Magazine: Everyday Smithing - June 1993 is a blacksmithing magazine about the smith's own tools. Reading it teaches seventeen recipes, most of them for the tools every other forge recipe needs.
The list covers Forge Tongs, Forge Heading Tool, Forge Draw Plate, Forge 10 Nails, Forge Smithing Hammer Head, Forge Metalworking Punch, Forge Metalworking Chisel, Forge Metalworking Pliers, Forge File, Forge Drill and Forge Wrench. It adds Forge Masonry Chisel, Forge Masonry Trowel, Forge Fireplace Poker and Make Improvised Whetstone. Two drill press recipes, Drill Draw Plate and Drill Heading Tool, round it out.
Many recipes need only Blacksmithing level 1 and a Primitive Forge. That makes this the best first magazine for a new smith. It is found in loot, mostly in gun stores, hunting lodges and tool stores. Reading it also eases boredom and stress.
Uses
The level 1 recipes all work at a Primitive Forge or better. Forge Tongs, Forge Heading Tool, Forge Draw Plate, Forge Smithing Hammer Head and Forge Metalworking Punch build the basic kit. Forge 10 Nails turns one piece of iron or steel scrap and two Charcoal into ten Nails. A smithing hammer, tongs or pliers and a Heading Tool are kept.
Masonry tools follow. Forge Masonry Trowel needs level 2 and Forge Masonry Chisel needs level 3, both at a Primitive Forge. Forge Fireplace Poker needs level 4.
The finer tools need a Simple Forge or better. Forge Metalworking Chisel, Forge Metalworking Pliers and Forge File need level 4. Forge Drill needs level 5 and makes an Auger Drill. Forge Wrench needs level 5 and an Advanced Forge.
Drill Draw Plate and Drill Heading Tool skip the forge. They need Welding level 3 and a Standing Drill Press. Make Improvised Whetstone needs Maintenance level 1 and works on any surface.
Most forge recipes here are learned without the magazine two levels after their requirement. The Blacksmith occupation and Blacksmith Knowledge trait know every forge recipe here. The Welder occupation knows the two drill press recipes.
Like every magazine, it also counts as paper for armour. Make Magazine Body Armor takes eight magazines and four Duct Tape at Tailoring level 1. Make Magazine Limb Armor takes one magazine and two Duct Tape.
