Woodfired Oven Build Day 1

Wed Jun 08, 2011 9:37 am  

Well I have made a start, all the goodies were delivered this morning.
So I dug a trench for the foundation blocks and checked all was level, and built up 2 layers of block work, not the best of jobs but it’ll all be rendered to match the bbq, it’s level and sturdy though so should be good.

Then I laid some concrete joists over the blocks this will have a layer of 6″ thick celcon block on top.

I am knackered and have the biggest blister ever on my hand from digging, but happy to have finally started.

Hopefully 2 more days and i’ll be done ready to start warming her up slowly.

I’ve still got to source some vermiculite, and a barrel, but have a few ideas.

Here’s some pics so far, and one of the job foreman checking everything is level……
