Grinding wood charcoal

My buddy and I ground a couple bags of lump charcoal today for me to use in casehardening. I mixed 2 five gallon pails of ground lump charcoal with 1 pail of bone charcoal. That should do me for a while now. Check out this little video showing the grinding process.

I am a hobby gunsmith by night and teach at a University by day. I love taking old basket case but classic rifles and breathing new life into them. I do have a Ph.D. but it is in feed processing and nutrition and nothing to do with classic rifles but some of my friends call me the gun doctor for bringing these pieces back to life. I especially enjoy some of the old school methods like bone charcoal color casehardening.
