Editing and processing assembly video right now.  It took me appx 22 minutes.

[Free Mr. Tony]

The stone does go all the way to each side, so the entire surface of the square is usable.  Or did you want to know the length from L to R?

I believe they're referring to clearance from stone to oven top. As in, does it slope down from center to sides on the interior top, or is it flat all the way across? Apologies if I'm not understanding correctly.

Assembly Video of the Uuni 3.  Not a tough assembly.  You will see my frustration regarding the stone and the one piece of hardward...Maybe when I look at it, it will be out of sequence, but I do not know how one was supposed to know that piece was supposed to go o top of the unit.  That was the only issue, they rest was very straight forward.

Assembly video posted.

There is a small slant towards the top of the sides, you can see the slant in the video, will not cause an issue I do not think!

Dough is rising right now...and will then be put in fridge.  My sister Karen's birthday dinner tomorrow, so may not get around to any cooking till Saturday.  May try another video of burn in today!  Don't quote me on that!

The first post on other Thread under Technical specification: It says "Max clearance above stone: 11 cm / 4.3”

Just wanted to know if it is that high on the Left and Right sides cook door or is that the middle.

I loved watching this as much for putting a voice/character to your name as well as the actual assembly.

I'll now hear your posts in your voice.

That was nicely done.
You made it look pretty easy.

Well, I tried cooking one last night.  Small unit, a peel that has no handle.  Complete disaster.  I decided to scratch that video!

I spent 10 minutes cleaning the stone.  I am going to look at their videos and try and see if I can master the heat or at least figure it out, best I could do was high 600°'s.  I am posting this here and not in the PR because I do believe a company deserves the benefit of the doubt on learning curve and this is still a record of the PR.  The fire has a black smoke to it, that sooty, black, incomplete wood combustion smoke, made the corners of the stone dark.  So it is videos, fire management and trying to learn how to keep a wet dough from sticking on a stainless steel peel.  I made & cooked pizza's 38 years ago, how hard can it be?

Did you have to bleep out any audio on that video?

It would have sounded like one long beep...Larry would not have been proud!

This is what I wondered/worried about - how they get a clean burn with no forced air flow!?!

I wonder if you put a very small fan blowing into the back of the fire chamber, if the combustion would be better. I dont think it would need much. But that is not the design of the manufacturer either. Maybe a fan would help it get started and would not be needed once the fire is going good. The videos I watched said they let it burn for 20 or 30 minutes before checking the temperature. I would think the front door would need to be closed that entire time to reach the higher temperatures. Just a few observations/suggestions of things I would try. You probably already did some of them, but the fan would be something I would try to help it along.

[Bentley]

Maybe.
Yes, a reason why I do not want to do it, but new owner may.
The Uuni ones say about 3-5, then add the additional.  But it maybe time to look for the real world videos. And yes to the front door, I guess with it closed, that is how the convection is produced to keep fuel lit and disperse heat.

Well darn, I wanted to hear the bleep.

With triple glazed doors fully shut, you could hear the whole rant.  Mom would have fainted at the language.
