MrDarkNebulah Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hate to steal the thread, but anyone know a good source of coal near western CT? I asked some of the smiths near me but they either use gas or pick it up at the NEB meet which unfortunately I can't make it to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.morse Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 I have the same problem finding fuel here. I ordered coke though Centaur and it was great...just pricey at about a buck a pound w/shipping. I ended up getting "nut" coal from the local Tractor Supply store. It was only about $6 per 40 lb bag..........but is anthracite coal. Its greasy, smelly, and dirty, but it works. That corn suggestion sure has me thinking, I might have to try it. I know my Grandad made stuff from corn that burned well.....when it slid down your throat!!
