V groove block are for curved or pipe insulation. You want "flat block" CaSi

Ok so I picked up some CalSi boards from a commercial insulation place in San Diego and I don't think they sold me the right stuff. It has V-Grooves down the length of each board. Thoughts? I am going to call tomorrow and see if they have "ungrooved" ones.

Love the Lego mock-up! It'll be fun going back to page 1 of your build thread and compare the concept with the finished product.

Here is the space "before".......... I broke ground and poured the foundation 3 weeks ago and have since built the stand for the oven and poured the hearth this past weekend. Currently laying out the floor and fine tuning my IT. Look forward to the experience and having wisdom to lean upon when the going gets tough.

Holy crap I cannot believe that I am starting a build thread. After literally years of lurking, taking notes, and day-dreaming the time has finally come! Don’t know if I am really excited or gonna soil my britches……or maybe both!!!! So my plan consists of a 42” oven flanked by a 48” Santa Maria (it is a California thang) grill that I had made in Santa Maria a few months ago and an equal length counter on the other side.

Here is my original sketch that I did a few years ago. Few things have changed with regards to the house, but overall the concept is the same. My son and I made an awesome lego model too J
