The good news it that all this can be reused. The mix was a good mix, which held up unprotected in all weather for two nearly three full winters it caved in this spring when the snow melted. The frustrating news is that I am having a hard time finding pumice, perlite, or vermiculite for the insulating layer. I am thinking I will have to use the old bricks taken from our airtight kitchen wood stove, because when I received the new ones I was shocked to find they were very light, so I am figuring they serve the same purpose in the stove as we want for the oven. AND the biggy! it has not stopped raining for nearly two weeks, the only sunny day called for is sunday. So the cob party we have planned for Saturday to do the oven is looking dismal. It will be do'able if it is warm and wet rather than cold and wet like today.
