The Base


For the base I followed my friend JD's design and used concrete block. They are joined together with construction adhesive (it's stronger than you think), this way if I ever have to remove the oven it will be easier. The column of bricks in the center will support the four 2' x 2' slabs that will form the surface for the hearth. This photo shows the first row of bricks glued to the slab, with bricks used for weight to achieve a good bond.
