A '''Shovel''' is a reliable '''blacksmithed''' metal shovel made on an [[Anvil]]. It is superior to the [[Slate Shovel]] and [[Iron Shovel]]. It does not break and improves digging efficiency based on the quality.

==Sources==
Produced at a [[Anvil]] and requires [[Blacksmithing 1]] and [[Blacksmithing 2]]

==Cost==
*10 [[Metal]] ([[Iron]], [[Copper]], or selected [[Alloys]])

== Uses ==
* Group [[dig]]s to dig for [[Cuttable Stone]], [[Medium Stone]], [[gypsum]] and [[bauxite]]
* Gather [[dirt]] from the ground.

==Research and Tuition==
*''40 Shovels (25 8500+ quality, 10 9000+ quality, 5 9500+ quality) needed for [[Blacksmithing 3]] research''
*''100 Shovels (9500+ quality) needed for [[Storage Improvements 2]] research''

==Blacksmithing a Shovel==
* Put your metal on your [[anvil]].
* Your goal is to get a lower dent in the middle, get metal to the back sides and make a flat tongue at the front.
*Use a [[Shaping Mallet]] and try moving the metal from the area which will be the tongue in the end to the middle/back of the piece and then push it to the sides so it ends up with the height you need there.
*Try using force medium (7) to low (3) to get that done and shift a lot between the model and your work piece.
*Start at the front part where the tongue will be and try to push metal to the back.
*Hit in the front, but not the edge because you want the metal. This creates a higher ridge a bit behind the front.
*Push that back with 2 side strokes / a middle stroke if necessary and repeat.
