Open a blacksmith's shop, fix tools at the anvil, track every level spent.

Broken swords, battered pickaxes… the kingdom needs a blacksmith. Open your shop and watch the prices.

What you’ll build

Open a blacksmith's shop with an anvil, a grindstone and a sign. Repair damaged tools, combine them and add enchanted books, logging the level cost every time. Compare it with the grindstone and write a price board showing the best-value fix for each job.

Finish line: Your blacksmith's shop is open, every job is logged, and your price board shows the best-value fixes.

Bonus challenge: Plan the cheapest order to put 3 enchanted books on one tool, then try it. Did your plan dodge Too Expensive?

You’ll need

  • 31 iron ingots for an anvil
  • A grindstone
  • Damaged tools
  • Enchanted books
  • XP levels

You choose

  • My shop's name
  • The legendary tool I'll keep upgrading
  • Its new name (anvils can rename!)

Stuck?

  • Each anvil job on the same item costs more next time. Very high costs show "Too Expensive!"
  • A grindstone repairs for free but strips off most enchantments, so check before you use it.
  • Anvils wear out and can break with use, so keep spare iron handy.
