The hopefully not obnoxious wood fired brick oven build thread

[smurfjuice]

For metal studs, use a fine thread screw.

Thank you, Smurfy,

Da rest of youse farktards can go f ya selfs.

 

[Evets]

If you're using lighter than 20 gauge studs, you may have to pre-drill the screw holes to get them to grab.

 

[paulthenurse]

I have no idea what the gauge is. To be honest, I didn't know there where different gauges. I just grabbed a bunch of pieces off the pile at Lowes based on what would give me the least waste. I didn't even see if they had different gauges, they only had one small stack of steel studs.

Whatever. I'll be dead in 40 years, it only has to last that long.

 

[bluemoose]

I have a 12 gauge if you need it to "predrill" some holes in that thing.

Got a little done on the oven this weekend in between putting the yard and the boat to bed for the winter. Extended the ridge out to create an overhang.

And I managed to keep all my fingers while winterizing LSU. Scott is coming over next weekend with his flamethrower to shrink wrap her. That thing is scary. It's a little bit of Okinowa in my back yard.

 

[smurfjuice]

Hmmm, looks a bit Hanzel und Grettle ... no? ... and you didn't use any track ???

 

[paulthenurse]

I did what the guy at Lowes told me. What are tracks?

Same as a stud but wider. say if you were building a 2x4 wall, the track would be your top plate and shoe. in this case, the stud would fit into the track and you would screw through the track into the stud. stiffens the bejeezahs out of your frame as well..... i see a lot in the pic that could be different... just sayin'

 

[Cape Brewing]

Don't let him rain on your parade Paulie... you just keep on going buddy.

Looks great! Don't let anyone tell your different

Fark off, popcorn/jizz swallower.

Yes. There are real tracks on the top and the bottom

Gawd I hope you (Cape) die an excruciatingly painful death. Sooner would be better.

 

[Cape Brewing]

Uhhhhhhhhh. Waaaaaatch it Paulie... Watch yourself now.

Donnnnn't make me unleash the greatest photo ever taken. I'll do it!

So he's coming to stand next to your oven tomorrow?

 

[Cape Brewing]

I don't why you let this stuff bother you Paul. For someone who obviously doesn't have any carpentry or handyman experience, I think this thing has actually come out pretty decent.

I don't know why you think that picture is so great. I'm sitting on a stool in the corner sipping a Stinger. Big deal.

Why would you do that?

Ok, what picture?

 

[the_bird]

Jesus, are those studs made out of tin foil? Good thing they won't be exposed to the elements at all, it'd suck if they rusted away to nothing before spring.

So, it takes your stud and makes it stiffer? Is that what you're saying?

Ayup', ...:beard:

A week or two ago I stopped at The Sluice Room right before they closed. The place was packed with the usual collection of Financial District cubical dwellers, homeless alcoholics, runaways and sociopaths. I get myself a beer and sit in the only available chair, a stool in the corner. I'm sipping my beer when Dingleberry snaps my picture from behind the bar. Apparently he found it hysterical that I was sitting on a stool in the corner.

Ya. I know. A laugh riot.

Well, sure.
I'd rather sit on my own stool than someone else's!

 

[HoppyDaze]

So, you let your kid put his erector set on your oven?

 

[Cape Brewing]

Please, this is WAY better than "i was just sitting on a stool".

1) the overalls are FAN-tastic..
and
2) sittin' with all your friends?

Looks like Jabba's palace.

 

[Evets]

I'd have me a pair of overalls too if I could find some in my size!

Now... While I know Paul would be total *****enozzle in this situation, I can not be... And will add to the story that we had been talking for a while at the bar, shootin the shti, making fun of Yeager, and having some beers..... when Mr. TheNurse walked away and decided that was a good spot to rest his tired feet.

I looked over from behind the bar and realized that was cover-of-Time-magazine material right there and got my phone out as quickly as possible.... and I think getting it just as he glanced up was a really nice touch.

It was instantly met with, "you fcukin' sahck!" in a solid Boston accent.

Just pure beauty really.

You mean in a Super Mario kind of way.

He looks like the creepy old man waiting for a glimpse of yoga pants.

 

[HoppyDaze]

Looks like he's simply using the fart corner conveniently located next to the sh1tter

Except Cape didn't wear his yoga pants that night...
