Preparation and Installation PyZique BBQ Ring Directions
PyZique & ANTIQUE PyZique with a PyZique grill grate can be used to build a BBQ
that has a massive and impressive appearance. The diagram below shows a cross-section of
the layers necessary to build a BBQ. Single-face lip-type stones do not allow a
BBQ to be built. An example of a PyZique BBQ is shown below. Note that each layer
of stones are set such that stone seams are staggered. The BBQ may be built to the
height of your choice by adding or deleting layers from the example shown. Glue the top
three layers of stones together with paver grade adhesive.
32" Molded Tetra Pond
Step 1 Use compactable rock chips to build a pad on virgin or highly compacted
soil. The top of this rock pad should be at least 1" below grade.
Step 2 Using a center stake lay out PyZique stones in a 16" radius from the
center stake to the short face of each stone. A circle with a 32" inside diameter will
require 14 PyZique stones. Slight movement of the circle of stones may be required for
best alignment of all stones.
Step 3 Build additional height by adding layers of PyZique stones. Each layer must have a
stagger at the intersections of the stones. It is preferred that the center of each stone
in one layer be above the intersection of the two stones below it. Note: The top layer
should be laid smooth side up and glued
Step 4 When the PyZique Stone circle is at your desired height and the adhesive
has set, fill the center of the circle, with clean porous rock that will drain easily, to
a level that will allow the Pilot Rock steel barbecue ring or a 32" molded tetra pond to
be installed and rest upon the fill rock and the PyZique stone circle.
