Nice pics! Could you take a picture with a dollar bill or a beer can among the coal so we can get an idea how big the chunks are? :D

I'll try when I get a chance. Those aren't real big. Softball to football size. Some mixed in there that's beer can size. I hosed it off real well and stacked it up in some homemade cheap bins I made to keep dust outta the house.

That's mighty nice looking bit coal. If I ever get around to buying a hand fired stove I may have to try burning some. But only if the hopper is removable. I forgot to ask if the Keystoker HF Hopper stove has a removable hopper.
