Looks good , but deeper is better , as you want to put your iron into the fire horizontally . Go ahead and build a pile of coke/coal over your firepot . Just mash the sides in and top down for a hot and compact fire , use water to control the size of the fire and to make coke as you work . & check out abana.org .

It looks sturdy enough, what are you using for an air source?
