How To Build An Outdoor Fireplace In 20 Minutes | DIY

In this video I show you how I built our outdoor fireplace. This was a project that took 7 months to complete. And that's only because my wife and I could only work on this on the weekends. We worked on this project during the winter months so we didn't have extra daylight in the evening after work. The fireplace is 80" wide and 14' tall with a 43" wide firebox. So yeah it's pretty big. It took 34 bags of 60lb concrete for the footing and approximately 360 cinder blocks to create the structure. The outside is finished off with a veneer stone.

We tapped onto our natural gas line coming off the house to use as our fire starter. No more lighting kindling.

Even though the project took 7 months to complete it has been well worth it. It has given us an extension off of our living room and a true outdoor living space for entertaining and just cozying up my the fire!

//ABOUT ME
By day I'm a Functional Medicine Doctor and Chiropractic Physician. Outside of the office I have a lot of different hobbies and interests. Everything from cycling, home projects, wood working, and tinkering with my F150. I love doing DIY projects and just being a creator. Some have failed miserably while others have been a huge success. No matter the project there was always something to learn from each. There's a certain satisfaction from making something yourself. I've learned so much from other professionals and DIY'ers here on YouTube. This channel is dedicated to helping you tackle your own DIY projects and hopefully taking some of the mystery and fear out of the equation.
