So you built your pizza oven in June 2005. It’s May 2008, almost 3 years later. Are you still making pizza with it? I think it’s cool that you made your own. I would love to have an outside oven, but would be afraid to make my own. Good for you! Hope you are still enjoying your pizza oven and the pizza you make in it. Have you tried to make breads?

I agree with Paul.
Its clear that those who complain have never built a rough prototype of anything. For an easy to build full-size bake oven try http://www.traditionaloven.com
There are pizza recipes too…

Hey you guy’s did well on this project. To the people that are saying that it’s a pile of crap and that their 12 year old daughter can do better WELL WHERE ARE THE PICTURES????

I love it when people think they are smarter than others and then they show their intelligence nationally for all to see. For all of you dumb asses out there one way you can look at this is that you are not eating some damn good pizza!!!!!!!

Not to pretty but as they say FORM follows FUNCTION and if it was FUN more power to you.
I wish I had more creative people like these ‘engineers’ around me!

BTW, I work as an engineer for the largest US aircraft maker.

Man stepped out of the widerness and built the first pizza oven in a hollowed out termite mound, using hand picked grain ground between stones to produce the first pizza dough. Select herbs, lizards, bugs and whatever commeth bye maketh the toppings, cheese came milleniums later. No dought the first pizza oven was a huge hit and advanced culinary and dietary technology by quantum leaps.

We have come a long way with pizza ovens and have even added cheese as an essential ingredient. Although this DIY oven on display is a step up the ladder from a termite mound, it falls into the category of Dark Ages technology and would certanly not win any contest (unless nobody else showed up). However, I applaud the creative use of refuse to manufacture a means to a meal. Enjoy your pizzas and may your next pizza oven be a step up the evolutionary ladder.

Also he actually states that they are fire-bricks, so suck on that.
Once again, awesome work.
