Used for the smithing of various tools.
Overview
An Anvil is used for creating various hammered metal products.
Source
This building becomes available to be built after the Advanced Blacksmithing technology is learned at a University of Art & Music. (But an anvil can be operated with only the Blacksmithing tech).
Cost
- 1 Anvil Bed
- 120 Firebricks
- 4 Water in Jugs (jugs are consumed)
Tip: Build your anvil facing east to west instead of north to south because it will be much easier to work materials on the anvil using cartographer's camera from the camera options menu. The front of the anvil needs to face south(rotate once clockwise). If it is facing the wrong direction, make sure you have salvage techniques and then tear it down and rebuild the anvil till you get it right.
- The primary problem with the Anvil is you cannot tell which end is front end. If you rotate it be very carry to note the orientation.
- Also, if you plan to use some of the Carpentry Blade macros, they require the anvil to be in a specific orientation or the macro will fail because the macro can't tell where the front of the anvil is and when it tries to automate the hammer moves and rotations needed the iron won't be in the correct location for the hits.

Use
An anvil is used to create various metal tools by shaping a block of metal into a specific pattern. Using an anvil requires the Blacksmithing tech.
This uses various smithing Tools, each with a different pattern in pushing metal:
The finished products are assigned a quality based on how close they are to the goal. The higher the quality, the more effective the tool, with 9999 being perfect. An anvil can produce the following:
- Shovel - 10 metal; 4 wood to complete; require 6000+ to be effective
- Carpentry Blade - 1 metal; requires quality 3000+ to be used
- Hatchet - 20 metal
- Resin Wedge - 7 metal
- Sharp Edged Knife Blade - 10 metal
- Spring - 1 metal
from any of the following metals, with stronger metals allowing more hits before the piece becomes too fragile to work.
