Hi, new Aussie

[Vicbrickie]

Hi, I live in australia and am fairly new to the wfo world. and even newer to online forums (first post ever)! Am half way through my oven it is 1M internal diameter dome with a polished concrete bench in front and a pit to dump ash and coal / spit pit down one side.

We're dying to see your work, try posting a picture or two.

This (Posting photos), is a link to a thread explaining how to post the pictures

Hi VicBrickie!

I join you in your newness. I have been reading these forums for some time, and I too am halfway through my build (36" Pompei). I look forward to following your progress! Thanks for helping me pluck up the courage to make my very first post. Now, enough about me, lets see some photos of what you're building!

I cant see in the pic but what did you use for the under floor insulation?

[Vicbrickie]

vermiculite / cement screed only about 65mm would have liked to have had a bit more but got a bit difficult trying to keep the bench flush with oven floor height without the step in it being too extreme

65mm may be a bit thin, time will tell, are you going to put a chimney on it?
