Making tandoor with their hands

Life on "their land" is unthinkable without the gatherings in the noisy company. Barbecues, birthday parties, anniversaries, or simply meeting with your friends, without cause, to talk heart to heart, involves the preparation of tasty and varied food. Our portal has already told me how to cook barbecue right, and provides examples of outdoor furnace systems. We continue to "tasty" compilation. FORUMHOUSE today to share with your readers the secrets of self-production of the tandoor, built by the user with the nickname Legas02.

Construction tandoortheir own hands

Before we move on to a description of the stages of construction tandoor, Zabierzow forward and immediately show dishes smoky cooked in it.

Legas02 (User FORUMHOUSE):

I used to think how you can cook rice, the rice turned out crumbly, and each risinka was separate from each other. It turns out that everything is simple - it is necessary to make a tandoor and cooked in a cauldron on it pilaf. It turned out great!

After a delicious seed will talk about how to build a tandoor. Shows construction experience, in any case it all starts with an idea and desire. once

Legas02 I watched a video where the guys in the three pairs of hands directly on a pallet of bricks, a few minutes add up tandoor. At first glance, it seems that to do something like this is easy and simple, but as you go deeper into the topic tandyrostroeniya, Legas02 I wanted to build a more serious building, and not a "makeshift." Especially because, at the user's words, everyone who obzavolsya "adult" tandyr only praising dishes cooked in it.

So, first we prepare the ground for the future tandoor where then pour the foundation. Moreover, to treat this case we must also seriously and responsibly, as well as any construction without dividing the stages of work on the responsible and irresponsible, where it is possible to fake.

Carefully made base - is the key to a long and trouble-free service life of any structure.

I agree that it would be a shame if, after the rainy or winter tandoor "will float", or buckling, or cracked walls.

Legas02:

Dug area measuring 3x3 meters. Black earth turned into two bayonet spade. Then he went to the clay. As soon as it got to the bottom, the bottom of the pit to sleep sand layer.

Rebounding from a base size, the user thought, what size should turn itself "pitcher" tandoor, and what it erect. In terms of efficiency, it is cheaper to buy the most common - red brick, but from the point of view performance tandoor, it is necessary to use a special - refractory, which is 4 times more expensive.

To make the right choice, remember the proverb that the avaricious pays twice and unjustified savings can later lead to costly repairs and alterations.

Having defined the pictures, Legas02 started manufacturing foundation for the tandoor. Moreover, high-grade stone tandoor - a rather heavy construction, requires a suitable base. The whole work is divided into a series of sequential steps:

• We produce formwork (1.5x1.5 m) that the user has installed on roofing felt (for waterproofing).
• We do reinforcement.
• Poured concrete.

Concreting of the foundation Legas02 I used the so-called Concrete-samomes that justified by pouring a relatively small structures, which are disadvantageous for the manufacturing order mixer. This article explains in detail, how to make their own concrete samomesny.

Plate thickness turned out to 30 cm.

After that, there was a question about the diameter of the tandoor and in general, what design to realize? To simplify the problem Legas02 I went the following way - bought a kettle and door-flap and drove the tandoor for their size. Those. kettle Set the upper part of the "pitcher" and the door - opening for ash.

For calculations of brick barrel-shaped "jug" tandoor, improvised - a pair of rails and plywood do a simple pattern - the so-called "sail".

Legas02:

In the center of the plate, I made a hole in it hammered the pin and the bottom of the template to drill the hole for the pin. How does the "Sail", is well understood in the following photos.

The solution is also used for laying a refractory. That bricks do not fall apart until the solution hardens, each row is pulled together with wire.

To pass the bend, the bricks pililis half, and further work was carried halves before entering the cone.

Among the features of the tandoor can be identified that the floor is not laid out firebrick bottom row started directly from the concrete slab. according to Legas02, problems with the stove will not, because a large mass of concrete difficult to warm up, and tandoor is not used every day, and most of the heat goes up. Good practice tandoor use fully confirmed these assumptions.

Laying of bricks "pitcher", the user has decided to further smear his clay, to increase the heat storage capacity of structures. Plus, with the possible formation of cracks, the clay of their hides.

Despite the seeming simplicity of working with clay, it is a difficult material requiring specific knowledge. No wonder the secrets of the art of pottery passed from generation to generation.

Legas02:

Smear clay. The beauty! Soft, compliant and, most importantly, - free, but when dry it all goes cracks. Moreover, gloss over some, but there are others. Although before starting work, I read a lot of material to work with clay, but I would not have taken over the production of "jug" tandoor entirely of clay.

Theme of manufacturing tandoor received a wide response from our users. Received advice - avoid cracks "reinforce" the clay. For example, camel hair (the old) or fiberglass (this option was dropped due to high temperature). As a result, for ease of use Legas02 I did not reinforce the clay as it is necessary only for the accumulation of heat, and will continue to be produced tandoor insulation and decorative finishing. This will hide any cracks, so why complicate the process?

At this stage, the tandoor already gained shape and began to resemble the familiar to all the construction. To speed up the drying (due to rain) in the "jug" lit a small fire. Here the main thing - do not get involved in the process, bringing construction to full power, driving it to high temperatures, otherwise the clutch can burst.

For warming tandyr wrapped insulated and fixed its metal mesh, which is used for plaster facades.

Along the way, Legas02 I began to prepare the area around the tandoor for laying paving slabs homemade.

Next tandoor decided to heat really. It revealed a problem. Top made of a refractory mixture is cracked. And fallen off whole chunks.

Legas02 :

Place the top to get the most heat-loaded, that's the result. I suppose that the solution is not fully dried out, and under the influence of high temperature steam began to come out. How to solve this problem, I put aside "for later", and now began to spread around the box tandoor.

Because tandoor turned in a barrel, and the box - a square, you need to fill the void. It must also be made to reduce heat loss. Moreover, the material for filling should allow the body to "pitcher" to "breathe". Because when heated it expands and when cooled again reduced in size. Came to mind such Charging heat insulating material such as haydite.

Expanded clay filled by the neck, then poured on top of the stove-table.

It remains only to make the decor, lay tile, and tandoor ready for use.

For the preparation of pre-cooked vkusnyashek user multiple devices.

In finishing tandoor most crucial moment refused decorating plates-table. After all, it is the "face" of the entire structure, and it will be judged on the aesthetics of the whole structure.

Favorite option - monolithic stone countertops, dropped out for economic reasons, and wait, they will do on the side, it will bring, and then how to put a heavy item, Legas02 did not want.

As a result, hardware store turned up tiles. The user has selected an option with a large circular pattern. Further, he cut a hole at the neck tandyra. Tile fell, like a glove.

Finishing stage was laying paving slabs. For this platform around the tandoor sprinkled with sand and rammed. Laid tiles covered with sand and spilled water. It is necessary to fill in all the cracks. On FORUMHOUSE have a detailed article, which describes how to properly laid paving slabs.

Summing up, we say that a careful approach, even the first pancake is not lumpy. Operation tandoor showed that food cooked in it, obtained a delicious, mouth-watering, and his "highlight". Because Tandoor top cover, it does not fill with rain, and most importantly - a building was a center of attraction for the whole family, friends and guests!
