Pizza Oven

Google Sketchup required to view the file, download it free here.

Here is an Idea I have for a Pizza Oven, I havent built it yet but I will hopefully soon, and post some pictures.

The oven is basically a vaulted kiln within a vaulted kiln.

The idea is so that any smoke will be directed back over the top of the oven and up the flue, as the smoke goes around and over the top of the oven more heat should be put back into it from the top.

There should be very little smoke if any at all that would come out of the front doorway.

The same idea could be adapted with a flat roof or with a dome.
