Looks awesome Ferdy!

Finally got a computer that works...  

I can't stress enough to let your build cure for at least 30-45 days before putting any fire in it.  Then start with small fires and work up over a couple weeks, before you run full temp.

I finished the brickwork the first week of April. I put the cladding around the oven brickwork two weeks later. I then started firing it around the end of April, starting with a small newspaper fire, then a small twig fire a few days later, and every few days after that a progressively larger fire. The first pizza (and full firing) was mid-May. So, I probably was a little quick with the fire, but no cracks or leaks.

I cannot tell you all how appreciative I am for all of your suggestions. It's turning out to be a fine project which I have enjoyed immensely. It wouldn't have turned out that way without your suggestions.

"We poured a concrete counter. We glued fiberglass I dilation to the edge of the form to give a textured edge. Once we pulled the forms, we brushed the insulation off with wire brushes, and what little did not come off, we burned off with a torch."

What is "fiberglass I dilation"? I love your countertops! I am planning to build an outdoor kitchen and had not yet found what I want as a countertop - I think I now have!!!

Sorry. It should read “fiberglass insulation”. Fat fingers + autocorrect.

 

[pianov]

Oh sure, I understand. Thanks. So I'm guessing you had a wooden frame/form for the countertop and you simply lined the inside of the form with a strip of insulation? I really like the end result!

Looks very nice. What temperature are you cooking that circular saw?

That’s the wet grinder on the grill. It’s at about 110 in the sun. Lol
