To lessen the chance of wasting pixels - and thus ingots - it is necessary to add one ingot, flatten it out and only then add the next - and so forth. The space on which the next anvil will be added is always the same, and the player can make sure that this space is flat and below the maximum height limit of the recipe, which is 6 pixels, or 3 ingots stacked. Keep in mind that a new ingot added will only fill in the empty pixels in that specific space, so it is recommended to keep the ingot place as flat as possible. The ingot will however rise with the rest, meaning it will be added ''on top'' of the current surface.<br><br>

An optimum way of smithing can be seen below, with the focus on keeping the "ingot landing space" as empty and flat as possible. However, keep in mind that this is the best way to save iron ingots, not the best way to save coal.

{{Protip
|Elevating the anvil on which the player crafts the new anvil parts might help checking for missing or misplaced pixels. Try putting the anvil on eye level, or digging a trench around it - this allows you to check the work item from the side. Pressing G to sit down has a similar effect.
