your clay liner is the best there is for coal. Even the best stainless will only last about 25 - 30 years, where as a clay liner will last well over 100 years with coal.

Glad to here of your purchase. How about a picture or two? If the ad for this came up two weeks sooner. I would have picked it up. I am only about 30 minutes from Wales, MA.

Have fun and post some pictures.

It's true.

I'm about 1-10min to the same area "Munson". I'm 1-1/2 to Boston and 40min tops to Worcester, so we always figured anything due north of Stafford Springs speedway was central to west Mass. we use that route for the senic way to go up to Springfield too.
So province town is Eastern Mass, Worcester is Central and so on.....got it.
