Good Afternoon From South Africa, its been a while since I have been on the forum but keep an eye on the threads for things I may require.

today I need to ask for some advice regarding coal / anthracite storage, I have read that broken Anthracite weighs about 1.1tons per 38cf (cubic meter), I have had a quote to build a galvanised bin on legs 500mm above ground with a cone shapped bottom with gated schute to load straight into a pail.

my question are there any images someone could direct me to to see a design of something similar please. I am in a residential area so need to keep the anthracite as tidy as I can in one corner or I would have just set up 3 walls and shovel from the drop point
