Brick by Brick, The Story of the Pizza Oven Build
Many friends ask us about the oven. Did we build it? Yes, Roger designed and built it.  How did he learn how to do it? Well...his engineering background came in really handy after he watched YouTube videos.  How long did it take? Roger says 6 weeks, Gayle says all summer.
