I suppose what I’m asking is in the event that they have been treated, am I to get rid of the furniture I’ve made?


As you say, there’s no way of telling, but if there’s a potentiality that’s the wood is off gassing carcinogens into the air then obviously I’d get rid of the items.


I don’t have anymore of the wood; the wood in question are projects from a few years ago. I only use untreated now. 


What could it have potentially been treated with? Is there more than one way the wood would be treated?

It’s difficult to know the severity of the risk. For example, one site says even touching such wood can cause the chemicals to absorb into your skin and be very dangerous; but then how many people pick up such material with their bare hands at B&Q all the time?


Cheers.
