    I finished my bottom arch today and here are a few photos. Next, after laying a few more blocks and doing a little form work, I will pour my hearth slab extension. I'll let that set up a few days then start building my first vent arch, w/a heat break between the arches. I planned it so I can use the same arch template for the vent arches as I used for the bottom arch.

    Thank you and I agree. Seemed appropriate to have a couple in celebration of the pluggin'. The brewer is building a new plant in the area, by the Asheville Airport. It's supposed to be really nice, complete w/a restaurant, tours, etc. I might have to check it out.

    Thanks for sharing. I'm sure lots of builders will love to go that route. I looked at it and thought it was interesting. Anything anyone can use to make their build easier for them is a good thing.

    Just started back on it yesterday...working on the brick chimney facade.
    Great. Looking forward to seeing it. Way too much rain around here lately to get much done. I wish we could send it all out west, where they can sure use it.

    I finished up my dome a couple of days ago and here are the latest photos. Next to work on is the brick arch for the bottom storage area.

    Have to relish those last few bricks in the dome, as it'll be done, though I see that you have the remainder of the entryway to finish.
