I have completely removed my studio dragon and her solid piped mass.

That system has been in place since 2013.

Starting as an eight-inch J-Tube with a piped mass, it was upgraded to a 6″ Batchbox, still utilizing the original 8″ piped mass

Coming soon

A 6″ double skin bell, utilizing a first-generation Batchbox design

Construction is scheduled to begin in early October 2025

November 2025

A new, larger backing plate will be installed next spring to finish the job

The entire build can be seen here

The RA253ma tubing has been proven to last in extreme burning Batchboxes

I have a good supply of the RA253ma stubs in stock @ $60

I have decided to stop stocking the RA330 tubing.

The RA330 sheet metal is still available

Shorty Core

7-1-2024

Here at Dragon Technology we are proud to announce the first built in the USA

Peter Berg’s newest Batchbox design

The Shorty Core.

The core is complete and has been extensively test fired and cured in the DT Shop building.

The end of July we will move Shorty indoors and give her a proper bell to wear.

Here are links to the build https://permies.com/t/254283/Shorty-Core-Montana-Version-burn

In May of 2023, I badly broke my right wrist.

I have been unable to work in my shop for the last 9 months

Fireclay, bypasses, RA air tubes, and temp gauges will still be available.

Morgan Super Wool HT is also available

Contact me at dragontech@blackfoot.net about ordering RA330 sheet metal.

UPDATE

All steel prices have sharply increased.

Unfortunately, my steel-made product prices will reflect that.
