| I finished the dome several months ago, but another project has taken priority over finishing the oven. (My wife somehow thinks a working roof is more pressing than a great pizza oven. Go figure!) At any rate, I chose to cantilever the landing for
But then, I have not finished it yet...so I hope I am not mistaken! Anyone else? Michael aka PizzaMan |

| James It has been a while since I have dealt with "oven" terminology so here is how I am interpreting the use of landing. From the front of the structure going in towards the hearth one has: the landing, tunnel, and then oven opening to the hearth? I do not see much of an advantage to having a cantilivered landing except from an aesthetic viewpoint. It was more important to me to optimize the depth of the landing (deeper means more counter space) versus the overall distance to the the oven opening. The concern for the latter was having a reasonable chance of placing wood into the oven given the length of my reach without having to use some sort of tool. I did end up overhanging the "bull nose" bricks used for the landing (and its extension around the gable senclosure structure that was meant as counter space ) about 3 inches for aesthetic reasons.
