I BUILD A PIZZA OVEN... WITH DIY SKILLS

[@TheMaxied]

Just like many just found your channel, very cool build! Greetings from Rotterdam, The Netherlands

[@atrisk8566]

Hi watching from Australia just wanted to say nice to see you having a crack. People are to scared to make mistakes these days but it’s the best way to learn. Regards Joel.

[@Myrddraal12]

I love watching videos of people building not knowing how to do it and figuring it out. Well done looks great. Sydney Australia here.

[@ching574]

first time coming to your page this is a sweet build ive been wanting to build a pizza oven myself but would rather do it myself to save on money and this has given me some good information Northern California USA here

[@jsimes1]

Oh my, this is the channel I have been waiting for! I have been researching building a bread/pizza over for years! It has always been so intimidating that I haven't dared make a go of it! I think you have given me the confidence to jump right in and cock it up from the get go! 😂 But seriously you obviously have talent and know what you are doing ... the second or third time around anyway! 😁 Thanks for the inspiration from New Hampshire USA!

[@angelahoddinott6998]

I love your videos! The humor, the cock-ups, your bleeped swearing, I love it all! Makes me laugh, and that just makes my day. You're very talented, by the way, and I absolutely love this outdoor kitchen. My only complaint is I need more videos! Lots of love and encouragement from New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Thank you what a kind comment, it’s really appreciated! 😀

[@SamDaviesBuilder]

Looking like a great outdoor setup you’re going to have. I’m nearly finished with mine, they are such a satisfying project to do and even more satisfying when you get to cook with them!

[@DaddyWolf1965]

Love what you're doing, botched ups left in.. good for a laugh or two. Wathing from Anna Paulowna, The Netherlands

[@tomFisher_mont]

Love how it’s going, Alex! Also rather envious of your garden space - would love an outdoor haven like that. Watching from Barcelona, Spain.

[@Pommie]

I’m new to the channel, and also relatively new to DIY; I’m currently building some built in cupboards myself. Great videos, keep up the good work! I’m an expat watching from Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺 (though I’m originally from Kent, UK 🇬🇧)

[@nurmukhamedartykaly4005]

Thanks for a great video. From Astana, Kazakhstan.

[@maximebedard9825]

I really like this kind of diy build ! I like that you keep the real life footage, good or bad. I wish to build a pizza oven one day in my life, cheers from Montreal, Québec, Canada.

[@viniciusdimon8119]

Gorgeous build! Love the old brick aesthetic. I'm DIYing a brick stove myself at home too, there's always troubles for someone who's never done it before. heheh Greetings from São Ludgero, Brazil.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Yes, it’s turning out alright. Good luck with your build hope it’s going well 😀

[@kevinromania]

A lovely refreshing change from the super slick American builds where everything is perfect and they never make a mistake. Good for me to watch as one of these could be on the cards for my cabin in Romania. Brasov is my nearest town if you fancy whacking a pin in. Thank you :)

[@glynotglen1098]

Love this channel, just discovered it. I’ve been wanting to build an outdoor kitchen and pizza oven for years. Really given me the inspiration to give it a go. Thank you. Glyn from Newcastle Australia

[@NorthernContrarian]

Hello, from Finland. Just found this channel. Been planning on building one of these pizza ovens myself. I like the fact that it’s not one of these super pro channels, we actually get to see the trial and error aspect as well.

[@WolvesValleyFarm]

Just found your channel. Watched part 1 of this built as well. Cheers, Kevin, the tiny village of Cherventsi, Bulgaria

[@shaunsmith8729]

Hey Alex, Its so impressive watch you just go for it despite this not being your trade. Great to see, keep it up!

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Cheers Shaun we’re getting there!

[@allanperker5684]

You are so real and talented.

[@987caymanontrack]

Wonderful pizza oven, I now can’t wait to binge your other videos! I’m too renovating my property and currently building the outdoor Pompei pizza oven, I’m glad to know I’m not the only one who enjoy doing (and entertain!) these sort of works/ideas 😄

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Brilliant, sounds like you’re keeping busy. You should film it 👍😀

[@Godonstilts]

Love finding me a good UK DIYer doing building projects - ESPECIALLY a pizza oven!! Keep it up. Subbed!

[@Take_And_Make]

Nice looking oven! Everything you cook in there gonna be so delicious! Greetings from Edmonton, Alberta P.S. Got yourself a new sub! Looking forward seeing your next projects

[@wearevermont]

Really enjoying the build process! Giving a ton of great ideas for my own build next summer - much appreciated! Cheers from Stratton, Vermont (the Green Mountain state).

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Great stuff glad to be of help. I say go for it, I hugely enjoyed building this 👍👍

[@talullahlabelle]

It takes me back in time! …………….. watching you build is like watching ‘It’s a Knockout’, I never know what disaster is coming next, but I love it!! 🤣🫡😎

[@AlexBuildsUK]

I was thought they were a little bit more organised and it’s a knockout 🙃🤣👍

[@IveysFamilyFactotum]

watching from the States (Arkansas) and yes I too would LOVE to see the barn finished but this pizza oven is VERY nice and one day we do plan to build one. Glad to see it can be done even as a DIY'er as yeah we are no expert either...lol.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Well, as I mentioned the barn is in progress and going well. As soon as I’ve got the last episode of the kitchen out, I’ll be back with some more updates on that project. Thanks for watching 😀

[@wv838]

I pass Domino's on the way home from the airport. £19.99 and 10 minutes later, I'm done. So much easier, Alex! Great progress, sir.

You could do a good roast dinner on that fire 🥩😀

[@dannysavage674]

Watching from Johannesburg, South Africa! I feel that you would’ve gotten a better draw from that chimney had it been on the back chamber.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Maybe. Will cover most of this in the next episode, don’t worry it all turns out alright. Thanks for watching.

[@manuelt.3376]

Thank you man. I find your video extremely helpful 😊

[@benheywood3032]

Can't wait to see the fireplace in the barn!

Don’t go giving me any more ideas 🤣

[@heathagius3598]

Just found your channel very entertaining keep it up from Adelaide Australia

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Thank you! Will do 😀

[@evanherk]

It falls down because arches need side support - the top pushes the sides out!. I predict - I haven't seen the rest of the video yet - that the fire is going to make very serious cracks in your work of art.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Don’t worry, I know this! It will all come good in episode three 😀

[@rhyssimms591]

Chimney should of been more to the back, so the draw from the arch opening can draw front to back

[@kamilg.4413]

Cheers from Poland! :)

[@travisjicorcoran5870]

Alex, man, this is the SECOND arch you've built, then collapsed. On the next one, build some butresses/ side supports as the arch goes up. Don't pop out the false work until the side supports are all set up!

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Actually Travis, I’ve built three arches and I think you’ll find only two of them have collapsed 🤣🤣🤣

Hello Alex, greetings from Florida, USA! I’m wondering if you’ve checked the temperature on the outside of the oven to see how hot it gets?

[@zbeshears6945]

Idk why this was recommended to me. But chiming in from Arkansas, United States

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Well, I’m glad it did, and welcome aboard 😀

[@physiolympha]

I hope that by now, whenever you use the oven, there is no black soot at the top of the oven :) top of oven should be burning hot completely

[@jhippl]

why the barrel design over a dome? greetings from Tallassee, Al.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

A lack of ability to do something else 🤣👍👍

[@Vanosphere]

The bricks on their own won't hold an arch.. you have to build the surrounding bricks to hold it in place before removing the mould.. it's physics

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Don’t you worry, I was only testing out the look of them. It all comes good in episode three 😀

a trick question "what's the difference between Kilos and Kilos to Kilograms? "

[@JohnDoe-ni9zm]

do you really need firebricks for a DIY pizza oven? what happens if I use regular bricks?

[@user-bf4we3xj2p]

Wet the bricks before laying them, otherwise they will absorb all the liquid from the cement and will not adhere and cracks will form.

[@leslieandrews6324]

I guess we will see, but have you thought about dipping the bricks in a bucket of water for 10 seconds right before laying the brick

[@larryr2000]

Love your approach to this project. Can’t wait to see more. Well done. Watching you from Portland Oregon USA.

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Thank you very much Larry 😀

[@robinkirk3601]

Buttress ! ! ! no arch with out it.

Don’t worry Robin it all comes good in episode three 😀

[@robinkirk3601]

@@AlexBuildsUK I am yelling at the TV And my wife wants to know what Trump has done now! No, I say, this guy, from the UK, the home of gothic Cathedrals is building an arch without buttressing. Now, at this point, I should tell you that I am on a quest to visit every English Cathedral - and being from Canada, my poor wife has developed what we call a Cathedral allergy. (after only 4 hours at a Cathedral, her eyes begin to turn red, and she cant stay awake) To properly buttress, you are very close to the edge of the concrete pad. - But again, the point of all this is your put yourself out there, and let us see what happens. So, thank you (PS, from Iona Station Canada)

[@AlexBuildsUK]

Joking aside - the first arch that collapsed was me rushing it, the second one was just to get a feel for how the fire bricks might sit at that rotation, I was never going to leave that in place. Good luck with the Cathedral crusade - hope the marriage survives it 😜
