Sand Layer and Firebrick Floor: As Picture 5 shows, I have left about an inch for sand layer on which the firebricks will rest. This layer makes it a lot easier to level the firebricks.

Many web sites recommend laying the firebricks at 45 degree angle. I believe that is the correct way to lay firebricks to minimize the possible catching with the Pizza Peel. However that requires cutting the bricks at angles. I choose not to do that; effort vs. reward debate.
I am very pleased with the way floor turned out. I tapped the bricks with the rubber mallet while checking for level constantly. Additionally, I ran my hand over the bricks and felt for any "lips".
