This is the progress on my oven, The stone foundation:
The stones were reset several times. I decided that two layers of stone were best for stability. Then river gravel.
Every day Ido about one hour of essentially physical therapy. The gaps in the rocks are filled in with gravel. I added a flat rock surface for a small hibachi near the eventual door
As you can see my work area is right nearby. I am experimenting with cob mixtures by making seedbeads, a slight modification of Fukukouka-san's methos of using clay seedballs to farm and restore land.
