How Do You Build A Micro Sized Outdoor Fireplace From Recycled Materials?
• Collect your raw materials before you begin construction (see the Things You’ll Need list below). Strip the labels off two steel cans. Remove the top and bottom of each with a can opener, and save the can bottoms for a later step. • Can marked for cutting. Red tape represents area to be removed. Using a permanent marker, make two marks on opposite sides of the bottom rim of one can. Extend these up to about a little more than an inch from the top of the can and across to form a rectangle. • The can with the panel cut out and the sides bent out. Note the razor-sharp edges. Using your tin cutters (very strong scissors might work here) cut out the rectangular area you marked in the previous step. Use tape to cover the freshly cut edges or smooth them with a metal file to prevent injury. Gently bend the bottom of the cut area out to form a wider opening. Save the cut-out piece for a later step. • Cut along the dotted line and remove the shaded area. Scale: 4 squares per inch. Cut around
