Re: Richmond new outdoor kitchen pizza oven build

I started to unwrap the Volta 100 components to make sure there was no breakage. All looks good. The casting of the pieces is good not great - definitely some small voids/air pockets. Total dome thickness is 2.25".

Will be assembling tomorrow and will comment on the overall fit and ease of assembly....and of course more pics....

Re: Richmond new outdoor kitchen pizza oven build

I finally pulled the trigger and ordered my oven. I went with a Sunday Volta 100 (40" diameter cooking surface). The price delivered was quite a bit better than the Casa100. The US dealer for Sunday ovens was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions over a 2-3 month period with patience and understanding. The oven should arrive later this week (it is only being shipped from NJ to VA)...More info to come.....

Tscar:

I m on it....I pulled the forms today and reset them on top in anticipation of a vermicrete pour tomorrow. My mason bailed on me today so I m going to do the 7" vermicrete pour tomorrow.

I moved the vermicrete in so that my metal studs will sit on the concrete foundation and the upper walls can be flush with the base with veneer stone up to the roofline.

Are you planning on filling that form with vermiculite concrete? If so, you may want to move it in to closer to the dimensions of the oven itself, not the stand.

Re: Richmond new outdoor kitchen pizza oven build

Wow, your kitchen area is looking fantastic. That is going to be a great place to hang out.

I am leaning toward going with the blankets at this point as I am so tired of mixing concrete and mortar. I will check into some internet blankets for pricing. Your Vermiculite sure is a lot cheaper tho.

keep the pics coming. cheers.
