Due to health reasons and stuck with a walker and lack or strength in general. I have around 1000 lbs of coal maybe more as I have not counted them. A Crane 404 with a cracked window, I do have 2 spare window and new gasket for glass and door. I don't know iif this is better in the for sale section or here is ok.

What is the coal size? I'll assume bagged Blaschak?

We can run this thread here due to the subject matter.

Thanks for the kind words. The coal is bagged nut. 404 has about a " bow in the firebox.

The important thing is taking care of yourself, even after getting out it will still be nice to hear from you from time to time. Hope it's OK with all for making that point!

Alright,DD,help a knucklehead out ! When You're saying it has a "bow" in the firebox,are You saying that there's some kind of warp on the grates ?

Aside from all that,C'mon Eastcoasters ! Let's see what You can do for a Guy from Mystic who's in a Wee-Bit of a Toughspot.......

And a final footnote : DD,I know You'll still be able to fly a keyboard and a mouse. Try to remember that once You've washed up on this beach,You're marooned forever,Here,in the Coal Zone !!

best wishes ddahlgren, your a pleasure always!

@Bob, he means the lift out cast iron liner has a slight warp in it (usable, safe, but at some point that warp will prevent ability to remove it without breaking it out).

Thinking about 2.50 a bag for nut bagged and 150 for the 404 with 2 new panes of glass and new gaskets for glass and door. I am guessing 30 to 40 bags and a couple of pallets.
