 Re: 48" oven about to start, need advice about buttressing
Kulas
I might suggest that instead of buttressing as you mention....eliminate the soldier course and lay the equivalent number of courses of lets say 6" long as opposed to the 4.5"...could stand them on edge for 2 courses to get to 9"...or something else...even could miter the last one to "spring the courses for the dome
Best
