The next fire table was built by Brian Johnson of Omaha Nebraska, very nice! We supplied the components and Brian did the hard part, the table.
We don't have the construction pictures but we do have the table finished. Add
Bronze Base glass and to pit with 1 lb of Ice, you are done.
The blue is actually food coloring.
This table was built for the Borman's in Arizona.
They picked out the tile and we went to work.
We can use any tile, granite, marble, metal, etc. What ever you can dream we can build.We can add a water feature if you like as well. There is nothing we can't do!
We are going to show you a few dozen pictures of the construction so that if you wanted to build one yourself, well here is almost how.
Below is the tile lay out pictures we sent the customer.
Below we cut away the base board to insert the glass to laminate the mosaic glass on to.
We started with a bronze glass for the insert for the light to pass through.
The customer choose the New Yellow Glass for the insert for the mosaic portion.
Now the laminating begins of a few thousand pieces.
Different lighting was tried until we found what worked best.
A 20" x 20" pan was installed with an 18" double stainless steel burner for propane was installed.
The lighting also lit the bottom portion of the table. The lighting was on a dimmer control as well.
In the pictures above you can see the propane controls or the fire feature.
In between the glass mosaic pieces it was grouted which can also be any color.
The table was on 6" wheels with a 20 lb propane tank underneath behind an access door.
The little metal corners on the bottom of the table you see are out riggers to set the table and stop it from wiggling when in place.
Below is amber glass in the fire table.
Below we added a bit of dark red orange topper.
Below you can see the thermo coupler in the bottom left corner.
Below the table has a bronze base glass with dark red orange topper on top.
The fire table below was built for Dr. Ramsey Burton in Kentucky. We are going to show you from beginning in the shop to the finished product that Ramsey envisioned for his patio. Ramsey did a wonderful job in planing, building and execution of this project. The glass he used was a Starfire base with Ice Ice Ice on top. Here we go:
This was the lay out for the table to come!
these were the pictures we sent Ramsey after assembly and testing of the fire bowl, water pumps and fibre optics. The glass we tested with usually is our Multi Mix. It tends to show off many colors and always looks great.
Above you can see the gas line and electrical
Access panel below.
Below the bowl was fitted.
Don't ever forget to install a trimming valve!
There are 6 colors on Ramsey's color wheel in the fibre optics.
Above and below you can see the cover Ramsey have made to protect the fire table when not in use.
Great job Ramsey!
The Fire Table below was installed in Sacramento California by and for Yard Crashers. The finished pictures will be posted on the Yard Crashers page when this project is installed after 01 20 10. This episode was to be labeled "Outdoor Shower" on HGTV and the DIY Network but somehow it was labeled "Modern Fire Wall" go figure? It is episode 302 on HGTV or DIY Network. The details will be shown on the DIY page when and as soon as we receive them from the producers. We built a square aluminum pan with an 18" double stainless steel ring and used one of our FPPK kits for the propane fuel. This will be shown on the episode coverage as well. Here are the pictures of the back yard and the finished fire table using propane.





The next table was built for a customer in La Jolla California. The table was 30" x 60" with a 24" x 54" fire pit area. They are going to make their own granite top to overlay.
All metal construction and their granite cut and installed.
The next Water Over Fire Feature can be made in any configuration, size or shape. We can install it in a table or leave it as a stand alone feature. What ever you like. This particular bowl is a spun aluminum 30" bowl with a 26" water ring and about 100 lbs of Multi Mix base glass. We added a few of our Terra Cotta Fire Balls in the center.
The next fire pits were designed and built for the Marriott (Islandia previously) in Mission Bay California.
We started with several cardboard mock up tables for the hotel to approve.
We will explain as we move forward.
The hotel decided on the granite and we cut the granite with water jet and polished the edges.
These were installed on the private patios of the hotel suites.
Valves and location are important as well.
They ended up using a thermo couple and pilot light system with a battery operated igniter.
