[@beandip504]

I’ve had this thought of building my own pizza oven for years. This video woke me up from that dream lol. Insanely good craftsmanship and the Timelapse really puts it into perspective.

[@chewy_gonzo]

Do it, build yourself an oven it's incredibly rewarding

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thanks 🙏🏼

[@samiraslan9735]

I have watched tons of pizza ovens videos but this is one of the best I have ever seen, really good job.
Any estimation on how many days the pizza oven took to complete?

[@chewy_gonzo]

thank you very much i appreciate it. i honestly don't know how long it took as it was built in several stages and in lockdown and only when materials were available. I would simply be guessing with any answer.

[@johnnyrico707]

Wow. Absolutely amazing

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[@baturrez7485]

La pizza más cara del mundo.

[@jamesdekear8280]

If in south Jersey area .. I’d pay big bucks to hire you :). Amazing craftsmanship and thanks for sharing

[@chewy_gonzo]

Cheers dude, appreciate the kind words

[@jessezepeda3990]

Very nice work! One of the nicest builds I've seen. Would you mind sharing your dimensions and plans for your pizza oven build?

[@chewy_gonzo]

thank you. The internal diameter is 90cm but no plans exist for the build.

[@harvpapi4206]

I’ve yet to see someone not put some sort of tile or stone finish on the dome. Looks awesome painted black like that, who knew.

[@ConcreteLand]

Really nice job. Loved the high speed video. Any idea how many fire bricks you used?
If you haven’t tried poolish pizza dough you really should. It’s a game changer.

[@chewy_gonzo]

yes i have made many using poolish. unsure on how many bricks were used.

[@maxtyrie]

Great video! I’m in the UK and planning a similar build myself, most videos I’ve watched are outside the UK so am struggling to find suppliers for the firebricks etc. Could you share some links for where you bought your supplies (firebricks, insulation, high temp mortar etc) thanks 🙏🏼

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thank you. Vitcas is where to get most supplies or local builders merchants will often order in order in specific bricks etc.

[@sofieneelphil4407]

May allah bless what he gave you even more bro 👍🙋‍♂️ i love the pizza but i think you need to look for some kind of special pizza stone the one that can't be cleaned once it's used and then try putting it in your oven or try to get same size as your oven 👍 also try using corn flour when stretching the pizza it gives more taste than regular flour.

[@vincemahesan5374]

All you need is a beer....

[@chewy_gonzo]

Haha very true

[@daviddeery9649]

Are you a mason? Some of that stone work just looked too natural to be a first timer. Amazing job. I'm planning a similar build wondering if you have a breakdown of costs? Love the tile work as well.

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thanks for the kind words dude. I'm honestly not a builder or a mason of any kind. I'm just an obsessive and did tonnes of research before building. As for the cost of the build that's hard to tell as lots of the materials were reclaimed. I genuinely don't have a cost breakdown but it isn't cheap. the oven alone is probably close to £3000, not including the base or any of the rest of the kitchen. if you can do it though i highly recommend and the build process is really fun and rewarding. Do it!

[@philmtx3fr]

Wonderful construction ... But what a job !!! I bougjt m'y ooni gaz oven in 10 minutes

[@philmtx3fr]

Not as beautiful of course ... But for pizza not sure it s not better and far easier to cook for sure :)

[@chewy_gonzo]

Each to their own. Ooni is good 👍🏼

[@dhaval4570]

Impeccable work man, can I know a few things?
What's the bottom most layer made up of, the white stuff ?
What are the bricks used in making the dome called ? They look different then regular red bricks
What insualtion did you use to cover the dome?
What is the tool that is used in the center to allign the bricks while creating a dome shape called
Would be great to get a reply, planning to make one for myself
:)
:)

[@jonm3088]

Nice work! Do you have plans for the oven that you can share?

[@chewy_gonzo]

sadly the plans only exist in my head

[@outdoorkitchenguy]

Thank you for sharing, it is a great build. I like the way how you insulate the floor. If you share the regular version of the video at a slower pace I would be very happy. Just hit the subscribe button already :).

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thanks 😊

[@Tom-ie3vn]

This is a great video and a great build! I was wondering where did you get your fire bricks from and what dimensions were they? Particularly the ones you used for the dome. The ones I have seen online seem a lot smaller than one ones you used, thanks!

[@chewy_gonzo]

Got them through my local building merchant

[@zayR6]

Really cool oven, the pizza at the end looked perfect. How is the heat retention ? I am thinking of building one my self

[@chewy_gonzo]

Excellent heat retention

[@dhaval4570]

Hey what the % of alumina content in those fire bricks ? And whats the bottom most white layer you placed?

[@abdelab2426]

great oven! what is inside size ?

[@chewy_gonzo]

90cm internal diameter

[@Orlando_63s]

How many days did you take to make this wood fire? 🤝🏼🇧🇷

[@chewy_gonzo]

i honestly don't know because i built it in stages through lockdown

[@LinoPR-ds2ke]

Wow beautiful work, how long did the project take you to finish from start to finish ?

[@chewy_gonzo]

Hard to say. I built it in stages over about 6months I guess

[@hansheintz7768]

Hi, nice video. what are the measurements of yor oven? Especially the fireplace. Greetings from germany

[@chewy_gonzo]

Thanks 🙏🏼

[@mariusflorin2886]

Hello can You send me dimensions, and how meny brics used?

[@yeb3289]

Great video! What is the size of the concrete slab?

[@chewy_gonzo]

155cm by 174cm

[@josepserramari5489]

what are the dimensions of the oven?

[@goaro2007]

Do you think 90 inside is big or just the right side ?

[@chewy_gonzo]

I think it’s a good size

[@IroNrB]

What is the name of that tool you used to align the blocks in a perfect circle?

[@chewy_gonzo]

It’s a trammel tool but I built my own as they’re hard to get

[@stevekarnes3071]

Curious, would you be willing to share the entire project video in normal speed? In fact, if i were you I’d post this in its entirety, separately into Part 1, Part 2, etc.

[@alltha]

How many fire bricks did it take

[@chewy_gonzo]

I’m genuinely not sure
