Re: pompeii oven construction began today
Paulages was an influential early builder, I learned a lot from his postings. His images were externally hosted, and the links are dead. I looked at his photobucket page, and there are only a few images there.

Re: pompeii oven construction began today
This has been an interesting forum to read. However starting on page 2 and ending on page 6 the pictures don't appear. Any suggestions on how to see them?

I've singed a few eyebrows myself, using 151 and paraffin oil.

i played a gig once, where the singer of another band decided it was a good idea to blow fire during their set in a room with 10' ceilings. he didn't really know what he was doing, and after a while of spilling PGA all over the floor, managed to drop his torch into the puddle sending an enormous fireball across the stage, singeing all of the hair off of his face. someone was really quick, and grabbing a fire extinguisher had it out in seconds...but not before the fire alarm began ringing. so 300 people tore out of the building in panic.
this was a house party kind of thing, in an industrial district. someone made a big announcement, "ok, when the fire department gets here, say IT WAS AN AMP THAT CAUGHT ON FIRE, AND WE PUT IT OUT." of course the first person they saw blurts out, "someone was breathing fire and they ignited the stage!" so we all assumed that that was it...the show would be shut down, and there would be cops and F.D. officials for some unlucky person to deal with. i was picturing something straight off of COPS the television show...a riot in the street with 300 punk rockers who just wanted to see some music, and some bored cops who just wanted to mess up somebody's night.
however, we were in canada. policemen there are very polite. so they leave, and 300 filed back in and the show went on.
oh yeah, and the kid blowing fire? went to the hospital with 2nd degree burns.

It's so much fun! I learned from a friend who's a professional magician.
It's really not that hard, but I warn you, I singed my eyebrows off learning (spraying INTO the wind, doh!) and I know people who have burned their mouths, although not worse than that slice of pizza right out of the oven!

Stick to 151 or similar and it's not so much abuse since you really don't want to drink that stuff..

yes, that was certainly alcohol abuse. perhaps a better thrill-burn would be the mortgage bill, phone bill, (oven materials bill?), etc...

That was awesome Robert - An abuse of alcohol, but amusing none the less.

The things we do for science
Too funny. I think it is admirable that you are willing to abuse your body just to forward the science of brick oven construction. Three cheers.
