Do you still plan a 3' cube or have you decided to go bigger?

Bigger is better

Re: New Thread: Bought Cement Board N Studs :Pics:

Proboly like 5' high and like the width of that board as the width of the oven.

Re: New Thread: Bought Cement Board N Studs :Pics:

That will be big enough to do alot of different things.

I still dont know how I am going to arrange the studs and stuff. Like I dont have a plan yet. any ideas?

Re: New Thread: Bought Cement Board N Studs :Pics:

Fabrication is sometimes difficult orally. I would build the frame to put the cement boards into. They'll be screwed to the frame. The steel studs are constructed by cutting with tin snips and screwing or pop riveting together. If you need help with the stud placement, give me the dimensions of the studs and I can CAD a pic for you. SS

Bolt angle iron ( the stuff with holes and slots in it) on the outside of each edge. Then attach the next section in the same way.

The timber studs are a bad idea, I think

Don't forget to clad the outside with insulation, otherwise there will be considerable heat loss.

Right now I have the cement board on the outside. I may put insulation in the middle and cover it up with new cement board but I am not sure. And yea the side on the left is 2 inches shorter because im a 15 year old who really cant measure too good.Here are some updated pictures:

Looks good!
Put hinge on the door, then glue stryofoam board to the outside of the oven.
You are on the right path. 15 yrs old? Good work young man!

Do you have AIM I can talk to you on?

Re: New Thread: Bought Cement Board N Studs :Pics:

Will the stryofoam board keep the heat insulated on the outside?

Re: New Thread: Bought Cement Board N Studs :Pics:

You might look at a 1.5" piano hinge for the door. They also call it continuous hinge. It will handle the weight better and give the door better support. I know guys that are a lot older than you that have trouble measuring. Remember the old saying measure twice, cut once. SS
