[SCA-AE] Portable fire pit plans?

[Ruth Morrisson]

Greetings from Myfanwy!
I seem to recall directions in an old issue of T.I. (sorry, don't remember the 
issue year or # offhand).   Those types of firepits are apparently very popular in 
places like the West Kingdom, where ground fires are more or less permanently 
banned.
I will try to look through old issues sometime this week and see what I can find.
