The raw material used to create the tool head determines the crafting process required:  

* [[Casting]] (100 units): Copper and Bronze alloy  

* [[Smithing]] (1 ingot): Iron, Bronze alloy, copper (silver and gold)

The hammer is the primary tool used in the crafting method [[smithing]]. Pressing the Left Mouse button "hits" the metal item on an [[anvil]] and changes the shape and location of voxels in the metal ingot based on the selected tool mode.

Press 'F' with a hammer in the active hand to view and change tool modes.  

* Spread: (sunburst) spreads metal in all directions over three blocks,   

* Cut: (wedge icon) removes a voxel of metal.

Press 'F' with a hammer in the active hand to view and change tool modes.

Hammers are not used to harvest materials, but are used to crush chunks of stone containing ores (mined with a [[pickaxe]]) and obtain smeltable nuggets.

Attacking a mob (melee combat): place the tool in an active hotbar slot and press or hold left mouse button to strike the target.

Place the hammer in the grid crafting slot above the item to be crushed. When using the hammer and [[chisel]], generally the hammer is placed above the chisel, and the material to be processed is placed below the chisel. Removing the (product) from the output slot of the grid uses the tool(s). When complete, remove the tool from the grid, or close the interface by pressing 'E' to replace the tool into an available space in the inventory or hotbar. (If a slot is not available, pressing 'E' will discard the item(s) on the ground.)
