Hi all,
I love the look of mortared stone combined with brick edging, and am thinking about making the stand for my oven with this method. My biggest question about this is how I would pour the slab for the dome to stand on. Would you build up a layer of stone around the edges of the slab to conceal the concrete, or just pour it on top of the stone and have it visible as a layer - maybe with the same colour cement as the mortar?
Or could you construct some supporting pillars inside the stone shell, and pour the slab on top of them, inside the stone work?
(examples attached)
Any opinions/examples? Is there a better way?
