Fire on the Dock

This is an intentional fire on the dock, in a specially designed 'fire pit' that floats in a space enclosed by our dock.

It makes for a unique centerpiece for socializing on the water. We love it.

Dale and Patricia (see Patricia Brace), local performance artist and PALZ citizen scientist, worked together on creating this piece of practical art. He restructured our dock to enclose "exhibits" that would feature beautiful stump gardens or a fire pit. The metal pit, of re-used materials, was created and welded by Patricia using one of the forms from her recent solo art show.

How does the fire pit stay up and not sink?

Patricia welded 4 big metal rings to each corner, which we affix to dock attachments, & join them with a large carabineer or chain (adjustable)
