Put the key stone in place on top
of a stable 12 1/2”-13” support.
In order to ensure that the lower
surface is at the same level as the
inside of the roof, use a support
of fixed length on top of a few
removable pieces (shown here)
to allow for keystone height
adjustments.
The pieces of each Le Panyol
oven core are handcrafted and
thus vary slightly in size and
orientation. When stacking the
core, structural integrity is much
more important than a perfect fit
and “seamless” oven cavity.
Each voussoir’s uniqueness
enhances your oven’s
performance. Joints between
oven elements allow for minor
expansion and contraction
during the heating and cooling
cycles.
