Crafting
Firstly you will want a stone anvil. To do this, collect at least 28 stones. Craft them in a 2x2 square to get Stone Macadam. Cook this to get stone blocks.

Craft 3 stone blocks across the top of a craft grid, 1 in the middle, and 3 along the base. This will yield 1 stone anvil.

Place it down,and right-click it for the GUI.

To upgrade a level, you will need a stone hammer too. See the Stone Tools page to see how. You will also need some flux, which you get from hammering borax.

To hammer borax, put borax in the second slot along. Put a hammer in the first slot. Then press forge, and you will get some flux. For more information on borax, go here.

To upgrade to a copper anvil, you will need 14 copper ingots. Put 7 in the second slot, and 7 in the third. Put flux in the fourth slot, and a stone hammer in the first. Press Weld. You will get double ingots.

To make the copper anvil, use the same craft as above but replace the stone with copper double ingots.

To make a copper hammer, use the copper anvil. Put the hammer in first slot, then a double ingot in second, and finally a Hammer plan (See Scribing Table) in the third. Press forge to get a copper hammer head.

Continue this process to upgrade, by using the copper hammer and anvil to get a bronze anvil, then copper hammer and bronze anvil to get bronze hammer.

Use this process to upgrade each time you can make a better anvil.

Lastly, remember that to hammer pig iron into wrought iron, you will need at least a bronze anvil!

The anvils look like so: (The same order as above, but from left (weakest) to right (strongest)
