The Smelting Furnace is the station that converts raw metal ore into Ingots in Windrose. Every player builds one within the first few hours because Copper Ingots unlock the bulk of the game's crafting recipes.

The Large Smelting Furnace is an upgraded variant that halves smelt time. It costs 20 Hewn Stone + 10 Foothills Iron Ingot + 20 Clay and must be placed outdoors within Bonfire range. Once Iron is flowing, converting your primary smelter to Large is a major throughput boost. Keep the standard furnace online as a second station to parallelize Copper and Iron runs.
