hi

im thinking about building my own stone pizza oven here. has anyone ever done that and can give me advice on where to buy material, like the right bricks and cement? also, is there any place where i can buy decent firewood?

thanks!

For Bricks...check out this thread on Thai Visa

Firewood, don't know.

You probably have plans already.  If not, I have this book and if you send me a message, I'll loan it out.

Thinking of doing the same myself, although doing it in cob with a firebrick oven floor.

Apparently there's a place on the Hang Dong road that sells firebricks, and Siam Cement or something in Lampang/Lamphun...!

I've seen bundles of wood at Muang Mai market. Not sure of the price though.

Surely it would be possible to fire it with coal, no? 50B for a big bag of coal down the market.

Luther, I might be interested in borrowing your book to get it copied, if you don't mind!

cheers

I would like to build one too

maybe we could all get together and help each other?

There's some great stuff on youtube about that very subject...well worth a look...good luck.

BUCKLT :jap:

Stop by either of the Duke's restaurants and see how David built his, it's not rocket science and the materials are readily available.

Check out this guy's site: http://www.traditionaloven.com/

Apprently, he'll even send you a CD with plans and photos for $6.50AUS.

theres tons of material online on how to build it, but no guide on where to buy the materials in chiang mai ;-)

david ill write you a pm with contact info

I'm thinking I will try to build one in October or November. Any progress?

Mostly in October is still rainning, I think better to do it in Noverber.

Fire wood in Chiang Mai you can find it also in Muang Mai Market or in local shops in city such as near Chiang Mai gate and if you need it a lot, there is a supplier in Lampang and they will delivery to you for free, I think the price is 1,200 baht per ton ( not sure if it is update price).

There are many blick factories in Chiang Mai where you find fire blick, in Hang dong have more such as blick Sivilai, Paradorn blick,...
