:''Not to be confused with the [[Metalsmith]] category profession.''
 
 
 
The '''metalsmith''' [[skill]] is used to make [[furniture]], [[bucket]]s, [[bin]]s, [[block]]s, [[cage]]s, and [[anvil]]s at a [[metalsmith's forge]].
 
 
 
The [[labor]] that corresponds to the metalsmith skill is called '''blacksmithing'''.  A dwarf whose highest skill is "metalsmith" will have the '''Blacksmith''' profession. Confusingly, "[[metalsmith]]" is also the [[profession]]al title given for the whole class of metalworking skills, so an equally skillful [[furnace operator]] and [[weaponsmith]] may gain a professional label of "metalsmith", despite having no "metalsmithing" (blacksmithing) skill at all.
 
 
 
Despite both being under the "furniture" menu of a [[forge]], [[chain]]s are made by [[metal crafter]]s, and [[animal trap]]s are made by [[trapper]]s.

* Buildings which are built using material-dependent labors (e.g. a trade depot) may require "any metalsmithing skill," but will only check and raise Metalsmithing, not any other qualifying skill (e.g. weaponsmithing). The [[quality]] of any such buildings is based off this skill alone. {{Bug|4899}}
