Here we go.
Although My wife gave me permission to go buy a modular, I decided that the $ could be better spent elseware in the patio. My intent is to build a naples model, 1/2 bricks on the first course with higher interior. I hope that this oven will be doing a lot more than just pizza. My son is 10 and he's a picky eater, at least to date, I hope that changes sooner than later. I'm attaching a few photos for reference, the last one was a photo taken of a cob oven in Peru. The photos 3 and 4 show a picture from the roof and one from the patio, the blocks are just dry stacked to get an idea how the oven could fit in the space. 2 weeks ago I picked up the HF 10" wet saw. I sprung for an additional 1yr warantee for 15 total months. Although I had thought that I could get bricks for just under a USD, it appears that it'll be $1.19 each. I've been through Dino's build and a few others and feel I'll be closer to what Dino has done with respect brickwork. I found the WFO Brick placement tool, furthermore to be described as the "weegie". This name is as a fond memory of Joel the carpenter, that I worked with in about 1973-1974. He always refered to any home brew tool as a Weegie. This tool looks like it should be part of the FB for sale inventory. I'll have to make one of these up. The concrete patio was a response to the removal of the redwood deck I finally had to remove, dry rot, and termites. The grade of what was under the deck needed reworking, so I called Mike, my aerospace engineer friend, who found out he liked running his own Bobcat service after the defense industry collapsed in the 1980s. To make a long story short, what I had hoped was going to be a quick and inexpensive backyard project, became somthing much more.
Let the Games begin!
