If you go for a metal bowl you need to consider that the bowl will get hot from the fire and if you are thinking about adding safer material then a layer of fire bricks would do the job, just be mindful not to use sedimentary rocks as they could explode due to the air bubbles they contain. Try to gather more information on the best rocks to use for this type of work.\n\nWHAT FUEL SOURCE AM I GOING TO USE?\n\nIt is vital that you make sure you know what type of fuel you are going to use for your pit. If you are considering to burn natural gas then you should install your pit where a gas line can be installed and if you are considering a wood-burning pit then you should make sure to put a screen over it to prevent sparks coming out and causing fire and burns and make sure that is not situated under a flammable area.\n\nDECIDE WHETHER PERMANENT OR PORTABLE.\n\nIf you’re contemplating on a portable custom outdoor fire pit or BBQ pit then it is important for you to buy a stand for the fire pit bowl. If you’re considering a permanent installation then a wood-burning or natural gas type of fuel pit would be the best fit for the job. As mentioned above you need to use heat-resistant materials to construct the fire pit’s external structure to prevent cracking and crumble that would lead to expensive repairs.\n\nMAKE SURE IF A PERMIT IS NECESSARY OR NOT.\n\nA building permit is needed for any renovation projects but this depends on which residential area you live in. the best thing to do is try to contact the necessary departments to make sure we are not breaking any laws.\n\nINSPECT THE AREA WHERE YOU ARE GOING TO PLACE YOUR PIT.\n\nIt is the most important thing to make sure before doing anything.
