Re: Sonotube stand... Opinions needed

Thanks Mark.....I wish I can start cooking pizza by the end of the month. But I still have so much more cleaning up of our demolished deck to do in our back yard. There's so much debris back there I'm renting a 30 or a 40 yard dumpster.
I wish I can devote 100% of my free time to the oven, but at the same time I've gotta keep my wife happy (with the back yard work)...

Very nice!

Stand is done!

I uncovered and took the supports and forms off the stand this morning. I will spend the next couple of days picking up materials locally.
A local dealer sells 24"x36"x3" insulating boards so I'll probably go with that instead of 5" of vermiculite/portland I had originally planned.

Thanks again!

I cut and temporarily placed the 3" boards today. There's a tiny amount of gap filling and leveling using a sand/fireclay mixture I must still do.

I will start a new oven build thread once I start laying the floor.
