Editing 40d:Metalsmith's forge

[[Category:Workshops]]
The metalsmith's forge turns metal bars into various weapons, armors, furniture, siege ammunition, trap components, and other objects. To build a forge, you must have an anvil which you start with by default, using 1000 starting points.

-The '''metalsmith's forge''' is a [[workshop]] used by [[dwarf|dwarves]] to turn [[metal|metal bars]] into useful objects such as [[weapon]]s, [[armor]], [[furniture]], [[coin]]s, [[ammunition]] for [[siege]] equipment and [[crossbow]]s, [[trap component]]s, and other [[finished goods]]. To build a forge, you must have [[fire-safe materials]] and an [[anvil]], which you start with by default, using 1000 [[starting builds|starting points]]. All anvils are equally effective.
+==Other Objects==
+[[Crafts]] - Three crafts will be made from each metal bar used.<br />
-==Workshop labors and skills==
+[[Goblet]]<br />
-Several different types of items can be created at a metalsmith's forge; dwarves will need the correct type of [[labor]] enabled for each.  The labors used at a forge are:
+[[Toy]]<br />
+[[Instrument]]<br />
-*[[Weaponsmith|Weaponsmithing]] -- [[weapon]]s, [[trap]] components, [[bolt]]s, and [[ballista arrowhead]]s
+[[Flask]]<br />
-*[[Armorsmith|Armoring]] (armorer) -- [[armor]]
+[[Coins]]<br />
-*[[Metal crafter|Metalcrafting]] -- [[Restraint|chains]], and everything in the "Other Objects" category ([[craft]]s, [[coin]]s, [[goblet]]s, [[stud|studding]], etc.), except anvils
+----------
-*[[Trapping]] -- [[animal trap]]s (this is a long-standing quirk)
+[[Stud]]
-*[[Blacksmith|Blacksmithing]] -- All [[furniture]] except chains and animal traps; [[anvil]]s; [[block]]s
-== Weapons, trap components, and siege equipment ==
-[[Weapon]]s, [[trap component]]s, and [[ballista arrowhead]]s are all forged using the [[weaponsmith|weaponsmithing]] labor.  They can be forged from [[copper]], [[iron]], [[bronze]], [[bismuth bronze]], [[steel]], [[silver]] and [[adamantine]], each using the [[weaponsmithing]] labor.
-=== Weapons ===
-All weapons require one bar of metal.  The weapons that can be forged are:
-* [[Battle axe]]
-* [[War hammer]]
-* [[Short sword]]
-* [[Spear]]
-* [[Mace]]
-* [[Crossbow]]*
-* [[Pick]]*
-* [[Bolt]]s (a stack of 25 will be produced)
-<nowiki>*</nowiki> Crossbows and picks cannot be made out of [[silver]].
-=== Trap components ===
-All trap components require one bar of metal.  The trap components that can be made are:
-* [[Giant axe blade]]
-* [[Enormous corkscrew]]
-* [[Spiked ball]]
-* [[Large, serrated disc]]
-* [[Menacing spike]]
-Corkscrews, menacing spikes and spiked balls can also be made from wood at a [[carpenter's workshop]].  All trap weapons can also be made out of [[glass]].
-[[Mechanism]]s also can be made by a [[Mechanic]] via the "Trap Components" menu of a forge, though only from 3 [[adamantine]] wafers -- no other metals.
-=== Siege equipment ===
-There is only one piece of siege equipment that can be created at a forge: the [[ballista arrowhead]], which requires three metal bars.  These arrowheads must then be mated with a wooden [[Wood|log]] at a [[siege workshop]] to form a complete [[ballista arrow]].  It is also possible to make wood-only ballista arrows at the [[siege workshop]], which are assumed to do less damage. The [[siege engine]]s themselves are also built at the siege workshop, out of three siege engine parts made of [[wood]].
-== Armor ==
-[[Armor]] can be forged from [[copper]], [[iron]], [[bronze]], [[bismuth bronze]], [[steel]] and [[adamantine]]. Available armor types include:
-* [[Plate mail]] (3 [[metal]] bars)
-* [[Chain mail]] (2 metal [[bar]]s)
-* [[Greaves]] (2 metal bars)
-* [[Leggings]]
-* [[Helm]]
-* [[Cap]]
-* [[Gauntlet]]
-* [[High boot]]s
-* [[Low boot]]s
-* [[Shield]]
-* [[Buckler]]
-Each piece of armor requires one metal bar to forge, except where noted.
-== Furniture ==
-[[Furniture]] can forged from any non-brittle metal -- in short, all [[metal]]s except for [[pig iron]] and [[bismuth]]. You can forge:
-* [[Cage]]
-* [[Restraint|Chain]] (1 metal bar) (requires the [[metalcrafting]] labor)
-* [[Animal trap]] (1 metal bar) (requires the [[trapping]] labor and not any of the [[metalsmith]] labors)
-* [[Bucket]] (1 metal bar)
-* [[Barrel]]
-* [[Armor stand]]
-* Metal [[block]] (1 metal bar)
-* [[Door]]
-* [[Floodgate]]
-* [[Hatch cover]]
-* [[Grate]]
-* [[Statue]]
-* [[Cabinet]]
-* [[Chest]]
-* [[Throne]]
-* [[Sarcophagus]]
-* [[Table]]
-* [[Weapon rack]]
-* [[Bin]]
-* [[Pipe section]]
-All metal furniture requires three [[bar]]s to forge except where otherwise noted.  The [[blacksmithing]] labor (and its corresponding skill, metalsmith) is used to create everything except chains ([[metalcrafting]]) and animal traps ([[trapping]]).
-In addition, three [[bar]]s of [[iron]] or [[steel]] (or 9 [[adamantine]] wafers) can be used to forge [[anvil]]s (via the "Other Objects" menu), which are used in the construction of additional forges.
-== Finished goods ==
-Other objects can be forged from all [[metal]]s except [[pig iron]] and [[bismuth]], using the [[metalcrafting]] skill. They are:
-* [[Restraint|Chain]]
-* [[Craft]]s
-* [[Goblet]]s
-* [[Toy]]
-* [[Instrument]]
-* [[Flask]]s
-* Minted [[coin]]s
-* [[Stud]] an item with metal
-Each of the above objects requires one bar of metal to make, including studding.  Like other [[decoration]]s (such as [[jeweler's workshop|encrusting with gems]], [[craftsdwarf's workshop|decorating with bone]] or [[craftsdwarf's workshop|decorating with shell]]), you cannot specify which object to stud: the smith will generally take the nearest available object and stud it. Note that unlike all other metalsmithing operations, studding items does not require [[fuel]].
-== Metal clothing ==
-[[Adamantine]] can be used to make anything, even lightweight [[clothing]].  All the clothing items that can be made at the [[clothier's shop]] can be forged from adamantine if you have it.
