ovencrafters plans

I don't remember that this book has explicit plans, but you'll find the information on materials and oven design current and very pertinent.  Insulate to the best of your finances.

From the Wood-Fired Oven: New and Traditional Techniques for Cooking and Baking with Fire

Go to the Forno Bravo store (http://www.fornobravo.com/store/) and search for "pompei." There are a few resources that include a downloadable PDF and DVD. Their forums are also filled with tips and techniques regarding building a brick oven.

I just replied to your other post.  I do have the set of plans for that oven I think in the book I have.  I don't remember them being online.  I thought I had to mail in for them or something.

Yes, it has info on site selection all the way to pictures of them being built.  It has 3 size options and material lists for each.  It's 34 pages long.

As far as the concrete goes.  You will have to find fine clay powder to mix per the instructions with the portland for the oven mortar.  We couldn't find said clay so we went to Acme brick and bought this fire rock mortar that is made for chimney work.

I can't sell the plans since we still need them.  However, if you PM me your address I can mail you a copy.

One of the options in the book is 36x48.  I am copying the book right now.  it is just a spiral bound deal.  I will take it to the post office this afternoon when I go to get my kids.  I will let you know when the post office lady thinks you should get it!

My husband and I started last fall but it has rained almost non stop here in Texas this winter and spring, so progress has been slow.  We had one built when we lived in Houston.  There is a thread about it here

http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/11410/project-begins

When I did the one in Houston there was a man Climbhi on here who had built one as well.  He did a write up about his here

http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/10694/building-small-scottstyle-brick-oven

And his photo log is still up on flickr here

https://www.flickr.com/photos/climbhipa/sets/72157613634415857/

Between all this Kyle and I have limped through this one ourselves and it has not been bad.  If I get some time this weekend I will do a write up about it and post some pictures of how it has progressed.  But between the book The Bread Builders, the plan book and those links we are getting along.  Let me know where this takes you and if I can do anything else to help!

We had our first oven built for us.  We had little kids and a starting business at the time.  We have since moved to the country and bought our forever farm and are taking the plunge but this time on our own.

I am excited for you!  I put the plans in the mail this afternoon but am worried I shipped them on the pony express.  After I paid I asked if there was any tracking info and the lady said no and that it would take 2-3 weeks to get to you.  I was like EEK!  So I will copy it again and go back and see if there is a faster way cause that is crazy!

Well enjoy your trip and hopefully they will be there when you return.  The postage was only $5 so don't worry about it at all.  I am glad that I was able to help you out on your journey to a wood fire oven.  I am so excited about ours.  It has been a rewarding project even though it has taken many hours of standing around going how do we do this!  There are so many possibilities for the facade that it gets pretty crazy.  We have spent a lot of time rearranging bricks!

Its a bit late in the day perhaps to add to this thread for 2015, but my brother in law built a brick bread oven from Tom Jaine's book, and it works a treat. You would have to adapt the materials to N American specifications, but that shouldn't be too difficult to sort out.  And after the bread has come out of the oven then put in the pork roast and the potatoes etc!  Or even a turkey!

Hi Jani,

 It seems we were all sad to see these plans unavailable from Ovencrafters. I checked yesterday to no avail which lead me here. I would be very grateful for the chance to have a look at those plans if it's not too much of an inconvenience for you. I realize there are many of us, so I understand if not. Thanks Jani, and best of luck in your baking endeavors!

Sincerely,

Chris

I too am looking for someone kind enough to mail me copies of plans- I've had The Bread Builders for a couple of years now and am disappointed to be unable to buy Alan Scott plans any longer. I am happy to pay for copies and/mailing expense (I live in Melbourne, Australia). Please let me know if you can help!

Hi Jani,

Best wishes from Victoria, Australia

Giles.

Could you be so kind and email me the link please? My email is vadim.mugerman@gmail.com

Kind regards,

Vadim

Ok, for some reason I am only getting emails for replies to one comment and not this whole post.  So if I have not sent you the link I am sorry.  If I send you the link more than once also sorry.  I need an email address to sen you the link.  You can PM it or put it here.  And if I missed you please contact me!  Sorry!!!

Hello oven builder friends,

I'm letting a lot of the members here know about our company, The Bread Stone Ovens so you may take a look at our DIY kits. Our small business offers diy kits to make the building process easier with several floor options to choose from.

If you'd like to see what we have, and learn about us a bit more you may find something that is in line with your needs.  We have kits, or just oven building materials for your build. Below is a link if you have a chance to check it out!

Thanks

nick Scott is still building his fathers ovens and is selling his plans through Facebook and Instagram any file sharing of his plans is copyright infringement

I have been searching for the Alan Scott OvenCrafters plans. I want the 32 x 36 or maybe even a smaller size.  Has anyone here built a smaller size?  In The Bread Builders there is information about building a 32 x 36.  I've seen people are building this one and many talk about building a bigger one.  Is a smaller size available? Is smaller size practical? I would love some feedback from anyone who has experience or knowledge on this.

Thank you

Brian

Hey Janij,

Good day! We are planning on constructing our own brick oven (just for home use). I used to be a member of the brickoven yahoogroup and tried searching for the plans there but to no avail. Thank you very much for finding this site. I hope it won't be much if I could ask for a copy of the same oven plans. Please send it via my email erleen_16@yahoo.com. Thanks and greatly appreciate all the effort :) 

Janij - or anyone with a dropbox link to the plans

I just stumbled across this forum. I am in the process helping my father building an oven and we are in need a good plan for the oven.

Is there anyone that can help us and share a link?

My email is auroralea@hotmail.com

I hope we can get some help in this forum

Thank you very much in advance

All best, Aurora 

Curious if anyone has received  response via this thread?  I have not and would like to know if there is something I am missing?  I am also searching other places trying to find info for my oven..  If I find anything I will report back here.

I am also hoping to find a copy of the plans. I would also be willing to set up a place to host them and respond to requests for them. If anyone has received a copy of them and wouldn't mind passing them on, I would appreciate it.

If there are objections from the people who run ovencrafters I would stop, but I would hate to see these plans disappear or become inaccessible. 

Ben

My email address is stickyvalentine@gmail.com.

Good day fellow Artisans, 

I have 2 sets on commercial oven plans from Ovencrafters available. 

I have built one of each for my bakery. These ovens are workhorses and produce the best baked goods i have ever encountered. 

The first is a hearth size of 5 x 7 foot and a footprint of 8 x 10. 8 feet. The second second is 6 x 8 foot hearth and a foot print of 8.8 x 11.4 feet. 

1. These plans are for sale. For enquiries drop me a line at Alexiasavvides@gmail.com

If you are still looking for the plans and I never sent you the link, there is a new thread in the Brick oven section that I created and it has the link in it.  It would take me forever to find who I sent it to and who I did not.  Hope this helps anyone.
