new oven finished

[Lisha Sowder]

Wow has it been hot. We finialy finished our oven
It was 98 degrees when we set the oven
Mike and I set out to do this ourselves and we did and we love it
It has been a great experenice and worth all the work and sweat.
The rock on the oven came off our farm which made it special to us
After finishing the oven we let it set for two weeks and then cured for 5 days trying to keep the fire going day and night.
We fired our oven this weekend got the dome and sides white before cooking pizza and they were wonderful {cooked perfect}
and so far no cracks!


A special thanks to James for all the great advice on the forum
