klickitat Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Does any one know where to pick up some good coal on the west side of Washington or even in the Portland, OR area? All I can get right now is heating coal and there is no way I will ever be able to weld with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

klickitat Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 thanks Glenn. The stuff I have been getting from Central Fuel in Chehalis is not what I would call quality blacksmithing coal. Tons of clinkers and rock. I use to get some of the prettiest stuff in the world from an outfit in Idaho but the drive would make it not worth it right now. I will check these other places out though. thanks again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted July 30, 2006 Share Posted July 30, 2006 You may want to contact Mike-hr (Or) or Coalforge (Wa) to see where they get their coal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nolano Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 I get my coal from the farrier's supply in Monroe, OR. Its excellent stuff. I bought some from Vally Farrier, but that was utter junk. some limestone got in with the coal and produced clinkers like you wouldnt believe.
