Napolitian style 106cm build inside a hobbit house

It's springtime here in Norway so its been warming up. Unfortunately some recent bereavements in the family have put quite a few things on hold, but I'm hoping to push on with it all when I get my head straight. Thank you all for the nice comments

With the hole in the roof dome it reminds me of the Pantheon in Rome, the worlds largest unreinforced dome. Great work, have any hobbits moved in yet?

[Origen]

That is truly spectacular...I'm stunned!

Very impressive Im pulling up the chair and waiting for the next instalment.
I love it when people with skills do great things

You've done an amazing job on this Crisp! Really looking forward to 2017 and how you incorporate the trolley system to fully utilize the side spaces and the final design of the modular sofa.

Hope you had a fabulous holiday season and a great 2016!

Wow. I've been hoping to see an update on this build. Just incredible.

Managed to get the domed roof completed a few months back. Its winter here, so work has stopped until spring

Thanks Gulf, garage door tracks and rollers, that's a clever idea. I've got quite a lot of space to the sides and it would be a shame not o use it, I'm planning to utilise space within the hobbit house best as possible as it is only 6m² (66 square feet) I might have a go with something like Jims' two trolley's either side. Inside the hobbit house I was thinking of building a circular modular sofa around the walls, with a round table in the middle. When all the segments are pulled together it becomes a double bed a bit like these designs circular sofa. The table would have to be collapsable some how to become the same height of the seating

No wheels exactly. I used an old garage door track and garage door track rollers. The drawer works very similar to a kitchen cabinet drawer. However, my drawer does not use all the available space under the oven. I sacrificed that space for ease of access.

Check out Jim's jcg31 under oven cart design below. It maximizes every bit of the space under there.

Thanks Gulf I'll keep that elbow height in mind when I decide on the final floor height. Your oven is an inspiration to all, so well executed and thought out. I especially like the cupboard / trolley underneath, that's a fantastic idea. I think 'I'll be stealing that one . A cupboard where cooking utensils and things can be stored, in front of a connected trolley which can which can be pulled out. I thought of using wheels underneath, is this how you did it? The only trouble with mine is the width of the cupboard/trolley is determined by the opening, not the whole width of the room underneath. and there is some wasted space to the sides. Any thoughts much appreciated?

I agree with not having to stoop. Most op for around elbow height. Mine is about mid sternum, I'm glad that it is not any lower.

Hi Gulf,

Thank you, the finished floor height is approximately 105cmm, but this can be adjusted when I lay the finished floor. The normal height for a kitchen bench is around 90cm, but i figured a little higher means that you're not stooped over too much whilst working the oven, In one of the pictures you can see a brick on edge on the floor next to the fireplace. What is the usual height for a pizza oven?

[Gulf]

Crisp,

Very nice! Now, you have my full attention . I'm looking forward to following your progress. No matter how long it takes lol.

EDIT: How high is the fiinished floor of your oven from where you will be standing?
