Polymeric sand is definitely handy—I've had good luck with it around fire pits and patios. But honestly, safety-wise, I'd pay more attention to your edging suggestion. Metal strips or bricks around the pit not only look good but also help keep embers contained. I've seen gravel pits without proper edging let sparks escape pretty easily...Not fun. A little extra barrier can go a long way toward peace of mind.

Good points here—I just finished my first custom fire pit setup last month, and edging was a lifesaver. Couple quick things I learned:
- Metal edging looks sleek but heats up fast (ouch...found out the hard way).
- Brick or stone edging stays cooler and feels safer overall.
- Definitely worth the extra work for peace of mind.
