It is like anything, how hard do you want to make it. Yes that is an off handed answer but one that is true to ones own nature. By that I mean, things are only as hard or simple to do as one imagines it to be. Building a rear yard gas fire pit is can be one of those projects.
When I built mine, it was simple in design and took only part of a Sat. to create. Since that point though it has gone though many up-grades, (I can't leave things alone and I think nothing is ever truly done until I am dead and gone). But I like playing with things anyway. Most people build it once and enjoy it for as long as they want to. Again the issue is how tough can it be to build a back garden fire pit?
If you're a beginner and can handle a spade a hammer and can change a wench, you can build a fire pit.
A handy place to start is google images of fire pits and take some time looking at them to see what you like and equally as critical see parts of it that you don't like. Get a basic idea of what does it for you.
Learn all about the basic parts which make up a fire pit, nothing complicated or magical here.
Next google fire pit kits, and find the kit that will work for you.
Now the hard part, where to put it? Why is this hard? No two folks can agree precisely where anything should be, so it is a matter of compromises. Take your time here and think about it, envision every side of it. Height, length, width, where breezes in your area come from,the setting sun, trees other plants, how a long way from the kitchen, back door, is it straightforward to get to and see or be seen from. Think it though because moving it once it's set up is a pain.
Once all this is done the building of it really is the simple part.
Have a great time with it.
