| Some of you may recall I had a pizza oven built by a company who didn't know what they were doing when it comes to ovens and a manufacturer who kept making excuses for the smoke problem and never even addressed the lack of insulation claiming it wasn't necessary. I decided to leave it alone as a pretty paper weight as it looks nice where it is and will be building a new Pompeii 42" myself in another area of the yard. I plan on maybe starting the foundation this week. If anyone has any suggestions or important hints along the way I am very willing to listen. I have learned a ton already reading this forum for the last 2 months. Last edited by NYC; 08-12-2011 at 10:42 AM. |

| Its sad that the company didnt want to address the problem but good that you will finally get an oven that works.

| Well, karma will work it's ways. I spent $50K on an outdoor kitchen of which about $8K was for a would be oven that turned into a pretty paperweight. I will start from scratch and do it myself so I know it will work fine. |

| You will enjoy building it yourself. The help given here is first class. I am a few months into my build and it's been very satisfying as long as you have the patience. Good Luck! Leigh |

| Is it not possible to knock out the one you have built ? why build elsewhere if you have a 50k outdoor kitchen setup already? seems counterintuative to me? |

| Hi NYC, Excuse the pun but you could use the old oven as a smoker!!! Or you could put a truck load of insulation on it and a lockable insulated door and use it as a wine cellar. It seems a petty not to be able to use it for something. Good luck with your build if there are any questions you need answers for just ask.

| Good Luck on your new build, I grew up in NYC and now live in Ct. You are welcome to come up anytime to check out my build. It may not be the prettiest oven but I have followed the build plans and it should work well! Good Luck! John
