I like he igloo look. What type of material is your last layer?

Or can you give us how it's layerd??

Layer 1. Firebrick

Layer 2. Looks like mineral wool held down by chicken wire

Layer 3. ????

Thanks for the comments.

Layer 1  firebrick

Layer 2 ceramic fire blanket

Layer 3 chicken wire

Layer 4 50mm of vermiculite mixed with 'fondo' (refractory cement from france)

Layer 5 basic sand cement mix

Layer 6 render bag mix

Layer 7 emer-clad (nice stretchy waterproof cladding paint to keep the rain out)

Finally many great nights with family and friends, drinking beer and eating fantastic wood-fired pizza and bread.

I really like your oven. Very nice job. Im just starting the construction of the oven myself and Im liking your igloo so much I may got that route instead of the gabled house. Thank you very much for sharing
