Blacksmith
Blacksmiths make metal furniture and containers such as buckets, bins, barrels, cages, blocks, and anvils, and can construct certain metal buildings.
How it works
The blacksmith skill is used at metalsmith’s and magma forges. It serves general metal production needs beyond weapons and armor. The source flags outstanding bugs in the feature and notes a building-related behavior in which certain material-dependent construction can raise Blacksmithing even when another metalsmithing skill might qualify.
