Went with a gas forge over coal after 15 years of solid fuel work

I made the switch to a gas forge last spring because my shop setup in a residential area couldn't handle the smoke any longer, and honestly the temperature control has been a game changer for finer work like leaves and scrolls. Has anyone else found that gas lets you hold an even heat better for those tight-curl details?

Wait fifteen years on coal and you just now switched? That's wild, man, I couldn't handle the smoke and mess for more than a couple years before I bailed.

Yeah the smoke was part of my signature scent apparently.
