This has been a bit of a slow project due to lack of time and other things but I'm building an outdoor pizza oven (brick oven or cob oven , different people call them different things) at the beach house . The brick base is 1.5m (59 inches) by 1.6m (63 inches) and the oven itself has an internal radius of 1.3m (51 inches) . The dome will be .65m (26 inches) high in the middle and the arched door is .54 m (21 inches) wide by .44m (17 inches)high at it's greatest and the base slab it sits on is .2m (8 inches) thick high strength reinforced concrete (I'm building this sucker to last) . I've scaled the plans up to suit my own needs as it will be a party oven and I wanted to be able to fit enough food (mixture of pizza's , turkish Pide's , breads and roast meats) into it for 40 or more people .
I started it a couple of months ago but finally getting time to work on it now and need to get it finished (and learn how to use it ) by the middle of next month for the little dude's 3rd birthday .
Why is everything you build a toy for kids , he just loved the bare slab for the noise it made with the truck .
"Can I play in the fort dad ???"
4" reinforced slab on top of brick piers with void filled with sand for insulation .
Layer of bricks laid on their side without any mortar between them for heat soak .
