Blast Furnace

The Blast Furnace is a utility block used for smelting ores, raw metals, and metal-based armor and tools at twice the speed of a regular Furnace. It is primarily used for processing iron, gold, and chainmail equipment into ingots. A Blast Furnace is crafted using 5 Iron Ingots, 3 Smooth Stone, and 1 Furnace in a 3×3 crafting grid. It also generates naturally in armorer houses within villages and serves as the job site block for armorer villagers.

To use a Blast Furnace, the player must tap on it to open the interface. The top slot is for smeltable items, the bottom slot is for fuel, and the right slot outputs the processed material. It accepts the same fuel sources as a regular Furnace but can only smelt ores, raw metals, and metal-based gear. Items smelt twice as fast but also consume fuel at twice the rate. A Blast Furnace can be mined with any tool, but pickaxes break it the fastest.
