Smelter

A Smelter is a crafting facility found in .
==Overview==
Smelters are used for smelting ores and certain Dwemer artifacts into ingots. They are dark colored and dome-shaped, often found near mine entrances and in some cities. Smelting does not raise smithing abilities.
==Locations==

*Darkwater Crossing: Outside mine entrance.
*Dawnstar: One outside Quicksilver Mine (near the docked boat) and one outside Iron-Breaker Mine, next to The White Hall.

===Crafting===
In Hearthfire, the Dragonborn can install up to two smelters in each of the new homesteads; one outside and one in the cellar. Each requires following resources:
*2 x Iron Fittings
*5 x Iron Ingots
*6 x Clay
*4 x Quarried Stone
==Trivia==
*When NPCs use a smelter, they will do an animation of first shoveling coal into the smelter, then eventually pouring the liquid metal into an ingot mold, then leaving the smelter. However, when the Dragonborn uses the smelter, only the coal shoveling animation is played in an endless loop.
*Dwemer objects that cannot be smelted: Dwemer cog, Dwemer gyro, Dwemer scrap metal, small Dwemer lever, Dwemer lever, dishes, bowls and cups, armor and weapons.
==Bugs==
* Sometimes, when a smelter is activated there is no action. This glitch can occur when using any blacksmith facility, (i.e. tanning rack, grindstone, forge). Sheathing/unsheathing should resolve this.
* Sometimes when using the Whirlwind Sprint shout, then activating the smelter very quickly afterward, the Dragonborn is shown scooping ore into the ground beside the smelter instead of into the smelter.
