I used this ring to construct my own firepit in the back yard. Using internet tutorials and this solid ring made construction of a good looking permanent firepit possible. The ring arrived very quickly and after bolting it together and painting the bolts with stove paint it was ready to serve as the main component of the pit. The price was the best I found and enabled me to save over a hundred dollars compared to the kits they sell at the big box stores. I highly recommend this product.
