Few months ago, I've been making a present for my uncle, and got Sunnydaze Outdoor fire pit Spark Screen for him ( found here: https://mygardenzone.com/best-fire-pit-spark-screen/ ). It works perfectly for any kind of BBQ or simple cooking.

Ha! If I keep adding accessories ($$$) it will no longer be a poorboy pit!
