lets see your fitpits

Here are 2 that I have at different places on the farm.

I'm putting one in the backyard this year - I'll post pics when it's done.
 
BF - I like that idea A LOT. I've been thinking of the right dimensions and design for mine and think that will work.
 
Here's mine that takes a little hiking to get to. Built into a natural berm along a ship canal.
 
Cool looking spot hassivlov. Keep it a secret.

Oh yeah.

However, my pit would be better if it was just 3-sided. Throws out more heat that way and I can get a reflector oven in close. But I was worried about the grass and moss so I made a circle. I think I might rearrange it this year.
 
Awesome pics. Giving me ideas for the one I wanna build in my backyard.:thumbup:

When I read the title, I was like... Man, I am pretty well versed in anatomy, but I dont know what a fitpit is, and im not so sure I wanna see one, or show mine off!!:eek:
 
I need to take a better picture from another angle... there is now a swing right by this, and it will hopefully soon have a roof over it (the swing that is).

Yeah, that's funny how close she gets to fire. Most dogs I've had get very alarmed at fire. One dog I had never had a problem singing whiskers sticking her head into things.

But your beagle--that's one brave/beautiful girl!
 
It's hard to tell in that photo, but she is about eye level with the lip of the pit, so I assume most of the heat is going over her, but then again she is a nose and stomach with 4 legs, so I'm sure the smell was more than enough to overcome her fears :D . But yeah, I sometimes wonder about the brains on that dog. We were standing on a cliff (about 120 feet up) and I looked down to see her with her butt up in the air and her front legs and head over the edge sniffing away! I would have taken a picture if we weren't tethered together by the leash! Other times she is so crafty and cunning (usually trying to sneak food or a treat) that I wonder who's really in charge. Thanks for the compliments though!

This was the object of her affections that day :D
