New Brick Oven Page on MHA-Net.Org
At the recent Wilacres meeting, John Rousseau asked if we could do anything more
to promote bake ovens at MHA, since everybody agrees that this is becoming a
very popular market for heater masons.
After some reflection, it dawned on me that there is already a great Brick Oven
Page, on my own Masonry Stove Builders site. It is there mainly just for fun, since
ovens are only a small part of my business, mostly on the consulting end. The Brick
Oven Page
gets by far the largest number of hits of
any page on my site, or the MHA site. As a matter of fact, it gets as much traffic
as all of the pages on the MHA site combined, with about 1000 page views per day.
So, a cloned copy now resides on the MHA site. A couple of things have been re-arranged.
The main difference is the removal of the links to commercial oven manufacturers
and dealers, except for ones that are MHA members. Hopefully, this will encourage
a few more manufacturers to kick in some MHA dues in return for some great
publicity.
Check it out, and send me your comments. I'll try to incorporate as many changes
as are doable, and that there seems to be a consensus for. I'll add it to the Mall
in due time, where it had previously resided up until about 4 years ago.
