Alright, so here's where we stand on the firepit. After taking a look at everything, the price for a stainless steel 11gauge firepit got up there. So we set the idea aside and Jim was able to coordinate a group buy through Southern Xpeditions (@dcoursler).

Somebody posted the firepit on here already, but the one Derrick (Southern Xpeditions) makes is pretty similar to what I had in mind. It's slightly smaller and made with mild steel, but comes with a cooking grate and carrying case. Overall, it should work quite nicely

It retails at $289 but Derrick is offering a pretty big discount if we can get at least 20 pits ordered. He can ship them individually, but shipping would be roughly $35-$45 because of the weight. For those living near Seattle, we could have them shipped together and distribute them afterwards to save on s&h.

I'll be PM'ing everyone that was interested with the pricing. If anyone else would like to jump in on the group buy, PM me for pricing and any questions you may have. Once the final order is placed, the lead time would be roughly 2-4 weeks.

As cool as it was, having the TacomaWorld logo cut into the firepit isn't possible. Going to take down the poll to avoid any further confusion and we'll stick with the stock logo that Southern Xpeditions offers.

Final order will be placed on Sunday May 19th. So let me know by Sunday afternoon if you want in!

More information from Derrick:
https://www.southernxpeditions.com/swag/firepit
That is the product, it is the Pack Flat Firepit. It is 7ga Mild Steel, MIL scale coating left in tact, the firepits are cut on a fiber optic laser to ensure the cuts are clean and require zero cleanup. They are cut here in the USA in NC and the bags are handmade by Blue ridge Overland Gear in Bedford, VA. The bag is PVC truck tarp on the inside so it doubles as a firewood sling when the firepit is setup(so you're not carrying around logs like we have always done).

It is a 4 piece design firepit with the 12x12 cooking grate provided as well. I most times will put a small amount of charcoal in the bottom of the firepit, add a few pieces of wood and cook my steak or whatever it is I am doing on the grill that night and when done just put logs on top of the charcoal and you now have a roaring fire.

It packs down to about 1” tall with the bag so it can fit virtually anywhere.

Interested

Nevin · May 15, 2019

Could probably have 40 interested buyers if you had a set price. I bet alot of folks are waiting on price before committing.

I got the answers I needed after I PM'd him

JimSnell · May 15, 2019

When they say price is too good to advertise... Not always a gimmick.

Comes with a secret handshake. Very exclusive.

Dor · May 16, 2019

Got my answers, I'm very in.

Bishop2Queens6 · May 16, 2019

Totally in.

If anyone else is on the fence on this, most other laser cut, collapsible pits are 14 gauge mild steel; this is 7 gauge, over twice this thickness at 3/16 and at a better price point than others via the gb.

This is a perfect size for some logs and potentially a couple steaks too for a small group.

I plan to use lump charcoal in this with some nice apple wood when overlanding for some delicious steaks.

Kwisak · May 16, 2019

I would be in pending price as well

Tsinajinii · May 16, 2019

Rchr · May 17, 2019

Im interested as well but would like to know the group price. You have a PM.

ysbohle · May 17, 2019

Alright so I think I got back to everyone but if I missed you, let me know.

It's almost the weekend so I'm going to start cleaning up the list and removing anyone that hasn't confirmed with me. If you have a (?) behind your name and you want in, let me know soon.
