This article is about an older version of DF.

Melting a item will destroy it, but will yield a fraction of the metal originally used to make it. In order to get a full bar, you'll have to melt several objects of the same material.

To melt an item, designate it for melting either in the stocks menu or via the area-designate command. You'll then need to give a "melt melt-designated object" command in a smelter workshop.

Melting an item in a regular smelter requires fuel. Melting an item in a magma smelter requires no fuel.
