    Great to hear from you Cajun Knight!
    Good luck with your WFO. Last weekend (in Shreveport) I didn't have the time or energy to do the whole "cookout" thing, but I bought a mess of boiled crawfish for our guest (from New Mexico) and cooked a spinach artichoke cheese dip in the WFO (the heat wasn't real high, and it cooked in 5 minutes). Anyway, it was a taste of Louisiana, and a good complement to the crawfish.

          Looks like a good start. I love the inverted wicker "dummy dome".

                That is great news! I hope you enjoy building your oven as much as I did

                  Re: Starting my WFO finally

                  thanks all, glad to be back. i have made some minor changes to the base. i have shortened by 4" to increase insulation. its kind of hard to work being in a wheelchair and being one handed but where there is will there is a way. more pics to follow as soon there is more to show.

                      Travis - my opening is around 22 x 14. I have a 1 inch reveal so the net opening is around 20 x 13. I've been pretty happy with it so far.

                              Awesome Travis - at the end of the day, it's all about friends and family. God speed and I am looking forward to seeing a pic of your first pizza.
