Rustybullethole Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 So its gone midnight am on the m25 foot mashed to the floor making progress at midnight motorway speed and come up upon two fellas in a muthafunking vintage Bentley doing just the same. Came off next exit on the 127 it sounded and looked magnificent on the flyby. somewhatfoolish, privatewire, Rust Collector and 22 others 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a wonderful world. Those big headlamps in my mirror. Truly magnificent. The two chaps had the leather hats and goggles too. All round awesomeness. I am still amazed.

Simplicity is easy to work on. When I was going to work last week, as I passed over the m3 there was a similar Bentley going south at 7 am ish . Probably not the same car as I don’t think you’d go down the m3 to get to France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakebullet Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Nigel the council noise man has a delightful way with words. He's been talking to my neighbour about the bastard AC. I have again strongly suggested that he get the company back and the units are taken off and put free standing in the garden. This was not met very well and even less so when I asked for a time frame. By coincidence* there is no AC tonight. Maybe genius next door is planning on laying low for a week and it will all go away magically. myglaren, Floatylight and privatewire 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightnider Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 19 year old son has never been much of a tinkerer, his interests have mainly circulated around gaming and he’s always been theoretical, but lately he’s been very much into cooking and food. Now he’s finishing his own Neapolitan pizza oven, and he’s learnt a lot. I hope it’ll live through its first fire!

loserone Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 2 hours ago, Rightnider said: Looking good for this summer! I agree! There's an optimal ratio for the height of the oven and the size of the opening it might be worth looking up. He's way ahead of me though!

Rightnider Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 He’s been reading up on this for a year, and is very thorough. The test batch of today was supposedly okay, 40 seconds for one pizza. We’ll be having friends over tomorrow and he’s promised to make pizzas for us then. Looking forward to that. loserone and Wack 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a pizza oven and the basic tomato, basil and mozzarella with Italian beer or wine is a guilty pleasure, like you say less than a minute and happiness is guaranteed !

He has been looking online, apparently there are a few who’s been making ovens using cement mixed with perlite. He made a casting mild using wet sand with cling film over, covering it with the mixture armed with chicken wire. The base was made with the same materials, and ‘biscotti’ pizza stones if remember correctly. He found some broken ones at a fair price. https://www.ausperl.com/perlite/pizza-oven/ GrumpiusMaximus, Dick Longbridge and Rustybullethole 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've a load of heavy fire bricks for the base of of mine (version 2.0) which should get very hot and "regulate" the temperature and many spares if anyone what some for their own constructions.
