Hi all,
So ... after months of planning and reading i have finally started construction of my oven!!
Firstly thankyou to every one who has helped so far and hopefully a few will follow this build and chip in along the way with suggestions and tips and answer questions i'll no doubt have!!
ok so the build is a 32" pompeii oven made mostly out of reclaimed materials i have managed to source through work and off friends, who i must note are probably sick to the back teeth of listening to me go on about the oven all the time!
the dome its self is going to be constructed of solid clay reds on a storage heater firebrick hearth built with a lime mortar mix and insulated with vermicrete then rockwool then more vermicrete and a stucco igloo finish.
ok i'll pop some pictures up of where i'm up to and see what you guys think!!
