Nope, not yet. I think a stainless enclosure would beat stucco by a mile, but not many of us have those advanced fabrication skills.

We look forward to you starting a thread on this interesting topic.

Re: sheet metal enclosure

That is really cool that is!
couple questions, where did you buy the sheet metal? how much of it did it require? and why the pizza boxes?

Re: sheet metal enclosure

i used the pizza boxes to build my oven tempering fires . the sheet metal cover was built to my design by the welding fabricating class at the local joint vocational school. the cover weight was 97 pounds. the dimensions gave me thee inches of insulation on the sides and four on top.
