    OH, before I forget.......

    MY dad gutted a washing machine and used the tub to make a 'fire pit".

    He bolted on feet to hold it off the floor and they have since rusted away....

    I looked up washing machine fire pits and came up with that.


    If you do have a chance to get a tub, and have a space for it? You can prop it on brick and it works just as well.

    check it out!

    Washing machine tubs make the best fire pits!!! They have all the holes for great oxygen to get tothe fire, and a top a Weber grill fits perfect. It can quickly become a "cooking" fire should the local FD stop by. WE have one Ralph got when he was consulting for Whirlpool, and it works great!

    IF we are talking about old applicances...our stove came with the house. It is so old, it is made by Frigidaire when they were owned by GM. How many people have stoves made by General Motors?

    I tried to bring a GM cooktop from NC back home to AK alot of years ago. I still have the plate somewhere. I also have a fuse box cover from Colt Firearms around here somewhere.
