    I love your designs and I will soon be ordering a CD so that I can start building this spring or early summer.

      Dear Richard and Rado,
      What a nice looking oven. I’d love to build one but building regulations at the community where I live and the amount of space I have don’t allow me the larger structures I saw on your website. This one however looks the perfect size for me. May I know the width, depth and height dimensions?

      Also, I read in other parts of this site that thickness and mass is crucial to long roasting and baking times. May I know how long this retains sufficient heat for roasting after the flame and embers have been removed? Will it retain enough heat to roast say, a leg of lamb?

      Hope to get your valuable advice.

      Thanks!

  2. Rado I am so anxious to receive this CD so that I can start building. I have never done bricklaying but I am reading a lot about it. It definitely a great experience. I will keep in touch as the work starts and as it goes along. Thank Bart.

    I’m building one at the moment and wondered what’s the best material to have as my hearth, is there any marble or granit or stone you rather wouldn’t use?
