To smelt metal into ingots you need to create [[ingot mold]]s and a [[crucible]]. Crucibles are containers that hold molten metals and ingot molds hold those metals in their liquid form to allow them to cool into the shape of an ingot. Once you have crafted both a crucible and at least one ingot mold you must create a fire pit in order to heat them to a burned state. Once you have done this you can use them to create your ingots. | To smelt metal into ingots you need to create [[ingot mold]]s and a [[crucible]].

Now that you have your shiny new ingots it's time to put them to use. But you won't be able to use them in their hardened form. You'll need to heat them up to a temperature which makes them malleable, so you can hammer them into shape. | |||
First create a [[forge]]. You need this to heat the ingots. You need to fill the forge with coal. Then light the coal with a torch. Place the ingots on the lit coal and let them heat up. Once heated, right click to grab one and head on over to your anvil. Place the hot ingot on the anvil and you will see a tool recipe menu pop up. Select which tool you would like to smith. Then select your hammer. Press the 'F' key to change smithing modes. Each mode allows you to hammer the hot metal in one direction or another. The recipe grid will show you which way you need to hammer. | |||
