HotSpot Wood-Burning Firepits
With 25 years experience in metal working, Tim Odell of Twisp, Washington uses his skills to make solid fire pits. When he saw the stamped metal fire pits made in China and sold in big box stores, he realized he could do much better.
Shown above is the 30" Hot Spot "Companero" fire pit. Each HotSpot fire pit is hand crafted from 3/16" thick or thicker carbon steel and built to last a lifetime. Tim also makes versions that are 24", 36 " 42" and 48" in diameter. All sizes feature a steel ring around and outside the perimeter. It is something you can rest your feet on during cold weather.
The largest size has a fire bowl that is 47-1/2" in diameter with an outer 55" ring. It weighs 250 lbs.
You can get a robust fire going in a 30" fire bowl. A 48" fire bowl is huge. Shown here is a man with a 48" ruler to give you an idea. Imagine how many good-sized logs you can fit in that size.
Each HotSpot fire pit can be fitted with and accessory grill.
Cooking over a wood fire offers a very special experience, and it is hard to beat the flavor.
