Thank you! It is the unfinished roof over the cob pizza oven. I was going to do a thatched roof but am out of energy for that project for now :(

Very cool! My wife @ecoinstante wants to make an oven for the farm so very much. We have a lot of cobb materials ready for our ecodome plaster, is it very hard to make a cobb oven? Would you/could you/should you recommend to me some free plans?
We did it as part of a permaculture design class. Let me look in my books for a plan on how to plan the dimensions and such. If I remember right, the opening is 1/3 the size of the dom.
My kids want us to build a bigger one and I would love to figure out how to connect it to a rocket stove. I have seen one picture and I think there is somebody in LA who has build one. I don't know anyone personally. That requires way less wood and burns much cleaner.
Let me gather all my materials (pics and books and such) together next week and write a post about our built.
Are you familiar with Permies.com? I bet there are tons of people on there with all kinds of build experiences.
And do you have a lot of land? I have shaman/permaculture friends who do workshops south of here (can't remember which country). Maybe you can host them and make sure they build you an oven as part of the deal :)
Start thinking how big of a pizza and/or how many breads you want to do at a time..... that will dictate your plan.
Hey I made this guide based on your question!
I can't wait for your post! We do have land, a lot is relative but it is a lot to us and there is plenty of room for tents! We have limited beds, 6 right now and 2 or 3 stay full ;p
We have thought of hosting a gathering but haven't been sure where to start, certainly there is always so much fun work to do ;p
I have often browsed permies but not much since I found steemit. I have tons of pdf about rocket heaters/stoves/others and dream about building one one day! Everything ends up connecting in homesteading/permaculture/sustainability, thats why it is a worthy lifelong pursuit. c:
