Thanks for that David I knew you had to light a little fire in them to dry them out and to stop the shell from cracking.
I did not know you had to fire it about seven times.
One of the books I have says to start cooking when you have finished building.
I will heed your advice and fire it seven times. Thanks again.
fb1.jpgfb2.jpg Went overboard on the insulation. I was going to brick up the dome and fill it with perlite but I found a business that sold the fire blanket at a reasonable price so went that way instead. Packed the perlite into the corner cavities of the walls.
I did mine with a large beach ball and cement rendered over the top. You can use as much reo as you like but it will still crack unless you use pearlite in the render. You will need fire bricks in the bottom i used normal 2" clay pavers and it got so hot that the heat cracked the 4" reinforced concrete slab table top i made to build it on.
The Pizza is great that smokey flavour carn't be beaten.
dome done 1.jpg Got the final cap on the dome. Still plenty of tiling and rendering to do. Next stage is lighting the fire to completely dry out the bricks and mortar.
