| Re: Cooking floor question. Quote:
Three owners of shorter ovens said they wished their hearth was higher.... I've noticed another half dozen here and there who wanted their ovens higher also, never noticed anyone saying they wanted the oven lower (I built higher).....So its a function of what you want, sometimes influenced by the location of the oven and the social setting you want to create. You can adapt to most any height

| Re: Cooking floor question. Thanks. I'm going to go for 50" My neighbors probably think i'm nuts standing in the back yard with a broom as a peel and a tape measure. I just finished my first course of field stone on my hearth, that was interesting. Thanks for all the great info. Fenton |
