The helve hammer is used for automated [[smithing]], and is used to automate processes such as working [[bloomery|iron blooms]] and making metal plates. The helve hammer can only be used to process iron blooms into ingots, and to produce iron plates. Helve hammers can also repair iron blooms that are missing voxels due to user error.

Helve hammers require mechanical power to run properly, and can be quite taxing for the power settup. For more info on power generation & power trains, see [[Mechanical Power|mechanical power]]. With a full complement of sails, the helve hammer will function, albeit slowly, at wind speeds as low as 30%.
