Welcome to the 2015/2016 School Year!

Oh boy, here we go again with good intentions of keeping up posts on this blog...has it really been 2 years? Well, there are a few projects that happened in that time, and here is one that was really successful with an 8th grade class.  Ladies and gents, regard the Adobe wood burning outdoor oven!  I used the plans from Sunset magazine:  http://www.sunset.com/garden/how-to-sunset-classic-adobe-oven




note the can for the back vent


mixing the adobe, using clay from the garden





working on the door



adding adobe mixture to wire form
The door!


Forming opening to oven with curved flashing

Keeping adobe moist so not too many cracks


Burning out the cardboard barrel

Finished!
