I want a cement or stone roof. Oven will be 42" corner.

CAD Plans are here:

THANK YOU! well i think i will go with stainless. this clay is a pain in my %@# to find......

well my question is ? i have a 40" oven. if i got a 12" X 4 1/2" Flue made for the full size of the vent opening, will that be too big? Will it draw u think..... i had a 6" round pipe before and some some got out but i am wondering if gettin a fabricated one made up for the size of the whole vent opening, will it cause it not to draw if too big ? What do ya'll think ? thanks alot God Bless ]]> Newbie Forum interguglielmi http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/f2/can-flue-too-big-8806.html http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/f2/heads-up-hf-tile-saw-sale-8798.html Thu, 12 Nov 2009 20:07:06 GMT Just a quick head's up to anyone at the tile-saw purchasing stage of their project, the HF tile saw is currently on sale for $230.

I am looking at maybe buying a modular wfo rather then building one from scratch. I have a question about these modular ovens or is it 2 questions LOL.

Okay from what I have seen of these prefab modular ovens they are relatively thin and from my understanding of thermal mass that is the reason these ovens have such quick heat up times. First question is. is this assumptions correct ?

If the answer is yes then read on to my next question otherwise ignore the ramblings of a senile man.

from what I understand of the vaulted ovens is that they retain heat for days due to the thickness of the walls which makes sence to me. So here is my question.

What is stopping me from buying a modular ovenkit and increasing the therman mass by adding refractory cement to the outside before the insulation layer to increase the thickness of the oven and also hopefully the thermal mass. Kind of like what they do on top of the scotts oven after the bricks are layed they add I thnink from memory 4 inches of cladding to increase its thermal mass. Is there a structural reason why this couldnt be done on the igloos?

Hope you guys understand what I am asking. LOL not to sure if I asked it right.

thanks

The stainless one i used didn't hold up. i just need to find a place that reasonably priced ya know.....

The dimensions are 12 feet x 16 feet, and it will have large windows. The question is can I build a 36" pizza oven inside, or will the generated heat be too much for such a small building? I'm hoping the thick insulation on the oven will keep it from producing too much heat. ]]> Newbie Forum mellowwhiteman http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/f2/pizza-oven-indoors-8656.html http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/f2/36-42-oven-8650.html Mon, 02 Nov 2009 06:46:31 GMT Hi everyone. First time poster, but have trawled through many of the threads and have gained invaluable tips and advice.
My question is regarding oven size, and specifically the difference in time required to fire up the different sizes. I'm tossing up between the 36" and 42" dome ovens. I have room for the larger one and it is my preference, however my only reservation is if there is a much longer time required to fire up the larger oven to the appropriate temp. I would appreciate any comments on this aspect of wood fired ovens. ]]> Newbie Forum Steve D. http://www.fornobravo.com/forum/f2/36-42-oven-8650.html
