I have not seen a successful ear...I agree with you. I have not seen a successful earthen oven on a trailer. I have seen many different brick ovens with a cement/stucco like plaster that look very beautiful and organic in shape that survive may years on trailers. I do believe also that some re-bar or other steel is used in the process as well. Perhaps an air ride equipped trailer could haul an earthen oven around, but it may require using some materials with a greater tensile strength like sticks or bamboo inside the layers of clay and sand. <br />Someone should give it a try and see how it holds up. We could potentially be underestimating the strength of a good clay sand straw mixture. <br />Thanks for the post,<br />CCATCCAT (Campus Center for Appropriate Technology)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16658097947875442055noreply@blogger.com
