senstrom Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 live in southern indiana so i know im not far from the coal mines in kentucky, does anyone know a good source in this area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Cochran Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) I'd suggest asking locally, the results will be much better. I put an ad on Craigslist mentioning I was looking for some and within a week I had multiple responses from people telling me where they get theirs and one from a guy who sells it by the 5 gallon bucket.

Frosty Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Seriously, you're asking an internationally read forum about a local product. Have you tried the phone book? A coal company? Farrier or heaven's forbid a blacksmith supply?Blacksmiting requires at least a little self reliance. You live in coal country!Frosty The Lucky.

Dave51B Posted July 21, 2015 Share Posted July 21, 2015 senstrom, The last I picked up in April, I think was $12 for 50 lb.bag or $310 a ton for bulk. If I remember right. The size was a little large for my preference but, no biggie. You might want to call before you make the trip. 812-636-7880.....That's about all I got for ya....

Daniel S Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 If you go on Saturday, they close at or before 11am. You can buy at the bulk price if you take buckets or barrels. Like Dave said, calling ahead is a good idea. Not everybody that works there will know about the coal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
