I had a very poor day and to come home to find a Mitre 10 video made the day about a thousand times better than it was.
I'm here in Australia and discovered the NZ mitre 10 vids! excellent. way better than our bunnings vids made with store staff that have no idea
Bring back the Easy As series!!
To help some others decide on this project, I priced it all up, using Mitre 10 NZ. The total was $541 and that does not include all the basic tools he used. If you owned nothing that was used or required in this video, then you would easily be up for $700.
Thanks. That is ludicrous.
@@mrdobalina3451 while yes that price may seem ludicrous it should also add property value down the line
I made a basic firepit a while back (not as good looking as this one though) and the property owner paid me $2000 Aud to keep it in as it increased his property value by about 3-4000
@@leighamharford5856 it wouldn't add what you would pay for the pit.
We just built this today! Great video, made it so easy. Mitre 10 has been sold out of the Firth Ezi Blocks it seems at most locations but we were able to pick them up at Bunnings. One improvement over the design in the video I would recommend is leaving one or two bricks out at ground level to create some air flow, for a hotter fire and less smoke.
edit: The price about a year about when I made this was closer to $800-$1000 NZD
Thanks so much for the support!, stoked you created it too! ^Cam
interesting, and do you just clean it out when it gets full with a shovel? In between fires do you have a roof for when it rains or it doesnt matter
@@23wiski We've only really had to remove some of the ashes once with a shovel. It takes a long time to fill up. Rain isn't a problem as long as we use dry wood to start it.
This guy is fantastic.
Great ideas!
wow im impressed / inspired !!!
Great video, bro! 👌🏼
Well done 🇺🇸
Thank you for the video cutie!!! 😉😉😉🤗🤗🤗
Get em ow
Here I was thinking I just needed 12 rocks and 2 wood.
😂😂me too. Got damn he just fucked up my summer. I need something extremely simple.
What is the base
Ayy don't forget 5 gold for the science + alchemy machine
Dont take my word for it and look for ypurself but, You are allowed fires in Auckland on private land for cooking such as Hungi umu or lovo it needs to be less than 2 meters squared. You must have water and 4 meter clear area around it. Search open fire laws Auckland NZ easy as.
perfect for bbq
The way I whipper-snip my edges, those pebbles would be scattered all over my yard. My mower would find them though. 😂
You da man
Mmmm, - are "Firth Easy Wall" retaining wall blocks - manufactured to construct low level retaining walls - fire proof or will they be safe at, possibly, high heat levels & not explode????
+ in Auckland this would probably be deemed an incinerator & illegal???
Hi Mate,
Good question!
Firth Ezi Wall blocks are made with tiny air pockets throughout the blocks which allows moisture to escape (moisture is what causes explosions when it gets trapped and builds up pressure) so due to the porosity of the blocks there is no explosion hazard.
You must check with your local council on the regulations for firepits in your local area to make sure that you comply which is highlighted in the video. For Auckland, a great starting place is here: www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/licences-regulations/outdoor-fires/Pages/default.aspx
The Mitre10 in Melbourne don’t have these rocks 😢 would be so much easier if they did. And no Bunnings do not have them either. Miss Mitre10 in NZ
haha is that because of a certain 🌞 + 🌲combustibles =🔥⛑🚛🚁..... Don't want to be that guy
@@fras444 Nah. Fire pits are legal in Aus with certain restrictions by council and by fire risk status. Check your local council.
does Mitre 10 sell these bricks? what keyword should I use to search for them 🤔？
they are retaining blocks and you will find them in the Trade Centre
Before you say this illegal (like many people are commenting) watch the video first, specifically 2:11
We’re not allowed open fires on this side of New Zealand. Southside Mangere

Hope that helps.
hard, thats wot i fawt
Hi are these designed for a firepit? can they absorb the heat that the fire would put out?
Cheers great helpful videos
Kevin , these are fire bricks .
Made with similar material sand as pizza oven bricks. .
Cannot use garden edge brinks .
Bricks not too loose ?
By using Firth Ezi Wall blocks, these click into place perfectly 🙌
i thought it was illegal to have an open fire in your back yard.. onehunga
Always check before sparking up your Fire Pit. For Onehunga check out both www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/licences-regulations/outdoor-fires/Pages/default.aspx? & www.checkitsalright.nz/ . You'll find guidance there for open fires too.
@@mitre10nz Great site for giving info, and I can have one of these. How much does it cost though?
Why do you need 5min advert in the middle of my playlist... -_- I can mute the ad, but I am in the middle of my own DIY job and having to go to the trouble of getting out of my gear to skip it makes me very annoyed.
@Mitre, thank you for making this excellent video, and for providing easy instructions.
.
That being said, I only have one complaint. You employed the communist measuring system, ooops, I mean the metric system. As such, I must convert everything to inches and to feet. Sheesh!
dickhead
@@22pilgrim, you said; "dickhead"
With whom are you communicating?
.
Also, what is the meaning of your ambiguous, vacuous communication?
.
Perhaps you are attempting to form an ad hominem attack. Perhaps you are unaware that ALL ad hominem attacks are illogical, unethical, unreasonable, and unwise. Such strongly implies and strongly infers that you have nothing intelligent to offer.
.
Please clarify. Thank you.
Communist measuring system 😂😂😂 good on ya mate!
@@NgatiDreadz, initially the British gave us (i.e., the American Colony) the British Imperial Measuring System - feet and inches, cups and ounces, etc. Then, when the Metric system was invented, they ran away from said imperial System.
Imagine that!
