Just found out my main coal supplier is mixing in treated wood scraps

I got a batch last week that smelled weird when it burned, sort of chemical. Asked around and found out they're grinding up old pallets and construction wood to stretch the product. That stuff can put off nasty fumes when you forge with it, right? Have you all checked where your fuel is coming from lately?

My last batch smoked like a tire fire, never again.

That "nasty fumes" part reminds me of a buddy who got a lungful from treated wood.
