Firebricks were also used to make a ledge in front of the oven.

Full height, about 10 cm or 5 inches above the top of the hearth.
Just a paper fire for some flames and smoke to see how it works.

Filling completed.
Fayol say that 500 kg are needed, and we used around 400 kg to fill around the oven, and 100 kilos for making up cement.
