i saw this oven in his update 2 years later and it still looked like it was in perfect nick, no cracks or anything. Looks like I found my Spring project, cheers mate!

Congrats on a beautiful build. I've been checking out tons of videos and websites in preparation to build my own, and this is the nicest DIY from scratch oven I've seen on here. Cheers!
This idea is brilliant and easy, I took the idea and ran with it. We cut a hole in some plywood with a support for the ball underneath to make it more secure. Around here I didn't have access to pumice so I substituted lava rock then added stainless concrete needles that I bought with my refractory concrete. My dome slipped off of my wheelbarrow onto the patio when we were putting it in place and it bounced and didn't crack. The one mistake I think he made was having the door on the outside, that's fine when your using it but if your trying to hold heat for a longer period of time all the heat goes up the chimney . We set our steel oven door past where the chimney is so after the pizza party is over you can put in a pork shoulder and have pulled pork for the next morning. Great addition to any backyard. Thanks so much.Brad Hansen
Great video I have just finished making my pizza oven just waiting impatiently for it to dry out , it was a easy job thanks to your fantastic detailed tutorial .
This is the most brilliant design have I have seen thus far. I think that I have watched every video on the web about this and figured I would have to hire someone to make the dome. I am truly thankful for your willingness to share and your ingenuity!!
Thanks for watching Thomas ! This is the first ever TH-cam Gym-ball oven that started a craze.This was my second oven here >th-cam.com/video/0FzuScb28gs/w-d-xo.html
What a wonderful looking peace of kit. You made it like a professional, you are outstanding. You put so much time and detail to make it an attractive looking peace of garden furniture. Good on you.
Bloody nora. That is a great looking oven. You have also done your research aswell. A+ for aesthetic appeal. Ill go read the description on the upload to see just how much more info you have included.
So simple and cheap! Nice & creative. I was looking at pizza ovens and the one I wanted was $2000. Can you believe that? Definitely gotta get my uncles to help me build this :)
I have made mine from vermiculite, I used a milkshake blender to make the finer stuff, it looks right, I just have to wait for it to dry, it was really fun to make, thank you for your idea, many thanks louise
Sounds great,you may now have the Worlds first vermiculite pizza oven.Give it a few months curing and start off with small fires.Cant wait to see your video !
I've read that perlite absorbes water. How long would it have to cure before first fireing? Would't exposing it to rain and dampness couse cracking to the dome when heated up? Great tutorial. I was thinking about digging my gym ball hals into the ground than adding opening.
JJGrice018 I have never seen someone build a Pizza oven which looks like a professional bakers collection :) Feels great to see such videos. Thanks and love from India.
Good job on the oven. I thought that was a rocket stove in the background then I saw your video on that as well. I was thinking of doing the same thing but just using cob as the oven but the gym ball as the form. I'd just make sure the air hole is where the door would go then when it dried I would deflate it. Then use the pumice or perlite as an insulation layer on top and as a light weight door. I like your idea for this and the rockt stove. That should be really light weight to take camping if you wanted to.
Seezor Thanks for watching ! This was an experiment in casting on a gym ball and using your cob would be the cheapest method and easy to repair any minor cracks that may appear.
Oven and stand are still going Michael but had a few small cracks in oven that I ground out and patched up ! The stand was made of offcuts and bits and pieces !
Thanks for your input and inspiration. I’ve just about finished my oven . Just making a mold for the door and we’ll, here’s my question/idea!! With the door closed we are essentially starving the wood of oxygen and heat will drop . I was thinking of making a few circular holes at bottom of door to regulate heat/are. What’s your feeling about this. Thanks again
Nice oven.. How much pumice did you use for the oven? Also about how much does a bag cost and what size? I want to make one an was wondering also how it's holding up to high heat.
May be best to do a small test batch to see how the plastic cement handles some heat as I thought it was for filling concrete joints, etc and is flammable ! >www.hunker.com/13401286/differences-between-portland-plastic-cement
Managed to stumble on your videos and some great info and guides for us to use. One think I can’t figure out I’s how you done the mushroom/cap for flu area can you help me with that thanks
You can see it at the 8.30 min mark or here at the 30,44 min mark >th-cam.com/video/0FzuScb28gs/w-d-xo.html It is the top or bottom of the 2 litre pepsi bottle I used for chimney with a bit of masking tape inside to make it rounded Ian !
Does the wet pumice cement stick to the dry cement? I see you make the dome shape and it cures fully then you add more to it, does the wet stick to the dry properly?
Thank you John! I just finished my oven. Now it is time for curing. How long before I should deflate the ball and remove the mold for the opening? Do you recommend periodically misting the oven with a spray bottle to slow the curing?
+johnplus5 Congratulation on your oven build, a week curing with damp rags and cover with plastic before deflating ball is enough ! Had a few small cracks top of dome that cops most heat so i turned over and added extra inch of mix to inside top of dome.See my new build here.th-cam.com/video/1tXuWRhS-No/w-d-xo.html

Sounds great ! Wear it in slowly with small fires after curing for a month or so and you should be fine T K !

Hi John, this looks great, won’t the heat be too much for it to sit on wood, or is this stuff pretty good?
Great video
+Graham Bate Thanks for watching Graham !

You could try that or just leave door slighty open . Good luck with your oven build Sean !
Congratulations, great job, I would like to know what measures the walls. mass thickness. thank you
It's about 1 1/2 inches thick on the walls and about 2 1/2 inches at top area that cops most heat !
Nice oven.. How much pumice did you use for the oven? Also about how much does a bag cost and what size? I want to make one an was wondering also how it's holding up to high heat.
I’m using a mix of 1 part plastic cement / high early to 2 parts pumice and 1 part perlite
May be best to do a small test batch to see how the plastic cement handles some heat as I thought it was for filling concrete joints, etc and is flammable ! >www.hunker.com/13401286/differences-between-portland-plastic-cement
