Two Giant Pizza Peels being created for Villa Victoria Pizzeria in New Jersey

Here are two more giant pizza peels being created for Villa Victoria Pizzeria in Montclair, New Jersey.

They are being made out of birch and have a 24 inch paddle with an 18 inch handle.
Creating the wide paddles is done by laminating boards together using wood biscuits to strengthen the edge joints. It is a time consuming process, but well worth it with the added strength that is received.







The gluing process has been completed and the cut to the basic shape. For added strength I always laminate a back board to the handle and the peel.

These peels will soon be handling the large 24 inch pizzas being created by Villa Victoria.






Now the sanding and shaping of the handle, peels and edges begins.
