Jim, These photos are from a customer* in North Carolina.

I called the customer, who had some complaints about the "kit". He made it work but was reluctant to be any part of our using his pictures to promote our product. His main complaint was that the
oven components did not fit together well. In particular the
tunnel didn't fit into the dome well, leaving gaps as much as two or
three inches which they filled with brick and mortar. Also the
flue opening in the 18" tunnel was cut toward the dome side of
the tunnel rather than the entrance side which made it impossible to
push the door far enough back to close off the flue.
I agree that the flue should be toward the front as shown in the
picture of the prototype at http://www.rumford.com/oven/index.htm
although I may have thought differently at one point, thinking the
flue and tunnel edge had to be covered with 4" of brick.
