I love fire......check out my pizza hut and pond!
Well as you all know I have a strange relationship with fire.
(see link if you dont know what im on about)
https://passionford.com/forum/genera...ire-today.html
Today ive been doing some more work on our pizza hut, as ive run out of parts to re-rebuild the rs1600i.
Here is what we started with a few weeks back
The original location of the pond soon to be pizza hut
The new pond
Note chicken wire to stop our chickens riping up the grass seed
The pizza oven
Trees removed and burned
Wall and patio in
Concrete base in and oak beams in
The oven
Former/mould for oven (paper mache like been at school again)
Mould for brick arch
Oak Roof on
Covered in Cedar shingles
Fire her up
Today i ran out of parts to carry on with the RSi so tiled the floor this afternoon.
I just love oak, check out the detail in the octagon roof
And the cedar shingles
Now just need to build the bench seats and a table. Thinking marble table with a hot plate in the middle to cook steaks or keep stuff warm?
Going to put roller shutters made of canvas on the open top parts so we can sit in there in the winter and stay warm from the fire..............
Just make sure the Rsi is not parked near
(those of you who know of me will understand
)
Hope you liked it, i cant wait to make my first pizza!
Barrel of beer will be stored under the oven, will make a Ł1 pot. so every pint I put a pound in.= constant flow of beer!

They are a standard brick, but have used "old essex" reclaims here so they are all slightly different sizes, if you look close you can see they sit a bit proud rather than flush.
Came from uk electrical in Braintree. about Ł30 each I seem to remember?
Where do I start.........

Not expensive at all.
In fact my brother in law is an electrictian and hes just sources some new LED lights which are the same size as the normal GU10 halogens and have a much better light spread than the older LED's from the past few years.
Its defo possible tho mate.
Ill whiz a lamp apart tommrow and take some pics for you so you can see the internals.

They will take Led. you just need to swap the holder for a GU10.

Right this mornings efforts.
Grouted
MintFRST heres the light
As you can see you just need to replace it with a GU10 holder
We have had a smoke issue so ill be making some doors today
As well as the center table with hot plate for steaks and stuff, may be even fried breakfasts
My sisters old barby
Canabilsm commences
One of thses barrels will become out bbq that sits in the oven
Anyone want some Rs1600i parts, used but never raced,rolled or rallied
Sexy new diamond disk
Vid
Weld it back together
Chop up the gas pipe
weld
Front
Et voila, this will be sunk in the middle of the table
Spare burners will go in oven so we can do a roast dinner
T and G, have put a router bevel in and painted it in POSH farrel and ball duck egg blue
Ill be back................

Cheers guys, it just started as a bit of fun. 9 out of 10 bbqs end up rain or stong wind as we are so exposed up here.
So i came up with the idea of building a gazebo style structure with heat. and canvas sides which we can rool down to have total weather protection, the idea being we can use it all year round, as there plenty of heat from the fire!
Well here what todays events lead to.
After my post this morning on the bbq reincorination into a hot plate, i went to get some more wood
This is the new BBQ, the idea being it can sit in the pizza oven, smoke goes up the chimney, everyones happy!
My best mate has one of thses and its honestly the best bbq ive ever cooked on............
Take one of these and drink the contents
simple but very effective!!!
Right doors.
template
copper sheet
steel
weld
paino hindge
Cut and shape copper
This is the front, to be lined with oak maybe tommrow?
and the back which takes the heat (note hindges for pizza flap)
fitted
Front (ugly as hell but will look the nuts when covered in oak
)
The center table, its 3/4 marine grade (shutter) ply. The finished top will be marble, hope to have that made up in the week
Establishing height with an old table
the new pedastal
With hot plate
Will return, cant wait to get this baby fired up and cooking!
