Hey Wayne

That flue looks good! Might be a trendsetter.

HI Wayne

I was thinking of square or is it rectangle ?

Looks great. Hmmmmm thinking I might go square too but double walled.

Rectangle 7" x 10" because thats the internal size of my chimney, no real planing went in to it.
It works well though, the smoke seems to get sucked up like there's vacuum on the other end and when the smoke does get out past the the chimney opening, it gets sucked back in.
Since adding the flue there's a big noticeable difference with the draw.

It looks better then I thought it would but I plan to cover it up.

This is the picture I based the overall look of my oven,its the one idea I had the whole time.
The picture has been flipped to copy my outdoor layout.

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

Hahaha,optimistic or pessimistic Ill let you know when I'm finished.


Well its not going to be exactly the same as you can tell from the arch, but its going to look something like it. corner build ,boxed in ,rendered wooden bench tops and even the Spanline roof.

It should look good anyway

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

I think it is looking great already.

I love the idea of timber bench tops. You should be able to find some good timber around there. I remember a long time ago we bought a slab of hoop pine from a timber mill at Coutts Crossing to make a dining table.

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

I have a question on oven brushes where the best place to get them and whats better Brass or natural bristles ?

[Wayne73]

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

Good point! So does anyone know of a good place to get natural fiber brushes?The damp mop is more for bread making right?

I don't know why people delete posts

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

I use an Oates SHAPED BRICKIES BRUSH B-18205 - works really well and seems to be lasting fine. Not real common so I had to search around but ended up getting some old floor stock from a cleaning equipment shop at quite a discount.

Not really. Your picturing using a domestic mop large and full of water!
What I use is a broom handle with some strips of cloth wired to the end I replace them next use. I usually use old towel 6 strips 50 mm wide is plenty. Wring it out and wipe the hearth the steam from the mope lifts the ash and it floats on a raft of steam in front of the mop , cool to watch, and satisfies the child bride the hearth is truly clean. I don't believe it takes the heat from the floor anyway its replenished by the reflected heat from the flames instantly.

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

I use a brickies brush. Natural fibre with a wood back. Bunnings @$16. I fitted another block of wood on the back and fitted a 22mm dowel handle in a hole drilled at the appropriate angle with a spade bit.

It works fine to move ash after the coals etc are out of the way. There isn't enough ash after sweeping to worry about. Like any other non metallic brush it will probably make a dog noise (woof) if you get it too close to the fire.

Re: Wood fired oven corner build in Grafton NSW

Sounds good Steve, ill check out bunnings tomorrow .
Thanks everyone.
