I wonder if the guy stole a bunch of it off the power plant's coal cars... I didn't know you could even GET coal for heating in the Upper Midwewst. I thought the only people who used coal around here anymore were the power plants.

Power plants don't use bagged coal... I would say this guy is pretty legitimate if he has pallets of it (he offers a discount for buying pallet quantities).
 
While it is difficult to find ( I would probably burn it if I could and it was cheap) I posted the ad for the relative amount of BTU's. 13k btu for coal, and only 5-6k btu for wood.
 
That must be a two-man sawzall!

Hey, this must be an antique! I'm thinking it's got to be like one of those old logging chainsaws that are made to be operated by TWO men:

Man, I'd like to see the size of that thing! The extension cord must be what, 2 gauge copper? Or maybe you need one of those trailer mounted generators... :dizzy:



:D
 
40 AMP! Holy Cr@p :laugh:

Ignoramous question here: Since 30A circuits run on 10AWG wire, would 40A run on 8AWG?

Yes, generally, 40A will run on 8AWG. It really depends on a large number of factors. How long the cord is, whether it is in the wall vs. out in the open, duty cycle, etc. etc.

Most safety stuff / permits / that kind of stuff will give you a 2x to 4x safety margin.

I've got a 240V 50A welder. I pulled it open, and the wire from the switch to the transformer is 10AWG at best, and actually looks like 12AWG. It's been running like that for 30 years, and it still looks good. If you look at the open air current carrying capacity of wire, it is way higher than anyone in the inspection business will tell you.

Either way, I still comply with the local regs, but it does bug me sometimes.
 
Hopefully an extra zero?

to bad he is so far away i would offer to take it off his hands for free but the unimaginable things i do to junk cars would probbly make him cringe
 
Suppose that dude is a kolege grad?

I've seen a lot of people on the internet that are spelling challenged (don't worry if ya are, I won't pick on ya, there's a lot of smart people I learn from out there that just didn't learn a lot of what they know in class), but this guy takes the cake!
 
Funny, but I smell someone who's just having fun with a little bit of pseudo white-trash composition - probably trying to get listed on "Best of Craigslist."

Still, kinda funny.
