You're trying to reinvent the wheel and people are telling you it should be round so it actually works and you're refusing to listen.
It's an oven, something that has existed for thousands of years at this point, the technology is mature and well understood at this point, if people are telling you you're wasting your time using things that will blow up in your face maybe you should have the maturity to just listen for a second.
I'm not refusing to listen, and I'm not trying to reinvent the wheel. I'm talking to a dude in this thread about his mods to an oven. I've read about concrete pavers instead of blue stone. It's an interesting home, diy project I'm hoping to have work a handful of times. I'm not trying to abandon my kitchen and feed my family primarily from this. It's a weekend project, not a life-or-death endeavor. The cost of a real brick oven is more than we're willing, or able, to spend for something that will get used maybe 2 or 3 times a year.
And at the end of the day, I'm outside having fun moving rocks around with my kids.
