Yes I mentioned the solo stove because it is portable. The 2ft away is because this concrete tile/block space is only about 15ft x 15ft with the fence on the east side, grass on the south side, house on the west side, and a plastic deck on the north side. So the more I move it away from the fence the closer I’d be moving it to the house.

Should I stick with the original gas fire pit idea then?

… did your house burn down?

Also it’s a fence and not the house. Anyways, my experience with fires are campfires at campsites and I’ve never had any issues with large sparks or the fire getting out of control.

Would you think that a solo stove would be a better solution in the same location or 2 ft over?

Yeah definitely not ideal but the yard is small so it’s not possible to be 10ft away from structures. It could be a bit further from the fence but then it would block the path of travel so I can see why the previous owner chose the current location.

I personally planned to get a portable gas fire pit (the ones you can take camping during an early stage fire ban) but since the house came with this pit I feel like it’d be a waste to not use it especially if I’m really only looking to build a fire the size of those portable ones
