Thanks. It's really moving along now; I am really feeling the need to get it done.

Looking good! I think you should go higher on the chimney. You should be 2 feet above any structure within 10 feet for code.

I'm feeling the same way... I need to double-check the measurements, but I think that one more tile will put me at the right height.

It certainly cant hurt to put another tile on,, And It should improve your draw as well,, go with it, better to do it now and feel better about it than being unhappy later....

Cheers
Mark

Thanks for all the compliments! It makes me feel like I'm on the right track to hear encouragement from people like yourselves who have been here and know the uncertainty... "am I really doing this right?"

I was leaning toward a version of a gabled house, but now I'm not so sure. There's an example on the fb design style page here from San Gimignano that is giving me inspiration, and I'm wondering now if I just want to copy it even more closely and do a modified igloo.

Then again, I recently saw a couple of really nice brick enclosures that caught my eye (and my wife's as well)...

The brick enclosures are at the High Hand nursery in Loomis, CA between Sacramento and Auburn, in the Sierra Foothills. Definitely a fun place to go to be inspired about landscaping.

Along the lines of the San Gimignano oven was this one from Pennsylvania; A combination of the two, with a vertically-sided, conically-topped igloo and a tall, curvy chimney chase, might be just the ticket.

I like the brick work on your base, if you enclose your oven with bricks I think it will look really nice.
