Restaurant Brick Oven Build- Part One

The alcove
bottom blocks
I've just begun building a brick oven for a campground restaurant in Naples, Maine.  The building was intentionally designed to house the oven at one end.

Stacked blocks with center support


Every other core filled and rebar inserted


Forms and support for slab pour

Rebar placed

Wire mesh



The photos here show the first steps.  When the series showing this build is done, the set of progress photos will go on the 'Featured Project' button on my website.

It all starts with lots of heavy materials: Concrete block, concrete, more concrete, rebar, and then some more concrete.  Fortunately, it's been great early Spring weather in New England.
