Thanks to Scott, from irondesigniowa.com, the studio dragon has her first bling!
I epoxied (JB-Weld) three small rare earth magnets to the bricks above the door.
After allowing them to dry I attempted to hang my dragon, unfortunately it weighed just a bit to much and would not stay in place.
This morning I took out three more magnets, and stuck them to the epoxied magnets.
My new dragon snapped into place and does not move!
The deep red paint stands out from the brick red enough that I did not choose to give it a black background.

Not to be outdone, Liz has chosen a silhouette to hang on "her" side!
It is on order and expected to arrive soon.

Looks fantastic Tom. Now the hard work... cleaning off the rest of the mortar residue.

Indeed I do!
And a huge job it is! (As you well know!)
But with clay mortar, it is not hard, just time consuming.

Hi Anne,
Thank you, Yes, that is the official Dragon Tech logo.
Scott did an outstanding job creating it.
I'm proud to display it on the Studio Dragon.

Thanks Tom for all your excellent promotion work and show casing the bling.

Some of asked,

How long have I done? Nearing 20 years now
Have things changed? Absolutely, with now very intense colors and coatings
Fonts? Anything and everything
Limits? Not many. unless you want alum, brass or gold

Just an example of last winters work, I do 10's of dozens in the winter, in a room next to my 7 inch rocket stove. Detailed below.
