Im happy to share it!Homesteader wrote: ↑Thu. Jun. 22, 2017 8:57 am I also want to thank you for sharing the process with us. Now when I look at my pile of black Lehigh rocks I'm getting an idea of what it takes to mine them.

I really like Lehigh coal, I have had no issues with the rice or the nut. The Harman is finicky, any stones/impurities will jam the grates and it tends to get ash bound with high ash coal.

Nice looking load of rice. I'll be getting 6 tons within the next couple weeks. Not going to visit NEPA to get it though. The Mill farm store near me sells Lehigh bulk. Yes I'll pay a little more per ton but save the time, wear and tear on the vehicle. Plus I'd have to make 2 trips to haul 6 tons.

He took some, he was just here yesterday. He did say he will get all the photos to me in a few weeks. He just shared these few at this time.
