| I think the modern repro chimney pots are made from the same refractory clay as the flue tiles. I love the old pots, though. Maybe you could take the chimney up a couple of more courses to get the flue gasses cooled off...

| Really excellent build! I love the way it fits into the existing structure. You SHOULD try to get your chimney at least two feet above anything withing 10 feet of it, so I like dmun's idea of building it up a few courses. I don't know about the UK, but that is code in the US. Again, it is a great looking oven, thanks for sharing! Drake PS, better get a metal hose reel! That plastic thing looks out of place with all that beautiful old stone!

| Beautiful oven,,, Have you considered painting the inside top of the chimney with some kind of ceramic kiln coating, Not sure, but it might help reflect some of the heat off of it... Good Luck and Enjoy,, Mark

| What a fantastic oven and so good to see another one being built in the UK. I am just about to start construction of the dome and am trying to decide whether to use angle iron to support the dome entrance and have a stand-alone vent dome or to have an arched entry like yours. Am I correct in assuming that your vent arch is built in firebrick? |

| Hi There, I am in UK too and just been scared off putting a pot on top of my oven. See this US site. Chimney Pots from ChimneyPot.com-Home Page It seems to suggests that the temp should not be a problem. Can you tell us more about the type of pot you used? Could it have been a repro maybe? |

| Mikey, My chimney liner was pretty industrial strength, seemingly, but the heat did crack it. I think the pot in the photos appears to be a little higher up, and therefore may be a bit cooler up there. ( gasses having a chance to expande and even out in space) Those pots may be designed to take the heat better since they are designed to extend above the chimney. Lars.
