Love these! I currently make fire pits, but with refactory cement, which for me can be challenging at times and more expensive. Can't wait to try this mold using cement-all. Thanks for sharing!!

Do you have an idea of how much a finished tabletop fire pit costs once you get the stainless cup and based upon the cost of the concrete? Also, I didn't see a link for extra stainless steel cups.

I actually haven’t sold any. I have been meaning to check with my insurance that I can sell something like this since it’s a much larger flame than a candle. Somehow that task fell to the bottom of my priority list 😂. I would check on Etsy. I know there are a few sellers with them listed on there. You can see what they’re charging and get an idea.

Cracked! Just used this mold and cement all last night. Looks GREAT! I let it cure overnight and it cured for about 12 hours. I used it for picture purposes and it was burning for about 15 minutes and then I noticed a crack almost perfectly vertical. Also noticed the cement all warmed upon from the flame (yes I used the stainless steel cup). How long did you let it cure before using it?
@calafiacandleco
@calafiacandleco Жыл бұрын
You definitely need to let it cure more before lighting. I would recommend at least 3 days. It's a lot of concrete and needs time to cure and build its strength before being exposed to heat.

Do you add anything to cement all or concrete to keep the pit from cracking from the fire? Or is the cup sufficient enough? I added the alcohol in the pit hole with no cup and it cracked when lit.
