First Fire in Harman MK III

Used the charcoal/coffee can method talked about on the forum and in about 40 minutes, had a rip roaring coal fire, except in the corners. Opened the draft back up and they finally caught fire too.

Burning Blashack Nut.

Have the draft open 1 full turn.

Baro set at .06 inches.

Lets see how long it will last. Plan to shake and reload about bed time, 10 pm for us old folks!

I bet it will hold until morning no problem.

Thanks to all for the guidence and suggestions. Lit right up on the first try!

Good going!!
That charcoal/coffee can method is the one I'm using from now on too.

I think this first fire deserves a picture or two posted here!

Let Wife use camera...Camera now broken!

Imagine that.

Well with the sweet deal you got on that stove and the ton of coal, you can buy a new camera.
