Hot-rod style fire pit

Artisan John T. Unger's recycled steel fire pits cost $450 and are highly badass! I realize this isn't a barbecue pit, per se, but -- hotdogs grilled over a hotrod-style bowl would be, well, totally hot.

Ungerâ€™s currently mired in what he has referred to as â€œan unwanted education in copyright lawâ€ – he obtained legal copyrights some time ago to protect his original sculptures (like the one above) from piracy – but now, a ripoff artist named Rick Wittrig has not only begun manufacturing and selling products which are extremely similar to Ungerâ€™s, but has even gone so far as to bring a federal lawsuit against Unger to have the copyrights for Ungerâ€™s own original artwork overturned.
