The '''forge''' is a functional block used to heat ingots to a temperature that allows [[smithing]] with a [[hammer]] on an [[anvil]]. 
__TOC__
==Creation==

The forge is created using 7 [[Stone Blocks#cobblestone|cobblestone]] blocks in the player's crafting grid. Once crafted, the forge may be placed as any other block onto a solid surface. The forge can be {{Breaking|broken}} and replaced with bare hands. No tools are required to break it.

==Usage==

Using the forge requires [[metal]] ingots, [[fuel]] and a [[torch]].

===Heating Ingots===
# {{SneakClick|Add}} [[coal]] or [[charcoal]] to the forge - note that the burn temperatures and length of the different coal fuel times do not matter in the forge, thus it is recommended to use the cheapest one - which might be charcoal or brown coal, depending on situation.
# {{SneakClick|Add}} ingots to the forge. The capacity of the forge is four ingots.
# {{SneakClick|Ignite}} the forge with a torch.
# Wait for the ingots to heat. As ingots heat, they will start to glow, and the ingot temperature is displayed in the forge dialog box.
# {{Using|Remove}} the ingot from the forge upon reaching the desired temperature.

[[Metal]] can be worked when ingots are heated to a temperature above 60% of the melting point. The forge will continue to heat items until all fuel is consumed. When the forge consumes all available fuel, it will be extinguished whether the ingots are heated or not. Rain will extinguish a forge.

'''Note:''' Items in a forge '''can not''' melt, even when heated beyond their melting point.
