Iron Scrap is a small piece of waste iron. It is a blacksmithing material that turns quickly into useful stock.

A forge turns one scrap into an Iron Chunk or an Iron Bar Quarter. The Forge 10 Nails recipe makes ten Nails from a single scrap. A metal saw breaks it into five Iron Piece without any fire.

Scrap is a cheap way into metalworking before ore and blooms are worked. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.

Uses


The Forge Scrap Into Chunk recipe takes one Iron Scrap and two Charcoal. A hammer or club hammer and tongs are needed and kept. It runs at a Primitive Forge or better. The result is one Iron Chunk. The Forge Scrap Into Bar Quarter recipe works the same way and gives an Iron Bar Quarter instead.

The Forge 10 Nails recipe takes one scrap and two Charcoal. It needs a smithing hammer, metalworking pliers or tongs, and a heading tool, all kept. It needs Blacksmithing level 1. Ten Nails from one scrap is a strong return for building work.

The Break Down Metal recipe needs no station. A metal saw, small saw or bolt cutters cut one scrap into five Iron Piece.

Scrap also melts down. The Smelt Iron From Small Item recipe turns it into one Iron Chunk at a Primitive Furnace or better.

Used in Crafting
