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 broken (left mouse) and replaced with bare hands. No tools are required to break/remove the forge.

[[Metal|metal]] can be worked when it is heated to a temperature above 60% of its 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. As of version 1.12, rain will also extinguish a forge.
