CONFESSION – sometimes (most of the time) I take shortcuts cuz I consider myself the laziest DIY-er on the planet. I added 2 more smaller brackets on the ends and it’s back to good as new.ĭO seal the top and the bottom. You’ll see on the original post that I put about 6 brackets across the back and as the summer went on, the combo of heat and rain along with the fact that I used regular old wood boards and not treated caused them to warp a bit. This completes “the Smokey the Bear only you can prevent forest fires” warning…ĭO put a few more screws/brackets on than I did. and I always pour water over our fire when we are done and then leave the cover off til the next morning when the fire pit is 100% completely cool.

2 coats of outdoor polyurethane later and it looks good as new!!Īnother possible DO, you could totally use some sort of pressure treated wood or decking material to make this and eliminate any worry of moisture issues!ĭON’T ever put this on your fire pit when it’s still remotely hot, I had several emails from worried readers that putting a wooden cover over a fire pit isn’t a good idea. NO worries though, I sanded it down (or enlisted my favorite little chick who has suddenly taken an interest in power tools, clearly I’m doing something right in the parenting department!) Not to mention a fantastic ottoman when I want to kick my feet up at the end of a long day.ĭON’T leave it outside all winter long, ahem…I had really good intentions of storing this thing in the garage for the winter, but I lost all motivation when we got like a foot of snow before Thanksgiving and I never really thought about it again til April.
