    thanks guys i will have a look at that first link and follow what you said Gulf. At least there are only 72 pages now not 100 odd LOL

    I will on the others over the next period week or two.

    Hi Colin,

    I think that JR is right. But, I also think that Mitch was hand repairing each link as they were presented to him. When doing a copy and paste of your first link
    Base Slab Construction post 24 it points to http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/51/n...tml#post142449

    Going to page 2, post # 24 and clicking on the post number it brings up a box that now points to https://community.fornobravo.com/for...901#post199901

    I am afraid that those links will have to be repaired by hand. It is something you can do as an edit. I know that that is time consuming but, it is doable.

    Colin, that problem may go all the way back to when they broke the site with the big update. I tried using your index during my build but ended up having to surf through your entire 72 pages.
    I started a thread a while back and when Mitch was here he was pretty good at either fixing right away or providing status.
    Nice work by the way
    The forum is slowly recovering from the "upgrade", so I wanted to start this thread to help the moderators find/fix damaged links. I think I know that links to the photo gallery won't be fixable, but if you find others please post them here and Mitch and Co can hopefully fix them.

    Great to hear from you awaiting your next oven... But it's important to unpack a few boxes and put up a few pictures before starting the next oven.
    regards Dave
    Nice hearing from you Dave....
    Yes very much agree, getting carpet installed on Friday, Curtains hopefully a week later. Floors to stop squeaking, painting to do. WE are currently walking around furniture.

    Will post some photos of back yard tomorrow.

    Am hoping to get the base set out and poured new year.

    Wow! The oven looks great. I remember the first days of your build when the discussion was about tying it in with a Japanese garden. You definitely nailed that. I'm already looking forward to your next oven build.
    thx Joe.

    Will be identical oven, in slightly larger different Japanese garden. I loved the garden so much I will be replicating it. On selling i removed lantern and bowl and grass trees so they will be incorporated into landscaping/

    The oven stand will be bigger 2m x 2m and hearth a little lower with base table same height as hearth being the only difference, The surface product i used to seal dome of oven i purchased enough to complete the new oven. Using 600x300x75mm tiled hearth, will be increasing calsil under floor to 75mm thickness will also increase thickness of ceramic blanket. I still wont be using a vermiculate layer and will stick with shiralite layer locking the dome.

    And just a couple of the front. I timed completion perfectly so that everything was in flower for open house weekend. Sold day after weekend open for inspection. Flowers all started dieing off the following week.

    Nice House Colin, I like the way you have constructed the outdoor kitchen area. I can see you have put some of your creativity in to the house as well. Well done mate. You deserve that good return.

    I have started my build over on Pompeii Construction under A Land Down Under 39". Slow progress with all this rain.
    Regards Dave

    Am planning new oven as we speak and hoping to get base slab done by end January. I now get to implement changes and improvments. yay!!!! eg. Hearth, landing and external table all on the same level.

    at some point will pick up hearth tiles 610x305x75mm thick. Get permission to build, and then I guess, since I was layed off work a week ago [arrrggghhhh], contemplate starting the oven.

    Will need to plan well, am doing the same again, but hopefully even better. Will be changing my brick saw compound mitre jig to be more accurate with brick cutting as I am attempting to build oven with absolutely no mortar between bricks eg. more so than current oven.

    looking at finish similar to litekeeper oven, table level with hearth and landing all around.

    All this while looking for new work.
    Hey Colin
    Did you find new work, and has the New Oven started yet. I am about ready to post some of the progress for my first oven......yahoooooo!
