outdoor fire pit help?

Sunday, 28. February 2010

I want an outdoor fire pit. I won’t use it to cook, it’s just for the ambience. I live it Illinois. It would sit on patio pavers. What should I look for? Should I buy one with a cover that will suffocate the fire to help put it out quickly?

Just keep a bucket of sand near by to put one out quickly.As for the pit.I have a large circular one made of copper and a dome shaped "screen" cover.You still see and feel the fire,wont keep it from burning,and its safe.It helps keep embers from flying thru the air and causing an unintentional fire.
