== Description ==
''A forge made from stone bricks and clay, intended for smelting and smithing.''
== Method ==Activate the A '''forge''' is a [[stone brickmasonry]], right-click the furnace used for smelting [[clay:Category:Ores|metal ore]], heating items, smithing, and select ''Create > Containers > forge''. The unfinished forge will drop in front of you on the ground. Right-click it with either another clay or stone brick activated, hardening items such as [[pottery]] and choose ''Continue building''[[key mould]]s.
:* The first lump of clay you use when starting the forge will be completely consumed, no matter how big it is.:* Subsequent clay can be taken from a single big lump piece by piece. However, the lump will become progressively more damaged if you fail attaching it.== Creation ==
== Burn time ==* The unfinished forge will drop in front of you on the ground.* Right-click the unfinished forge with another [[clay]] or [[brick]] activated and select ''Continue building''.* Subsequent clay can be taken from a single large lump piece by piece. However, the lump will become progressively more damaged if you fail to attach it.* A rendered forge requires 1 extra [[clay]] to build.
The quality level of a forge affects both how long it stays lit for and how long it takes to heat up items.== Usage ==
A 74 quality forge will burn * Used for smelting [[:Category:Ores|metal ore]] into lumps.* Used for heating items.* Used for roughly 2 hours 40 minutes with 20kg of woodscrapshardening items such as [[pottery]] and [[key mould]]s. It will burn * Can be used for between 30 [[cooking]], though forges add 10 difficulty to the recipe being cooked.* To light the forge, activate a [[steel and 40 minutes with only flint]] while carrying [[kindling]], right-click the initial lighting forge, and no additional select ''Light''.* To fuel the forge, activate any [[fuel]] item, right-click the forge, and select ''Burn''.* Fuel can also be placed inside the forge, allowing fire damage to burn it.
A QL 50.01 forge using 20kg of ~QL 1 woodscraps stayed lit for 117 minutes (Tested 6/13/2012 on the Celebration Server).=== Burn time ===
== Usage ==*Smelting The [[:Category:Ores | metal orequality]] into lumps*Heating up items*Hardening items like and [[potteryrarity]] or [[key mould]]sof a forge affects both how long it stays lit and how long it takes to heat items.*A 74 quality forge will burn for roughly 2 hours and 40 minutes with 20 kg of [[Cookingfuel]]. - ''Note'': With lower cooking skill* A 60 quality forge will burn for about 30 minutes with 1 kindling, it which is better enough time to use a [[stone oven]] allow cleaning for cooking, because it adds less difficulty in [[mealash]]s. In contrast, those with high cooking skill might prefer the increased skill gain of cooking with a forge.
To light up a forge, put a [[kindling]] in your inventory, activate a [[steel and flint]], right-click the forge and select ''Light''.== Notes ==
== Tips ==* Only 20 kg of [[fuel]] is needed at a time, ; any more is unnecessary. * The QL of fuel does not seem to affect burning time.
* Put items in [[cauldron]]s or [[backpack]]s inside the forge to allow it to hold more items.
* A forge will hold 7 cauldrons8 [[cauldron]]s.
* A forge will hold at most 28 ore.
* Metal scraps will cool much faster than usual in an unlit forge, regardless of the forge QL.* Items that can be [[Fuelfuel|burned]] like [[rags]], such as [[tar]] or wooden items , will take damage in forges once they are almost searing hot. * If the burned item can be repaired, it will lose QL but show no damage.* Items can be placed on top of the forge, if there is enough room, and will be heated if the forge is hot.* Wooden or otherwise flammable items placed on the forge will be burned.* Any fuel source can be burned in the forge for fuel.* Can be loaded with a [[wagon]] or a [[large cart]] runed with a zinc [[rune]] of Magranon.* The forge takes up a little more space than 3 large crates.* Planted forges will not take damage on deeds.* Can be cleaned of [[ash]] with an activated [[shovel]].
