@Fixthisbuildthat DIY Smokeless Fire Pit Video: • Stop the Smoke, Do THI...
In this episode of the Camphouse Shed Saga I decide to knock out the fire pit, TV, and porch soffit since the weather has been keeping me off the roof. These details are some of my favorites of this project and it's really cool seeing it all come together.
I'm currently powering the shed with this: s.zbanx.com/r/9vEnu3AXyZWx

Coming from a landscaping background I'd suggest laying out a couple trails of gravel or pavers to get from the shed to the fire pit and then mulching everything else. That way you can plant in the mulched area later if you want
This… pavers will be more kind to lawn chairs and kids and less mud in the shop…
I agree with you, but rather than using real wood chip mulch, I would probably go with the rubber variety. It's made from recycled tires, which keeps them out of landfills, and it holds it's color a lot longer than tree mulch. The rubber mulch is also friendlier to the skin when your kids are running around acting like, well, kids, and they fall, no splinters.
@PaganWizard I disagree with that for 2 reasons, first it takes away from the nature look and second recycled tires still give off a petroleum smell which I think would be very unpleasant to sit around. Have you ever been on one of those recycled rubber playgrounds for kids? Stinks horrible and I am sure the chemical isn't very good for our systems.
@@myronperish7551 Yeah, I have to agree with you. Plus the natural mulch will feed your soil microbes over time and since the plan is to have a desirable space for your kids and family stay away from petroleum whenever possible.
I 100% agree. clear pathways of permeable materials is always the way to go. And feeding your soil with mulch can only be beneficial in the long run.
This shed is going to be the neighborhood hang out for your son and his friends. The best part of that is. You can keep an eye on them while they think their foot loose and free. Job Well Done Travis.
Smokey would be proud! Good tip on centering on branches.
“Construction mediocrity”
😂😂😂
Looks good! Only thing I'm wondering is if the fire is not getting enough air. I think you need to remove a couple blocks at the bottom. Which might be hard at this point with them being glued together. Good luck, again looks great.
Breeo says as long as you have it resting on the insert ring, there are four holes located North, East, South, and West on it that allow air to travel down to the bottom of the pit. No need to make extra ventilation at the bottom unless you really want to.
to little air for sure
cold air is not going those little holes, you need to make holes in the bottom
@@walteramado5505 I agree! This needs to have air intake holes at the bottom.
57 stone around the entire building and firepit is the way to go. Cheap and effective to keeping things dry. That's how we did it around here in central NC.
Flag Stone around the fire pit with a walk to the cabin would be both visually appealing and functional
Landscaper here, we use the black rubber mallets to level any stone or paver, way softer and lighter then the dead blow. Even though they are called concrete pavers, they are mostly sand and not much for aggregate to make them smooth. A possible cheaper option, we use sand on top of road mix, sand is great for compaction and leveling. As for what you should do around it, break it down into uses. You have a a fire pit, in that zone I would put road fabric down, trail fines, sand, or small gravel for the seating area, maybe put some decorative boulders, and some plant pockets, sod the rest of the area. Think pulling mowers, snowblowers out, can be done with gravel, but easier with sod.
Good to know! Thanks
Found your site a few weeks back and have been following this project since the beginning. I too am an engineer (ME) and have been doing woodworking as a hobby since I was young since my dad's hobby was wood working. I turned my hobby into my fulltime job (leaving the business world) until my primary contractor filed bankruptcy on me and I had to go back into the regular work force to support my family. Several years ago I bought a small hobby farm, and my son and I have built several complete buildings (animal shelter, storage barn, workshop, wood barn, etc), and I am thoroughly enjoying watching your thinking processes as you are going through exactly what I went through several years ago. Thank you for this great series, and I am now subscribed and will be following all your projects.
Crushed granite is amazing stuff all on its own, but if you want to be super "boujie" you can set flagstone in a layer of it in an ever-widening ring around your fire pit, leaving space between the flagstone so the crushed granite becomes your "grout". I'm having fun watching this build!
For the ground cover, contact a local lawn & plant shop and look for a local/native low-maintenance cover. Usually there is some variety of clover that you can plant or have laid down that does not require mowing since it never grows more than a couple inches tall but the roots will hold the dirt in place, prevent a mud pit, and only requires the occasional watering (if that).
I LOVE my Breeo Double Flame (don’t think they make that model anymore). Works amazingly and hope to do an insert like this in the future!
Holy high end fire pits Batman - those things are a fortune.
Dude you are great. Love the content and watching this tiny house (aka shed) build, I think I have seen all the parts now! Seriously, well done, thank you!
I also think you need to vent the TV box, also any sun that hits that black paint or TV early in the day will heat it up when the TV is not even on. A bonus is you can also unlock it the box and swing it inside to watch TV while in the shop in hot or cold weather, or just whenever. As to the ground, I would sod it, but then you have to cut the grass also.
For the area around the fire pit, I say go with gravel with a curbing of some sort to keep it out of the grass. Kids and mud mix very well, you just need to have a place to hose them off before going into the house.
Hey!! Little kids and mud mix perfectly well, thank you very much. It's muddy kids indoors and parents that don't mix very well.
Needed a few gaps between the blocks at the bottom to allow air to get in and increase the burn off of the smoke.
Nope, that is what is cool about this Breeo, the holes are already incorporated on top
@@ShopNation sorry, but the holes at the top do very little unless you have holes at the bottom of the bricks to allow free circulation of the air. An updraft like in a chimney.
Pavers are always a good option around a fire pit but you should also check out decomposed granite. Compacted gravel base for drainage an then add a compacted layer of decomposed granite on top - should be able to find multiple colors to choose from. You’ll also need edging of some kind (pavers or just landscape edging) to keep it all nice and tidy.
Pavers around the firepit!
Great video. I am really enjoying the series. My vote for ground cover is pavers around the fire pit for chairs and wood chips everywhere else
That’s crazy having a tv outside….but I love it! Well done…
one of the best parts about a campfire is your clothes smelling like it the next day. One of my favorite smells in all the world
I agree! I always think, man this is how people used to smell all the time! ha
Pretty cool oven you built and put a TV in it.
Nice! I can’t wait for custom build furniture, shed organization, etc.
Great job! This shed is coming along nicely.
Gravel around the fire pit would be a very easy option, but if you ever want to walk barefoot or with thin sole shoes, it will hurt a bit.
One option I would suggest is large flat stones you can also use which some people use for paving. It looks a bit better than pavers (more natural) and it doesn't hurt your feet when you walk on it.
Glad you sealed your cedar, the nails would have eventually caused staining staining on the cedar.
Stainless is the way to go for any exterior exposed cedar unless you don't mind staining.
Love my Breeo X24, be prepared to have a lot of firewood on hand for the x30, love this series on the build!
Loving the progress and your “can do” attitude.
Experts do it right the first time
Professionals know how to hide their mistakes
Nice job!
Thanks for the great vid! I'm confused as to why you dug out the pond underneath, but like the metal components and everything else
Project is looking good! That was a good first game to watch on that TV! GO VOLS!!
Love watching you create this shed project come to life. Can’t wait to see it done. What I would do is mount small outdoors speakers underneath your roof for your tv via Bluetooth when your watching the games outdoors.
Nice. Just add some vents (bottom & top) to the TV frame. Even a LCD TV produces heat, plus you basically enclosed and sealed it into a small scale greenhouse
That grill over the firepit screams great place to cook a pizza while watching the game.
Also the gravel under the firepit would have been helped by possibly some drainage filter fabric under the gravel. Any rain that runs towards the firepit is going to pic up dirt and bring it in between all the rocks and essentially glog up the spaces in between. Essentially the same kind of cloth over drainage tile(big O).
Always love your videos. Admittedly I came for the smokeless fire pit however the TV box was the star of the show. Very clever idea. Pure genius!!!!
Get in touch with a local tree service company and have them dump you off a few loads of mulch. They are always looking for a place to dump their wood chips and will still give it an outdoor look. A good thick layer should last a long time.
Really cool fire pit
Put a few feet of gravel around the outside. About 2 inches deep. It acts as a warning track. It works surprisingly well.
Love the project! I would put some pavers and gravel around the fire pit (18" or so) just in case of some hot embers getting out of the pit, and then mulch or similar material everywhere else.
outdoor speakers are a must
I would use an astro turf type playing surface for the ground cover.
One thing that came to mind is venting for the tv.. I imagine the heat from the tv being on in an enclosed box might damage it. Maybe it needs a couple of vents or holes at the top just to allow for air to circulate.
Yeah I'm going to keep an eye on it during the warmer months to see how warm that box gets, won't be a big deal to add some vents to the top/back
Playpark bark is good for a muddy garden. Still feels like you're out in the woods as well
More expensive and time consuming, but pavers, with a solid base so they don’t sink or go anywhere over time, I think are a great option. We built a backyard fire pit last year and also built a paver circle about 5’ in each direction of the pit as a seating area. Really happy with it and don’t regret the extra work vs gravel
Most excellent, my dude.
I would like to see just leaves and small sticks around the whole area so it looks like you're out in the woods. It won't be muddy once it dries out and the sticks and leaves get down in there and you add a few more big bags of leaves to the area. One thought though, you may want to have some sort of water source out there, like a garden hose, to put out and fires that may happen because of the fire ring/pit. You also don't want to burn down your brand new shed....Greetings from Texas...John B.
The shed is really coming along. Great job! I would put som bark or wood shavings on the ground 😃👍🏻
I think a nice wood deck all the way around would be nice. Elevates you a bit as well so you can see into the fire pit a bit.
Love the backyard concept. Don't over do it on the landscaping. Flagstone would look nice around the pit and I guess would be easier with chairs. Then just get some natural playground mulch for the rest. Keep it looking like a forest floor and not some hardscaped patio.
I would say for ground cover a thick layer of the large mulch might work. Sorta the wood mulch they use at playgrounds.
Funny. The first thing I noticed was the mud. I thought perhaps pine chips/mulch
The project is looking great. I would chip a load of wood and put wood/bark chippings all in front of the camp house. As pavers will become real slimy under all the falling leaves. Or gravel as that will lead you down to the camp house nicely.
Another great video. Project is really coming along and looking good.
This is great. I have really enjoyed all your content. Love the TV. I made one in my shop that is flush to the rafters and drops down when I want to watch. Advantage of having an unfinished ceiling.
I think my choice for the ground around the fire pit would be a thin layer of gravel. I feel like pavers would just give too many hard lines to look at. Gravel would also probably be a lot easier to lay down
Grass, always grass. Easy and looks great
Awesome job!
This is an absolutely awesome project. Nice job!
You're going to like that swing away grill. I have something similar and I love it. Just like with a meat smoker, but not as intense, you can get different flavors out of your meats with different species of firewood.
Hoping to get sone nice construction pine burgers going soon 😂
I used rubber mulch and it works great and lasts a long time.
💯
I like this idea
Man..I was planning to build a very tiny house , more like cabin before I founded your channel. and now you're my inspiration to make it really happen
Ps english not my first language
Looking good! Think about installing some speakers in the soffit so you can hear the games instead of mounting them on the wall - seems a cleaner install.
I like it.
Nice!
Pavers for around the fireplace with a small half moon retaining wall to keep paver base level and shield from the high ground on the back (front?) side!
It looks really nice !
Mulch. Easy. And over time will make the entire area less prone to holding water. You could till lightly and put down a shade fescue mix, but that takes time and warmth. I’d mulch for now and in a year or two as weeds/grass take in, till and seed it.
Wow way to go!👍
Looking AWESOME!!! Yeah maybe a couple rows of pavers around the fire pit, a level space for chairs. Then surrounding area wood chips are great to keep mud down, and kids clean ;)
"Construction mediocracy" 😂 made me lol
The cedar on the porch is a nice touch, but the galvanized nails may react to the oils in the cedar and make black dots where you nailed. It's all looking good, though.
Interesting, thanks for the info!
I would think about doing 3/8" or smaller gravel around the firepit and up to the shed, it'll be a lot less work to do than pavers, and provide a level of drainage / erosion control.
Pavers would look really nice. It's hard to tell how much of a slope you have from the videos. Depending on how bad it is, it may require a lot of digging on one side and building up / retaining on the other to get and keep the area level, and problems that do arise may take a few years to show up.
Looks amazing,
We had pavers done.!
Being honest I would love a shop greatness blanket to cover up in while sitting outside at camp watching the games. So don’t say no one would want one. Keep the videos coming
Looks great. Love the cedar.
Since it's your money I'm spending...flagstone around the firepit and then add a flagstone pathway. Bonus: flagstone veneer at the bottom of the porch posts :)
Plant clover for ground cover. Nice and green and you don't have to cut it every week.
I've always thought pavers look really nice. Maybe an area around the fire pit and then pavers leading to the door of the totally awesome shed and another paver path heading off towards the house? Whatever you end up doing, I'm looking forward to watching 🙂
Love your TV invention.
I really like creative people.
So glad that I found your channel. I’m now subscribed.
Blessings, Carlos ✝️🙏❤️😊❗️
Roll Tide! Love the channel and your current build.
That is great progress on your project and fun and educational video as always - thanks! I would go with gravel or pavers next to the fire pit and mulch further away. For gravel you want to have a good base with heavy duty landscape fabric and hexagon mesh to keep it from being washed/kicked away. For mulch put heavy duty landscape fabric first so it won't sink into the much. Notice the pattern of doing good base so things don't sink into the mud - don't ask how I would know 🙂.
I like the suggestions for a couple gravel paths and some pavers, but I wouldn't do traditional mulch. Look at the rubber mulch. It costs a little more, but you don't have to replace it like traditional mulch/bark. It's heavier so it doesn't blow around as much and it's made for playground areas so your kids can enjoy it if you decide to put some stuff around there for them to play on as well. And - it comes in multiple colors, red, blue, green, black, brown - probably more. Brown would blend in quite nicely there around your shed.
Gravel layer with volcano red or black rock scattered on top.
Gotta do a putting green around the fire pit!!
Now we're talking...
Love your videos and GO VOLS!!!
actually kids and mud mix perfectly 🤣
"Go Vols"...lol. I was at that game.
Little kids love mud! I would say pavers or just decomposed granite with a paver edge. I would look at both and compare the cost. Go with what is cheaper.
nice video. now i know where i got my idea for my wall with wall design, or maybe my wife wanted it when she saw me once watching one of your videos months past. so i complied. anyways, as for the mud and flooring, how about a larger perimeter of rocks, you can purchase or sift from your property, which ever yields better. then around the rock diameter, you can wood chip it up. it should be far enough from the firepit. just a thought, something I would do. i wlll need to show this video to my wife so i can buy one of those breeo pits. this way i don't have to spend time making holes and sanding metal for smooth safe finish. thanks for the video bro.
I really want one of those fire pits but I don't think there is an HOA in California that would ever allow anything but a gas burning firepit. I guess I'm gonna have to move....some day!
Have you thought about putting a rv power hookup on your shed? Go Blue!
Plant grass.
Make sure over head trees are thinned so sunlight comes through.
Also make sure the area drains well.
Nice project. What’s the diameter of the fire pit that breeo sent you?
I personally hate rounded rocks that go everywhere especially with little kids. Go with crushed blue stone that you see in paths at nature centers or go with local mulch. Mulch is great in the woods.
i would use a mulch of some kind there. Pine bark might work best, but definitely not pine straw. It is possible that it can catch fire if any sparks fly out of the pit. Extend out the the rock around the pit by another 6-12 inches and then mulch in the seating area around it. Then try and sow some grass around the rest of the area to cut down on the muddy small kids.
Best part of the video was seeing what games you had on the TV, gotta love seeing Bama lose. GO VOLS
Hopefully the weather clears soon....I've really enjoyed this series....did you watch that entire game? It was a great one
They do make stainless steel finish nails for nail guns. Galvanized nails always discolor and stain the wood over time.
Flagstone baby, all the way!
Just make sure to make airflow holes on the bottom and that the top is sealed to prevent any pressure leak, once this airflow problem is solved you will have far less smoke and the secondary fire working. Without it its just not worth using a breeo for the inside, works like any stainless steel bracer/fire pit would.
Breeo already has incorporated vent holes in the top, no need for additional ventilation
