Not Telling
ok now thats some infor I can use on the trees, the Sage here is short bushy type of tree not alot of leave or stems but grows very fast and just about impossible to kill, so its everywhere, and extreemly hard when dry, not so when its alive it will bend and darn near tye it in a knot with the branches.
I mainly looking to have lift powder for some 3in mortars
All my stars seem to work pretty well
on my ball mill what other mods do I need to do to it or am I better off at getting another type?? There is a heavy duty one on Ebay that always comes up says it can handle up to 35lbs so the motor and frame look pretty decent its the container I dont think is all that good, some have posted on using scheduel 80 PVC pipe and making a container out if it and those would be a snap to make or should I pass on that.

I guess I really made someone mad on my fist post so Im going to hope that this is the right place to ask this question, and yes im really new at this, after reading most of the post I have came to 2 reasons why people are making thier own charcoal well could be more than that 
the cost of buying the stuff is dirt cheap, but that could be the reason it is cheap and not worth using.
Or most here have access to these willow trees and it must the tree to make it from.
I have tried punching in Sage and Mesquite trees to see what would come up as far as those makeing good charcoal but no luck, so maybe I give it try, so the way you test this is buy grinding up the charcol from your source and see if you can light it and it produces the whooomph factor??
Also on ball mill I did get one of those 3lb chicago ones and it seem like it works fine, but then again most here are using something different, so what is it that I need to due to it to get a thumbs up??
$$$ is not much of a object I do like to get what is best for the job but I can build my own stuff ,if there is a post on this its not coming up in this websites search well maybe it is but it seems no matter what you search for it just brings up all the same subject and dosnt really narrow it down.
And brass for grinding media seems like 2 camps on it not sure which one I want to side with.
