Simple, it's a one-time use oven.
FTFY: Wood fired pizza oven.
FTFY: Pizza ovened fire wood.
I occasionally see bricks for sale in gumtree. Leftovers from construction. Normally $1-2 per brick or less if buying the whole pallet.
Ok.
Not exactly the same thing aesthetically but if you don't want to pump out a whole lot of smoke and ash, these have pretty decent reviews:

You'll need clay bricks. Normal bricks will crack fairly quickly in the heating and cooling of an oven.
I would not use wood because wood burns.
Wood makes terrible pizzas. I make mine out of ovens.
Not flour?
I would not use flour to make wood.
You can use your normal oven grill :New york Pizza on grill making four new york style pizzas for >$15 ingredients. Aldi also makes this Pizza oven Link I am sure some people will be selling their one on Gumtree etc.
I saw a video where he used a large terracotta pot to make a wood-fired pizza oven. there is something about the shape that helps with the heat.
I wanted to do this a while ago,but I never actually did. Most of the advice was you shouldn't use normal bricks. Fire bricks are very expensive usually 20-30 dollars each. The entire thing is not made from fire bricks only part of it. There is also a special mortar and it is recommended to insulate the thing. It was going to cost about 2 thousand for what I wanted and would have been cheaper to get a premade one. I was able to source some cheap fire bricks from gum tree, there are fire bricks in old combustion heater.
So you mean something like this DIY pizza oven?
the video shows the base being built out of a perlite/cement mix and smoothed out, but you should be able to pickup some refractory/firebricks from and outdoor/landscaping supplies place.
i needed a handful of firebricks a couple of years ago and got them from my local for about $6 each.Are these guys anywhere near you?
Will normal bricks really crack though? My parents had a fireplace that was made of normal bricks, I was hoping to buy some cheap bricks from gumtree and build one, I'd go double layer to be safe.
A colleague of mine bought clay bricks. He spent about $750 to make it.
He said that, as long as you buy used clay bricks, the bricks won't crack, but if you use concrete they will. He paid about $2 a brick.
You need some proof-reading.
Edit: sorry that was rude. you want to build a pizza oven (not wooden, wood burns) in your yard.
Start with looking on youtube, then start a discussion about materials you cannot find after looking in the obvious places.
