JMartin Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Hey guys, I am new to the area and I'm looking for a source for good coal. Also, I was just curious if there are any smiths anywhere near Crab Orchard NE? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don A Posted March 17, 2009 Share Posted March 17, 2009 Your first name ain't Josh, is it? (thought JMartin mighta been an alias). If not, I need to hook you up with another new arival to SE NE that's just getting started. Mean while, check here:Prairie Blacksmiths Association : ABANA (Artist Blacksmith Association of North America) affiliate. Ask around this forum for "Irnsrgn"; he lists his location as "Extreme Southeast, Nebraska" and as member of the above organization. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMartin Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 Thanks Guys, I will check out the sources you listed. Neb. City is closest, so I'll try there first. And Yes, its me Don A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Thompson Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Josh, Sid is THE place for coal in Nebraska. You should also look to join the PBA.(Prarie Blacksmith Association). They are having a hammer-in just down the road from you in Filley Ne. on April 18th and 19th. More info can be found here: Prairie Blacksmiths Association : ABANA (Artist Blacksmith Association of North America) affiliate. . Harlan is a good guy and you'll have fun there. Have fun, John P.S. I second the notion of talking to Jr.(Irnsrgn). He lives in Falls City, and is very busy, but what he could teach you will take years off of the learning curve.
