Outstanding job Les! Congratulations

I know I have used many ideas from your build so thanks for sharing your journey.

Time to start cooking!

I think I'm the only one that looks at Les's build and am reminded of my own inadequacies. Great work Les...we're all a little jealous.

If you built it, and it cooks, I don't think inadequacies would apply. I think you have done an outstanding job - I love your island, has a lot going on.

Breven, You are NOT the only one. I have Les's thread bookmarked and am constantly referring to it. I think that is why mine is taking so long.

Hey I had it even worse... I was building my oven dome at the same time as Les! Let me tell you it was a major embarassement every time I posted pics.

I personally think they're all a testament to how fun it can be. Depends on your idea of fun! They're also all a testament to how different approaches can all work, and work well. Local materials, check. Cheap insulators, check. Modern materials, leftover stuff, all good!

The constants, to my mind, are good insulation, no matter what kind, and dry wood. Oh, and the excellent Forno Bravo plans, of course. They're a fantastic jumping off place!
