I also like charcoal for forging.
I make my own from scrap lumber with a 55 Gal barrel
Return is about 40% but I just lite it and leave it coming back in a hour or
so to put it out.

It seams I am constantly adding new charcoal to the forge when working but I
can easily forge weld with it.

I really like charcoal as a fuel, as I've mentioned before.
