Thanks for the vid! I'm in the middle of my dome oven and am making a homebrew of refractory mortar. It's a pain! lol

My Indispensible Tool is working perfectly and I plan on using the exercise ball trick for the top.

Thank you much for sharing this. I am in the middle of building my Brick Oven right now and am following your instruction, helps a lot.

SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is taking the build to another level. Brilliant work and explanation. Can't stop saying flange in a new York accent.

Respect veri gud.

wow!

I thank you for this great work. My question; why did you set the floor bricks on the fire clay instead of using the heat stop 50 mortar? Thanks.

At the academy awards they should have a category for "Best Documentary for Wood Fired Oven Construction" . You'd be the winner.

complimenti energysmartNH un lavoro da chirurgo, sei stato bravissimo!!!! have you seen a pompeian oven?

Thanks for the post. Planning on building one myself. How many inch (L) between the 22" and the 31"?

Thanks for the great video's are you still going to post parts 3 and 4?

Thanks! We just posted part 3 and will post 4 soon. Will also be posting videos on some of the really delicious foods we've cooked in the oven.

I'm in Maine and looking forward to doing an oven this year would you recommend 2" high density insulating foam under the foundation? Due to the frost up or way for 5 months or so?

very nice really i wish i could do it

bravo

very nice. I am building one myself. and thinking about using cast able refractory cement to cast the dome. but if I am this far in, shell i use firebricks? and how many do I need?

I'm wondering the same thing. I'd love to build a similar size Oven at my house and was wondering how many bricks did you use (approximately). Thanks

exercise ball..... genius!

Curious as why you finished with staneless steel pipe and not all masonry.But all in all pretty slick using the finger .I have built a few domes in my day out of brick on blast furnaces.Much bigger scale but same principle.Always interesting.If you everbuild another when you cut your brick .Cut the angles 2 ways to eliminate the wedge pice you use to shim.We call those side arch end wedges.The side arch turns the radious and the wedge closes the dome...

Hi, very nice job!!! I would like to ask you what is the material of the refractory brick for high temperatures? thanks!

When building a large blast furnace, an arch brick, engineered, custom is cost effective. For a small pizza dome, there are engineering specs and CAD programs that can generate the arch bricks for a dome of any size. It would have been far more expensive and in the end not much stronger. I think medium duty arch bricks formed to size are more than 2x as expensive than straights. The inside of the dome has very little mortar exposed to compromise.

Thanks so much for these great videos. I want to make sure that I am using the correct fire brick for my oven. What is the alumina content of a medium duty fire brick?

I don't know th content...I just know its a class 2 brick.

Great job on the video! How did you cut the wedges you placed between the bricks?

Im at the point of building my dome. I first tried a clay dome but wasn't confident with its strength so I pulled it apart and have my fire bricks ready. Indispensable tool needs to be built and my sore back needs to have a rest, but then its "go time"! I love the comment from Frank hahah, I'm sure his opinion of having a wife would be "the most expensive and elaborate way to have sex I can think of"! Ill just keep using my hands! hahaha! Explaining a pizza oven to people like that....... is wasted time! Great video and tutorial!

Hi what size exercise ball did you need. I bought one for the oven I am constructing 65mm it seems too small. Oven 24” to dome.

do you have any word/PDF plans for this excellent pompeii dome...? Really impressed!

Me gustaría que su video tuviera subtítulos en español, es muy interesante

wow awesome video.

Masonry is very heavy and labor intensive...and overall just a little less expensive if you do not count your labor. It would have also required a more involved substructure design. If you count your labor, it is more expensive. The pipe went up in about 10 minutes. The roof collar and above -the-roof enclosure took about a three hours.

Is the aluminum pivot part a chain link fence accessory?

Would love to view #3 and #4

I live in nh where did you buy your bricks?

Where do you buy a radius tool"? ONLINE prefered?

How much were the fire bricks? And where did you buy them?

Great series! I found a great supplier of refractory products. Its Smart Ceramics in Woburn Ma. They are great people and easy to deal with. I have done business with them in the past.

How many bricks did you use for this oven.

What a great informative video. It pretty much lays out everything you need to do to build an oven from scratch. I was going down this route to start with. But as I have a very limited amount of talent and tools for anything DIY is concerned I went down a the kit version route. I am now at the same stage in this video and so far everting is going well. You can see the build so far on my channel if you’re interested. Thanks for sharing.

How much did the materials cost?

hey buddy how did you make the jig? What type of joint is that in the centre?

@energysmartNH

I used an old tripod ball joint. I fixed the ball joint to two pieces of 1" x 2" wood that were made into a x shape that would lie flat on the pizza floor as shown in the picture at 5:45 in the video. The ball joint I had was perfect because it had an extension that allowed me to join it to a 2"x2" piece of wood that would extend out for the radius.

Do I have to worry about airpockets in the morter? Will they expand and blow out?

all mortar will have some air in it...you do not have to worry...the mortar is not air tight and will not trap the air.

Thank you for this tutorial. Can I use low duty firebricks for this project?They are the best I can get in my country :(

@blermsb

you can use it but if you're trying to build an oven that will last an eternity you probably shouldnt since low duty will brake down since you will be running 800-1000 degrees

How much did this project cost to build?

Well detailed, but far well over structured.

This is like real life how-to-build minecraft videos

That's a nice oven but damn expensive and time consuming. Kinda like restoring a 57' Chevy convertible. Great project for rich retired guys...

Go to woodprix website if you want to learn how to build it yourself.

Why not use metric? Pompeii is located in Italy, and Italy uses metric.

+Bill Smith The only way to accurately measure curves and arches is to facilitate Planck units. Even using a simple abacus or slide rule, A tradesman can mark perfect primary cuts and secondary cuts that will match every time. The old school way is the better way when creating perfect masonry.

ian godfrey please ignore this. Unnecessary complaint'

I have an oven using normal clay bricks, they don't break down - it's over 10 years now. If you use a low quality firebrick it will hold up 100% There is no need to advise viewers to spend the money on the kiln rated bricks, you will never reach the temps that break it down by normal home use. Stop spreading this narrative that only the best should be used. Yes, it makes for a great oven, but you don't need it at all. It's like fitting racing brakes on your grandma's car she only use to go shopping and church.

And then you mention portland cement breaking down under heat, when just about every other site and specialist shop use PORTLAND CEMENT with Perlite / Vermiculite mixes to build their domes. Where do you even get your info? Just stick to the build mate, your advice about materials are way off base.

That's fantastic, but I live in a country where we can't make such choices, we use what we can find locally e.g. Portland cement, in other words, according to your video, I just have to forget such a project...
