Bonjour everybody...
I live in the sunniest part of France - I'm tall and hungry. After looking at the cost of buying a WFO, I have changed tack and am beginning to investigate what is required to build one. I'd quite like it to be 'mobile' (1 - just to roll on sturdy casters across the terrace and 2 - maybe to be able to lift the base and oven off the frame with the help of friends should I ever move, or even want/need to build a replacement oven).
So my current thinking is a sturdy wood frame, then a base of marine ply, vermiculite concrete and then firebricks. Top this with an oven cast over either a gym ball or a sand dome, and make it with layers of refractory clay, vermiculite and some outer coating that provides some weatherproofing and aesthetic qualities.
I am the opposite of Mr DIY (whatever that is) - I have a load of questions and so will begin browsing these forums - and post if I am unable to work it out myself!
Cheers
