Default Re: Mobile Oven for Pizzabistro

We'll just call you Master Acoma....

I'd put the first course of bricks on top of the hearth. And that hearth is essentially the foundation of a modular oven so it needs to be sound.

This question comes up a lot and maybe we should work on a viable design. I have been thinking about how to do this myself. There are a number of commerical ventures that have a portable oven, why not one at home?

You'd need a trailer and/or separate stand....that allows it to be moved. Think about earthquake engineering....the oven unit "floats"

It's the weight of the oven and potential cracking that is the challenge in my mind.

What about finding a firebrick company that would make a series of cast blocks? pre-cracked?
