8th Level, Going Up!

Another good weekend of brick laying. The bricks are now up to the 8th level and there are about 4 to 5 more to go. The going should get easier since there are less bricks as it goes higher.



I need to do a lot more brick cutting now to fit the odd spaces. There is a lot of dust and debris flying around so I now wear safety goggles when cutting or grinding. Safety first!



And work has finally started on the opening. This part is a bit tricky. Its not the same work as just putting the bricks down and moving on to the next brick. Figuring out how to frame the opening and how the bricks are going to go in place using the angle iron to support it over the opening took some thinking. I'll spend more time on this next week and hope to complete a level of bricks across the opening.



Getting closer to pizza time!

I can't find my old comments , have you erased them , hehe.

I suppose it's better that you use your hands for such work than that which you normally use them for.

I will start compiling an encyclopedia of pizza recipes so that I may assist you in the shake out stage!
