This evening upon returning I gave her a new load.
When I returned home I found the outer bricks starting to change color.
It may take a week or two but a sure sign the drying process is well on the way.

Today we started using firebricks on the inner bell.
Gerry now has 22 layers of the outer skin almost completed.
Tomorrow, we will fit a 4" bypass pipe through both skins, it will be wrapped in superwool to seal where it passes through the inner and outer skins.
A four inch 90 will attach to the chimney pipe. It will utilize the same style of bypass that we installed on Shorty core.
Soon we will be welding up T-bars to support the firebrick roof, and the clay bricks above that.
Very soon now a new Dragon will be seen in Sanders county

Firebricks are larger than the clay bricks) 9" x 4.5" x 2.5" vs. 8" x 4" x 2 1/4", laying them flat would supply more mass, the overhang inside is not a problem.
After looking over my firebrick supply, we decided that there might not be enough on hand.
Rather than adding a trip to Missoula for more firebricks, I chose to have Gerry stand them on edge.
With #6000+ of bricks, the Studio Dragon is a big girl already.
She will surpass Shop Dragon and Shorty Core in heat retention.

I'm not sure if I will hang the red side or the black side.
Currently, I'm considering painting a square of bricks black and using the red side for display.
