what's the dimensions? Does it double up as a BBQ.

Was talking about Gunslinger's firepit yesterday and wishing I had one but A) too expensive and B) too big to get it in my van plus the kids!!!

It is a fire pit ,but i supose you could use it as a BBQ,you could put a few tatties in there ,or a bit of Fish, :ok
Kev .i dont know what the guaze is for ,more for decorative purposes i suspect.
i am sure i could manage to get hold of a flat guaze to put some burgers ,sausages,toast etc on.

The dimensions are 56cm x 38cm and it has a stainless steel base ,with folding legs ,so ideal for storing in small spaces.

I really bought it so i could have a bit of a camp fire of a late evening.,after i have done the BBQ ing :wink: some campsites are a bit funny about that sort of thing .

Probably stops lumps falling out.

It looks too low to be put straight on grass without scorching it. Needs to be a couple of foot off at least.

Depends really on how much you are putting in it I would have thought. It doesn't look that big to me so you would be limited to a couple of logs etc.
