Wood burning type for garden
Fancy giving it a bash

I want to but it’s on the long list 🙁 it’ll be the one from the bread builders book when I do get round to it…

Not a Pizza oven but been thinking about a Tandoor. Seen some ideas on t’ínternet and really fancy having a go.

I’d love to and it’s on my (extremely long) list of DIY jobs. Perhaps I’ll make time for it early spring next year although I’d probably want to lay a patio first.

Pizza oven is next on my list. Just built a tandoori oven from an old bin, and a plant pot. I’ve since added sand all around it to add extra insulation.

Still experimenting with fuel to get it really hot, but the kebabs and Naan bread are awesome

Not yet but I’ve bought a book the other week with some great guides in, plan to at some point but when that’ll be I can’t say.

I’ve got the bricks and the space and an italian father in law to provide encouragement (so Mrs Ed is on board with it) but there are other DIY jobs that need doing which are higher up the priority list…

+1 for the dustbin/flowerpot naan, tasty they are 🙂

another thing on my to do list, i’m going to build it in with a bbq and worktop for chopping stuff up on too to save arsing about with folding tables

sadly i’ve got an entire garden to level, a shed/deck/hammock area to build, and a load of paving to lay first… :-/

I have and can highly recommend it, not only pizza but meat, bread and a lot of other things get cooked too.

There some free plans here –

The site also has a forum, some great builds and recipes in there.

I have no links to the above site BTW.

only posted so I can find this thread and links again!

pizzamaking.com is the pizza resource on t’web

Brother built the tandoor bin from Jamie Oliver guide, reckons it’s really good.
Been looking at these brick oven plans but fire bricks appear to be about 3quid each so looks like a pricy job

63% dome height to door opening is the key (apparently) the best thing to build them out of are storage bricks from an ‘economy seven’ storage heaters

ive built 2 for customers and they are great, they cook a lot more than pizzas
