Smelting is a system that allows the player to modify items, such as cooking [[food]] and making [[glass]].
To be able to use the smelter, the player will need to have a fuel and an item to smelt. The most easily obtained fuel is [[charcoal]] because it is made very easily from smelting wood first, meaning that you don't need to mine much, apart from the stone used to make the furnace. Also, it smelts as many items as [[coal]], however normal coal needs to be mined. Some wooden items, such as sticks or wooden planks, can be used as a fuel also. Some fuel lasts longer than others. For instance, a bucket of lava will power the furnace ten times longer than charcoal.
