Great work!

Nice work on the door! That should trap the heat in the oven for several days.

Are you going to add a thermo to it? I installed a 800F Tel-Tru thermo on my door, works well but perhaps I should have gone with a 1000F thermo.

Thanks guys. I may add one yes, which one did you get? Got a link? It seems like trying to get the right lenght isnt always what it seems to be.

Outstanding work! I wish I had 1/2 those skills!

I mounted it right though my 3" oven door. It's a 2" diameter dial with a 6" long stem, simply spring clipped at the rear.
I got it directly from Tel-Tru.

Carbon, your handle looks an awful lot like a modified mortar trowel.
If so, that's just awesome.

V-wiz · 05-21-2013, 10:34 PM

Thanks for the info. Bob i think youre right about the trowel. I also used a trowel to make a coal rake. Ill post my oven tools when i take some pics

Wow man just Wow. i just went through all 22 pages and while i thought i knew what i wanted when i go after this project you just blew my mind. I don't care where ya live if you EVER are selling that house make sure you post it here i bet it would sell here faster then any agent could sell it lol.

Skip the house pic's email those to the wife we've seen all we need to see to sign the paperwork lol.

V-wiz · 05-24-2013, 01:30 AM

Lmao thanks for the kind words and encouragement.

V-wiz · 05-27-2013, 12:27 AM

Here is the door painted with 4 coats of high heat paint, i only painted the outside of the door.

V-wiz · 05-27-2013, 12:35 AM

Finally got around getting my oven tools together.

8" peel, custom made coal rake made out of a steel trowel with the end bent. Brass wire brush with a scraper end. Large aluminum peel. Natural bristle brush, ash/coal shovel (home made). A bubble popper, i actually bought that to move pans in and out of the oven. A coal shovel and long tongs.

Wow, V! I've been away for a little while. I come back, and am just blown away by what you guys have done. I love building and welding, but I've always had a soft spot in my heart for masonry work. This project is just fantastic. Very sexy build! Congrats!

Thanks alot Tish, really appreciate it. I think i feel the same way about masonry and stone work

Bob in St. Louis · 05-27-2013, 10:58 AM

That's just cool !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Carbon · 05-27-2013, 11:15 AM

Those are cool tools! I made my tools too, including a couple of them using 3/4" copper tubing as handles. I also use a length of 1/2" copper tubing to blow and clear ash.

That oven door came out really nice! Hope it's not too heavy with all the metal.
