great video no hate what so ever but not heating the stone up that goes under the pizza defeats the whole purpose of a pizza oven, but great video really enjoyed it and thank you for sharing this!
Ya for sure, I didn’t really do any research ahead of time as I like trying new things. It did take a very long time to cook a pizza haha. If I do another one there would be a few design changes for sure! Thanks for watching
@@DrewBuildsStuff if you decide to build it again, you should put the chimney at the front, the way you have it, most of the heat just goes straight up out the chimney and none of it really cascades over the pizza.
Another thing with heating up the stone like lilmug809 says, if you dont, you risk thermal shock breaking the ceramic tile which weren’t designed to be used under the amount of heat, better to get a piece of corderite and cutting that down to size.
Yah - was coming here to say to move the chimney to the front as well! I would start the burn and then rake some coals under the stone area to heat the bottom as well.
As for the tile…. It’s interesting. Being that thin it’s going to heat up quickly - don’t know that preheating would do much. I’ve been welding on ceramic tile for a while and never broken one. Need to see, though.
Anyway, great job!!
Wait! Pizza ovens in Italy don’t heat the bottom stone from underneath! They build the fire right in the middle and then move it to the back or one side. The chimney is in the front, though.

Here’s the perfect design. Lil mug needs to go to Italy and do better research.
First of all great idea!!!! 👏👏Thanks for sharing! We followed your steps but also changed some ingredients. We mixed perlite with Portland cement and coated the oven with ceramic tiles. I read that using perlite for the insulation supports slow heating and cooling which in result avoids the cracking. We installed the chimney to the front side instead of back. The fire flows over the pizza and flow up from the chimney. The result is awesome. Until now we do not have any cracks. I will post again, if anything goes wrong👍
Awesome glad to hear it!
Hi there,
It is definitely one of the easiest ways to build a oven as a DIY project. I loved the idea. Damla if you allow me, I'd like to say that installing the chimney in the front of the oven was brilliant. Could you share to me how long does it take to cook a pizza? Thanks for sharing your experience experience.
@@tiagovivas Thanks I read and watched a lot of resources and they all installed the chimney to the front. In my country the weather is very moisture in this season therefore I'm still making little fire every week to train the oven. The oven has reached to 250° at last. Our aim is to get 350° at least. I will post again when we put a pizza in it 👍
@@DamlaYldrm86 250°C is definitely an achievement and would cook a pizza in up to 4 minutes! Definitely 350° will be amazingly impressive. Do you mind If I ask you how your concrete ratio with perlite looks like?
Thanks again
Yes, keen to know these ratios too
Excellent work and build. However a major flaw is the chimney is at the back. The heat just goes right up. Should have put the chimney at the front that way the heat will cook the top of the pizza before it goes up.
You might be able to modify the design if u use a angle grinder to cut open the back and use that as the front and either cement the existing front and make that the back. Alternatively try using he existing chimney as feed in rocket stove and cover the lid, that way the flame will escape to the front of the pizza oven. Ie.. a chimneyless design. Might be easier if u try that first.
30 minutes for a pizza in a wood hoven is too much, big mistake putting the chimney like that.
Yes I did little to no research as I wasn't positive the build (mainly the mold) was going to work. Use this as inspiration there's lots of comments with a few minor design tweaks that should make it work fairly well!
Great idea! Could also use a diamond hole saw to cut a small opening(s) in the roof near the door…
The major flaw is the entire oven kekw
@@DrewBuildsStuff it did cook though
This is the easiest pizza oven build I've ever seen, and no back-breaking lifting required. Thanks to the comments I see a few useful modifications to make. This is one I can gift to a friend for his balcony, thanks for this inspiration
How does this not have 30 million views already?
2 or 3 ideas to upgrade said oven:
- instead of the inside black template use strips of ceramic tiles that will form the inside sides/ceiling of the heating/insulating layer of the oven
- use a thick ceramic tile as the floor & fire surface ...
- build any inside structure like racks or shelves out of ceramics
= all of the above serve to conserve heat
- chimneys should be in the oposite side of the fire to create an airflow
- any door shouldnt get to ceiling level since that hot air needs to be kept inside
- chimney also could get the tube a little under the ceiling level
Great points!
man you are absolutely genius!! watching you execute is the most therapeutic thing i've ever seen when it comes to customizing and building craft. God bless you and your artwork brother!!
Good work! Great editing too! I’d love to see you build another based on what you’ve learnt! I think you are very creative.
Appreciate your creativity in putting this little unit together. As other have already mentioned, the chimney needs to be at the front (to prevent all the heat from escaping up the middle). Also, you could consider (in your next version) using some Perlite/Vermiculite mixed in with mortar/concrete to increase the insulation properties of the oven (keeping more heat inside the unit). Given the size of this oven, a small bag would suffice and it's inexpensive. And of course, a few (thin) fire bricks (for the base) instead of a ceramic tile. You'll have to make it a little taller (due to bricks), but it will make a huge difference in properly cooking the mini pizzas. Looking forward to version 2.
Good ideas, I’m working on building a new and improved one now. I’ll add those changes to the list. Thanks! 😊
@@DrewBuildsStuff great build, only suggestion if possible would be to add side handles. You got me wanting to build one more. Thank you
I think the form could also be longer, to make long pizzas , like turkish pide, and still have a pretty small unit for a not so mini pizza.
Fantastic video! I'm glad you put every single step for those who want to replicate it.
*Tip: make sure you are wearing disposable gloves when working with concrete. Handling wet concrete with bare hands can lead to skin peeling and a lot of pain.*
Stay safe!
The acid can also penetrate deeply, and leave you with pock-marked fingerprints for the rest of your life. I'll give you 1 guess how I found this out!
My favorite part of this video is that those people that always contradict and say oh you can't do that...
Well here it is!
My son(whose name happens to be Drew as well) has been begging me to build a pizza oven. Thanks for posting this video. Hopefully, we will be able to build one like this.
Thanks for watching! Check out some of the comments, there are few people posting that have a few design changes that would increase efficiency. Let me know if you build one!!
@@DrewBuildsStuff you know, that’s really cool of you to point that out.
Nice to see the craftman ship on how to do stuff👍, This build got later on x-ed big time 😂. An option might have been to use this as a firebox unit, for a cold/warm vertical smoker. Using a waterpan to regulate and accumulate the heat/smoke. Or second layer/unit on top, pushing air from the back to the front for a pizza unit, temp probe in the floor and one in roof air temp.
My GE microwave from 2005 finally crapped out. At first czcams.com/users/postUgkxO_Bc204MGjxDl87cOKcdgaRhzSqGmv_g I was unsure because I was looking for something with the exact same features. Found it with this one. Interior space cavity was large, but the outside was smaller than my old one. I love the one-button push for 1-6 minutes, and the 30 second add or 30 second start. and MOST IMPORTANTLY, I love how you can adjust the power level during cooking. The reviews said it could not be done, but this marked all the other boxes. and happy to say, it does. I can hit 1 minute start, and change the power level from 10 to 5, 30 seconds in, without interruption. my favorite feature!
A rustic Easy Bake Oven, nice!
I have been looking for a way to make a much bigger oven but this technique would work well. I do think you will get much hotter temps by deleting the chimney or with the chimney in the front. You can also increase your thermal mass by making a deck out of cement. Also, placing a pizza on a cold tile will not only lower your temp but will make a poor pizza. The deck should be hot before placing a pizza on it. I am also very curious to know how the portland cement will hold up over time.
Let me know how it turns out! Yes this one has few design flaws that I would change, the chimney location being the biggest. It was still a fun build and I think I may try a bigger version as well. Thanks for watching!
Why does this look so easy and complex at the same time!. Creative 😊
Thanks!
Drew so creative just love watching your creative builds.😊
Would love to know the details of the measurements and dimensions for the out box and inner box ! Thanks
Ooo, you need to put the pizza on the bottom of the owen so that is hot under.
So cool. If like to try one like that size with a rocket stove underneath. I love the portability. Would be great for camping
Awesome !
Such a great idea this pizza oven ,thank you for sharing. As a Chef allow me please to advise you to use a pizza stone and to heat the stone bevore adding the pizza with a pizza peel so that the dough has no time to get soggy thank you for sharing.
It's a nice pizza oven I built one with mortared bricks finished with a parging my question is did your concrete crack? My concrete parging cracked and I used clay bricks under
Beautiful, you are an artist!!
hello
very interresting concept, i love it.
i am drawing mine, with pipe in the front, maybe a back door for wood feeding, and i will use
refractory cement, which is a concrete/cement (sorry for the name i am french) dedicated to heat purpose.
For the floor to cook the pizza i will use my weber round palte dedicated which is specific to cook pizza on fire. search for pizza rock (or rock for pizza weber) .
If i succedd be sure i will share my experience.
thank for your share.
Sounds like a good plan, you have made all the corrections that others have suggested. Should work pretty good! Let me know how it goes
The chimney is misplaced, releasing all your heat directly up the chimney, rather than heating the oven. This is critically important in this case as concrete is a very poor heat sink compared to clay or ceramics. In this design, the chimney should be forward of the cooking area so that the heat must cross over the item to be cooked and then exhausted out through the chimney.
You are correct the chimney is to far back
Excellent and simple design! I am going to try to build one that will cook a 12" pizza, using a standard 12" tile for the cook platform. No need to even cut the tile. Great idea! I will add perlite for its insulating properties as well as making it a bit lighter......
Good idea, let me know how it turns out!
Do not use pre mixed quickrete.
@@urbancowboyinct2161 Thanks for the advice, I bought three bags of 9000 PSI cement from Home Depot. Expensive but hopefully will not crack. I will also reinforce with 6 by 6 mesh.....
used cooking oil is an excellent mold release, no need for expensive spray.
Good idea, I’ll give it a try on the next project. 👍
What did u used for the surface u put the pizza on?
Great idea. In my personal opinion, I'll put the chimney in front. And then I'll make it a little wider to put a proper stone pizza... Oh, and I almost forgot, put broken glass in the concrete mix to keep heat.
Excellent. If u put some extra support from the bottom of tiles, will not break by thermal shock.
Chimney on the wrong side. Looks beautiful.
Could you do one for a full size pizza please? I loved this ond
Currently planning one, this one has a bunch of flaws that I’m going to fix as well
That is adorable. Thank you
Supposedly the best placement for the chimney is in the front so the fire in the rear pulls the air in and it flows to the fire then up and out the front making the heat circulate better. I watched this video while on the phone so if you said that i missed it.
This is legit awesome. Really cool build and will definately be giving it a go myself! Thanks for the inspiration and motivation.
Thank you 👍
Also a tip, I’d make the body of the oven a couple inches taller so theres more room for the fire if I made it again! A lot of the heat leaves straight out the stack at the current height. Good luck!
@@DrewBuildsStuff awesome, yeah i did wonder if that'd be the case. Thanks for the tip!
I was wondering if shifting the stack foreward to front might also solve the issue? I.e Forcing the heat over the top of the pizza
That was really genius idea when you kept gap between oven floor and the tile.
waiting to see your improved version of table top pizza oven, and how well it cooks your pizza.
Working on building it now!
Awesome video, I loved it. 😎👍
Thanks for the inspiration!
how long did the pizza take to cook.. I noticed you put it into the oven on a cold tile... that must have taken ages to heat up.. I was reading about pizza ovens and seemingly the idea is to get them as hot as poss so the pizza cooks in 2 minutes or something.. Is that possible with your oven.. it looks very nice.
Yes it takes about 20 minutes so not ideal. Theres a couple comments on how to improve the design with a few simple tweaks so take a look at those!
Awesome? Can you tell us how much concrete you used, what's in the concrete, and/or the weight of the oven? Thanks!
Under 1 bag, about 40 lbs
@@DrewBuildsStuff thanx a lot
vault oven Chimney should build on the front. if you put Chim on the end of the oven it will not generate heat as it should be.
the Chimney should build at the front end so the heat will not directly go up but circulate first inside the oven
Use a sander to vibrate the mold to remove the air bubbles
Great job!!!
I love y videos. Could y send me the measurements, I really want to do this project.. And, what type of concrete to use or could I mix perlite so it will not blow up?
There are countless defects I see in this project but all easy fixes. Nonetheless it's the easiest idea to fabricate a pizza oven I have ever seen. What I would have done different is to make it bigger, add a layer of insulation either by using perlite in the cement mix or a layer of rockwool and the chimney goes to the front of the oven near the entrance so that the heat doesn't escape right away upwards.
Thanks for the suggestion! Yes it was just a quick project that I started without a lot of research.
Drew, I just saw a video of a guy who built a really cool Igloo on his parents front lawn on CTV. As I am enjoying the video, I see something familiar! It looks like you're pizza oven is heating the igloo! So cool, it caught my eye! Well done. I now have all my materials and will start building my pizza oven, inspired by yours soon......cheers
Hey yes that was me it’s on the igloo video on my channel actually. Thanks for watching!
@@DrewBuildsStuff Great! I will watch your igloo video and give you a big thumbs up! Cheers
Excellent effort. I wonder if a precast concrete pipe of suitable diameter might be forced into service with a suitable cradle and internal fittings... but I guess you'd have to cut it and then die of silicosis. Your video production smarts are excellent.
Slightly larger 12-13", chimney in front, fireclay plate below and, of course, high temperature
Hi, what sheets are they for the mold?
Drew would you mind showing us how oven had faired over a few months
It’s in my newest video actually! Still in pretty much the same condition other than all the paint has come off the smoke stack now
Amazing job Just missing some finishing tilling work ...
Podrás hacer un horno a gas y mostrarlo en video por favor pero mostrando el paso paso de como se hace el mechero
The comments have some great suggestions on what to change but damn thats a nice idea thank you for the time you spend doing this because I really like this idea
Thanks cyle! Yes there are a few changes I’d make on a second try, this one was more of an experiment without a lot of planning
Tabletop time bomb!!!!
I'm sure someone told him that that deck-tile he used needs to be preheated to properly bake a pizza.
Yes several times haha
@@DrewBuildsStuff In any case, you did a great job 👍
You are sick dude 🥰 , I love all what you have build, I'm your new fans from Indonesia
Good job!
Great video amazing results but for the next oven do the exhaust in the front that way you put the wood on the back and the heat travels to the front
Oh! That is excellent information. Sorta obvious, but I appreciate being told! Thank you.
Can i use a alluminum pipe ?
Great building skills that requires ton of patience 😅
Howevey, the oven is extra small and the location the flue should be near the front not the back, with this design the front and the centre of the oven doesn't get hot. Good luck i definitely enjoyed the video
Complimenti per il video e la realizzazione del forno. Puoi mettere le misure che hai utilizzato per la progettazione e creazione del forno? Grazie
What type of tile are you using?
Wow. I will surely try it on my channel
The smoke and the carbon does go directly in the food isn't it, is it hygienic?
How long needs the Pizza in the Oven to finish?
Exelente! Muy buen vídeo. Que medidas tiene.?
Next week I will start making a pizza oven and will spend around $300-$400.
big size oven to cook pizza in under 2 minute also to cook meat fish and breads.
soon I will post my video.
Such a good idea
Hello what material did you use to make the structure?
Its just standard concrete
Vermiculite added to the concrete would increase temperature resistance.
Nice oven.
If the chimney was more towards the opening then the heat will pass over the pizza.
You dont show what material you add to cement. Stone and sand is good for the floor but pearlite and vermiculite is better for sides and top.
I prefer gemopolymer cement which can handle high temperature.
Opc cement cracks at 300 degrees C.
Using quikrete cement is a fatal flaw I believe. I use perlite and high heat cement on my portable ovens.
Hes got a great design though.
Inventive and nice job! But you should have used refractive cement for the casting and better insulation and heat retention materials. Also agree with other viewer the chimney should be in front. Nice idea though - how about an improved re-do? Like your idea though, and nice neat work
best i’ve seen yet!
Lot of work but nice pizza over- however like others have said your stove pipe should be in front- hot air is going right out the back- when it should be heating right over what your cooking but still looks amazing nice work 👍🏻
do not think heat would be enough to cook pizza. wooden pizza ovens requires to much isolation but this has almost none. what u think?
It does work, just takes about 20 minutes. There has been quite a few comments below with some design changes to make this more efficient. I’m going to do a new one soon!
Max temp u were able to get?
you can make it refractory cement by adding cheep clay "cat litter"
good morning drew my name is Patricia I love your work I'm watching you right now. how w a s your Christmas happy New Year Patricia God bless you amen
Awesome idea, but sadly the pizza looks like coming out of a regular kitchen oven with too little heat 😪. The oven needs to be hotter than say 350 degrees Celsius. It really should only take a few mins to cook.
Time and temperature?
The chimney should be moved to the front. It's cute but anyone looking to make this niece understand how pizza ovens work. They are super simple. They should also be an air gap in there some way to allow the fire to get air. All that's happening is your burning a fire and it's rising straight up out of the chimney. Yeah it kind of works if you leave it in there long enough but it's definitely not efficient.
Yes for sure, it was just a quick afternoon project that I started. There are a lot of things that could be different to make it more efficient. Thanks for watching
Mister excuse me materiale for dima???paper?
Great build and concept! Seconding a few comments recommending moving the chimney to the front in order to draw the heat across the pizza - will make a big different to the cook.
The other thing I see here as a fundamental flaw is that you’re not using the concrete floor of the oven to cook the pizza, or installed a cut down pizza stone to use instead. You’re losing the efficiency of the oven by sliding the pizza in on a cold tile. The brilliance of these types of ovens is how fast the heat energy is able to be transferred into the dough/pizza when it’s slid onto an extremely hot pizza stone/oven floor.
You should be able to cook a pizza in 60-90sec if cooking directly on the floor of the oven.
No refractory of any kind??? Cool idea, but that standard concrete will quickly spald and ruin.
The audio at the end...
so wonderful beautiful oven do you have make
I want that pizza
Please redo this oven with the modifications based on the 1st design. I think u are on something great.
And, how long did this project take y?
super video sa ma inspire
The chimney is on the wrong end (for more heat)
zinic coated steel wire is toxic under high temp, use stainless stell wire instead
Good to know, thanks!
@@DrewBuildsStuff Yes i was going to mention that too.
Great idea, great work--leave the background music out of the vd--it's distracting and hard on the ears. Just the natural sound of your work would be less irritating.
Nice but chimney should be in the front so heat passes on top of pizza and not straight up. Like that you are loosing all the heat
You bet. Was a quick design, needs a few changes to make it effective
Does oven still one piece. Standart concrete not will be long life
Yup working as a wood stove in my newest video doing great
I have personally had ceramic tile explode from uneven heating, just be careful if doing this at home
Why the chimney in the back? It was all going great... It is practical and nice looking nonetheless.
I Was thinking more about looks when I designed it I guess. Definitely slowed down the cooking process by having the chimney at the back
