Final Coat

So here is the final coat on the oven.  It went from looking like a beaver dam to an igloo.  A lot cleaner and this should help with insulation and thermal mass.  Of course it started raining last night, so it should cure well.  The last layer is about two inches thick, 8 parts sand, three clay and 1/2 part Portland cement.

We will begin fires tomorrow, Fenders will go on and we should be up and running soon.
