We 3d printed 3 different parts of the fire pit and then made silicone molds of the prints. We used Quikrete 5000 concrete mix in the silicone molds to make the final blocks for the Firepit.

Fire is a great way to enjoy the view. If you have a lot with a view, locate fire features at the edge of the property in a place where people will have a chance to enjoy the fire while taking in the surroundings.
