Any chance you could put this firepit ring in 3D for a circle if that is possible. i know how to do bend lines but not sure on how to do a circle. Attached is firepit ring i just made up quick with holes in the top. I’ll do couple designs for fileshare once i prove out the design which is pretty simple. i did add a way to stake it to the ground which I think is cool and it will be hidden when you bolt the other side in the front. I also did a slot for bolt so there is a little bit of adjustment. I think this is good ideas instead of fixed hole but what do you think? No rush on video if you have time i can watch it and learn.
All these stoves and fire pits are looking great!! And you all look like you are having much better Spring weather than I! @DonP I’m headed to Michigan for work next week and looking at your fire pit pics has me excited to get out of the snow!! I finally got out to the shop and did some cutting this week. My friends son is studying manufacturing engineering and had a project designing a 2x72 belt sander for a project that is due next week. Finished cutting out the parts for them lastnight. Froze my but off. Still snowing here. Took this pic yesterday… woke up to more snow this morning… and snowed all day. I think @brownfox probably got more snow than we did up north… some areas around the Wasatch front got 30" of snow with resorts getting almost 6 FEET out of this storm…
We had a warm front come through a couple weeks ago and the rain melted most of the 28” of snow I had before… but now it’s back!
This is our ski patrol shack at the top of our mountain. It sits on 12’ tall stilts!! Only the second time I’ve ever seen it where you could walk right in. Last time was in 2011.
I look forward to seeing pics of your firepit. You’re going to enjoy next week in Michigan with 70’s-degree days and everything starting to turn green.
Clever, clever. I tried to do this and got the round to the flat pattern but no matter what I did, I could not get it to come out of that flat pattern with any changes due to the lack of the little trick of an minimal “fold” extrusion. Thanks @DonP for asking and Tin for answering.
I had a buddy text me about it the other day and I had no idea what it was for I thought it was some kind of ceremonial smudging with sage or something. So I looked it up and I guess it’s an old technique for keeping the frost off the fruit trees in an orchard.
I looked up on fireshare and there’s one file.
@TinWhisperer Thanks for showing us how to do the circle. I’ll have to play around with it later. I’ll fix the hole pattern for that one also. Main thing was see how to make a circle on fusion in 3D. I can really move around in 2D. I’ll try to keep patterns simple and easy for others to cut on PRO. Currently at work making money for all the metal I plan on cutting this weekend…lol. I have a couple cool new projects going.
My kids have enjoyed these as I started to make and test them in backyard. Luckily we will be able to use them in the bush before the fire ban comes on.
Maybe a little heavy for backpacking.
I’m going to do a few more iterations, post it and you’ll have the plan. Build one enjoy it in your backyard soon.
