I though I would share with all of you this amazing oven, it holds 100 pieces 1kg each of bread! It is located southern of Italy specifically in Calabria isola Capo Rizzuto (Summer touristic place)
They will make an hole on the dome toward the house to use as entry point!
If I have a chance when I go there I take more pictures. Ciao Carlo

That is quite amazing. But where's the Harbor Freight tile saw to taper all the bricks?

Holy cow, how long does that take to heat up?

Carlo,

They will make an hole on the dome toward the house to use as entry point!

And to get the mason out!

Maybe thats the way we should do it. Cut the opening with a 9" grinder after finishing the dome?

one heck of a bee hive - did you know that italy used to be a great forest of trees? Wonder what happened.

I guess it's easier to build such a big oven compared to small one - they don't need to care about their position and support for the body hanging over the dome (it was most difficult for me)
they just stand straight all the time
