That’s a good looking pit.!!
But how r u going to clean it out.??
I bet it will be years before it needs a cleanout. I burn 2 - 3 cords of wood a year in my firepit and clean it out every 3 - 4 years, getting less than 2 wheel barrow loads of ash for the garden, (less than 10 cubic feet). His ash is going to wash into the gravel and disappear for the most part. My firepit is 6' across built on a concrete pad.

I agree, nice job on the firepit.

Nice!
Dry pine split small burns hot and fairly fast.
Follow with small split hardwood. Smaller wood (3" or less) burns better/hotter for outdooor fires.

Holy shllt! 2-3 cords in a firepit? I burn 3 cords each winter to heat the house.

I like the ventilation hole design along the perimeter. I guess that's why its called a "Smokeless" fire pit?

I’m kinda partial to a fire on an elevated platform.
