Oven Construction For Cold Climates
I tend to use my ovens all year, but much less frequently in the winter. Not only do I have to wade through snow to get to them, but the ovens take a long time to heat up.
If you're planning to build an outdoor oven and you live in a cold climate, then consider building an oven with not much mass. This would be especially true if you plan on baking mostly flat breads. In other words, just a red or firebrick floor and not more than 4" of mud, earth or brick on the sides and top. You should also totally insulate the oven because it will heat up faster, hold the heat longer, and you'll burn less wood. I will try to take my own advise with I totally rebuild the oven shown.

I'm the sort of guy who enjoys to taste unprecedented stuff. Right now I'm building my private solar panels. I am managing it all by myself without the aid of my staff. I'm using the net as the only way to acheive that. I came across a really awesome website that explains how to create photovoltaic panels and wind generators. The internet site explains all the steps involved in solar panel construction.
I am not exactly sure about how correct the information given there iz. If some people over here who have xp with these works can have a peak and give your feedback in the page it would be great and I would highly treasure it, cauze I extremely take an interest in solar panel construction.
Tnx for reading this. U people rock.
