[QUOTE="AtomRat, post: 175052, member: 3111"] My forge is struggling to hold up to iron temps but it was getting closer to the wet season so it couldve been my mistake to use it then, but ill certainly give it a go when its warmer and theres no moisture in the furnace, I dont want it to crack any more.. XIV - Ive identified all of the list you wrote in the sand. It made up from all of them, yep. If its worth it, or even just for fun ill try to chemically separate or figure out a way to separate the minerals its called a flower or a bloom I think when you get ore and turn it to pig iron and slowly add carbon. A very tedious process and I wouldnt like to attempt it witout having a drop hammer + leafspring setup running. Lots of folding and welding [/QUOTE]
