How To Build a HUMONGOUS Earthen Oven - Townsends Homestead

You seem to use a lot of cob , in England we used wattle and daub to build houses did they ever use the same to build homes in the us

🧡

Wondering why the guy dressed as a baker needed to be dressed like a baker, apron and all, while working in the mud.

I feel like such a goof. I would have cut the wood to fit the clay.

What coutry do you live in

Live this! Is there a second part?

What eould have been used instead of fire brick? Cob bricks baked in the neighbor's cob oven?

Question: can you feel the heat from the outside the oven all the way around? If so I think it will be useful as a center piece connecting several rooms

Why no chimney?

First meal 🐟

What a project! Incredible! Anyone who lives in the tropic tryed to make the frame in bamboo? How it goes? Wanna try, but a live in Brazil and we're plenty of 2 species of bamboo in our property.

Wonder if a fire shelf would help with a smaller door?

Well done, all meat and no bones.👌

Lol, shoulda gone around and around- like building an igloo

what was the ratio for the cob mix please?

Did you make the forge in a similar way?

I want to build this oven.

If you get any more excited about handle will need medicine

humangus what ?

when do brick overs become popular?

why an oven that is a circle instead of a deep oven that is more barn shape?

It seems like a lot of your videos start with Thomas doing the hard mucky work.

what about the base. Eventually it will rot out ( being wood)

Before you even said it was from the canoe, i just had a feeling it was from it. :))

You and your mates do a great job Mr. Townsend.

The bricks I used for flooring have spaces between them so could I Groot them ?

Your math is off. If the oven is going to be twice as big, you'll need 8 times as much material.

Таким же и кузнечный горн,нано было изделати.Производительней и рациональней.С дымоходом токмо.?!Парни молодцы!Респект и уважением!

В России тоже,не раз встречал печи "подовые"в том числе.на..деревянной основе,фундаменте.срубах.Ибо, кирпич хлопотно изготавливати.Из экономи материала сил и времени.

When does the mammoth get cooked?

Nice basket!

I want so much to live like an 18th century woman. To live among nature, plant what I'll eat, do my own furniture and mostly to wear historical clothing.

Question: what local fruits, nuts, or greens do you have? Seeing all the bread and meat with nothing else makes me nervous for your colon health.

Where’s part 2?

These people have a better sense of fashion than most fashion shows

I had no idea you guys were only 3 hours away from me! If you guys ever open up to the public I would love to be able to walk around this place you're building in all these videos!

I was thinking the same thing . A bunch of people could make a real 1800s period town . Working replica of working together in the town or area out in the county .

Green ash used or was out heated/ steamed?

I like that old skool.anvil.. plus the rig for the meat that was roasted...

Been wondering, in the evening when the oven is cooling down. Would it be possible to make a wooden rack to dry jerky?

Looked like a giant beehive form at first. :) the roast looked really good also btw.

how long was the entrance to the oven? (i know its 15 x 15) but what was the length or depth
we saw him mark off where it was going to sit.

That looks like modern fire brick to me.

The Chef is awesome.

What happens if the door is taller than the 60%?

It's like watching Minecraft irl and I'm learning history 😍

Hey.... what happened with this? If it failed it's no big deal! As an engineer and cook myself I just want to know what happened! What was your diagnosis? If it works GREAT! If it doesn't, no big deal, just let just know from your experience what you think went wrong. This channel is great and I LOVE IT!!
