Re: The build has begun!

I wish I would have dry stacked my block and filled them in. Would have made things alot easier. Good call on that. Looking forward to following your build.

Have fun, it's a lot of work but well worth the effort.

Good call with gluing the starter bars in rather than trying to pre set them which never works.

I've started building the block stand. It will be dry stacked with the cells filled in with concrete. Then it will be on to the hearth.

Thanks, my wife bought a light so I can work in the evening. I'm really motivated to work on the oven since I've been planning this for over a year.

Congratulations on your start!

Looks like you worked late that day

Seems a good start on an enjoyable project, godspeed

This is my first attempt at building anything like this. I downloaded the plans for a 42" oven off the Forno Bravo web site and have been researching as much as possible to answer any of my questions. The forum has been a great source of reference. I will try to attach a photo of the foundation that was just poured the other day. The first of many.
