    This is really impressive. I like that it looks like a woven basket. Years ago, I learned how to make pine needle baskets; but, for me, it was more like sewing than weaving. I've been wanting to learn basket weaving for a long time. Thanks for sharing this video.

    What a great idea. I think you are the first person to find a practical use for used steel strapping. Another terrific idea come to fruition. Wishing you and your family a blessed new year, gentle weather, safe work habits and restful evenings around your eclectic fire pit. Peace brother

      Thank you, JW. I’ve been mystified by the ways to reuse the steel strap. Was so pleased this looked as cool as it did. Thank you for watching and for your continued support. I’m sure you noted my safe toes and my use of the respirator. :-) I appreciate you, brother.

    That's a good idea on how to re-purpose materials, think i'll give it a try since I have some steelies taking up space. Thanks for a great video.

    Very nice, I love the idea of one material emulating another and this really does look like a basket. I'll admit I don't watch every video you put up (life gets in the way), but I love to come back for the "train's here" and the cool projects. Keep up the great work.

    Great job! Love the look! I can relate to the 6 years of saving stuff for a project. Also I couldn’t help but think that you were channeling your inner Mimi as you basket wove the strapping. Thanks for sharing your creative vision.

    Nice, result my dude, this is one of your best creations to date. Your secondary burn probably just isn't letting enough air through. Pop a few more holes in there and I'll bet it gets even better.

    Metal supermarket?? Im guessing thats some kind of metal shop or even a recycling center, but not entirely certain Im right about that. What’s another name by which a the kind of place you mention might be known? What would I search for in the phonebook or via Google? This is such a fun project . Smokeless or not, I think this would be great on fire bricks on my patio?

    • @GreenShortzDIY
      @GreenShortzDIY  Год назад +1

      There is actually a store called “The Metal supermarket.” :-) They have lots of locations. If you have one near you, ask to see the “drop room.” They charge by the pound. There is also a supplier called Online Metals. The home improvement stores also have metal like the bar and round stock I used. The rest of the metal was scavenged. Thank you for watching.

    If it still smokes cut a few groups on the side of your pipe flat just stick your soft flatty at your grander flat in there and then you shouldn't have any smoke because you're not getting the air flow where the fire is you're getting to come up the pipe and out the top of it because it hair air will be heated from the fire and shoot straight up that pipe and won't go into the fire

    Another question: welders wear a protective welding mask to protect face and, more importantly, eyes. Those welds are SUPER bright even in video, so since Im a bit naive re: welding … might watching the welds pose risk to my eyes/vision?

    • @GreenShortzDIY
      @GreenShortzDIY  Год назад +1

      The camera is a good enough filter to protect your eyes. The welder is definitely maxing out the white point of the camera’s luminance, but it can’t go beyond “100% white” into the intensity of light that harms human eyes. So, your eyes are safe. Thank you for watching.
