Blacksmith Mould

Type | Recipe

**Blacksmith Moulds**
are items that can be attached to the Smithy in order to allow players to form Ingots into the desired shape. These moulds are useful for crafting Weapons, Tools, and the attachments that go along with them. As of 0.0.21.0, it is impossible to craft Handles or Armor. Therefore, there are no moulds that depict them.

Blacksmith moulds have two pieces of information on them. The first is a visual of the product, and the second is how many ingots of metal are needed to create that item. Any Metal or Alloy can fulfill this second requirement; however, the quality and effectiveness of the product will change based on the metal or alloy used.

Most weapon moulds need to be Forged after they are produced.

## Obtaining

**Blacksmith Moulds**
can be found in crates on Cave Structures and in the various chest found in the Overworld. Once they are brought back to the Smithy, they can be stored in the Blacksmith mould racks, if the racks are built. If a new, unique mould is brought to the Smithy, ATT will attach an anti-theft tag to it that prevents players from putting the mould in a backpack, and from leaving the building. If a player does attempt to steal the mould, ATT will forcefully despawn it from the player's hands and respawn it in the Smithy.

A new server starts with 3 basic moulds:

* Pickaxe head 4x Ingots
* Hammer Head 5x Ingots
* Curved dagger head 2x Ingots

## Head Types

In total, there are 48 **Moulds**
to be discovered in the game. 235 ingots are required to make one of each mould.

### Bar Blades

All of these blades can only be attached to the perpendicular splitter (the top row of Directional Attachments)

### Miscellaneous

 The wall hooks is not a tool, but an accessory that can be attached to walls or other flat surfaces. The protrusion allows the player to precariously balance tools, ladles and other items on the wall.
 The last mould shown is a Shovel head mould, used in the process of Digging. Despite not being a blade, it must also be forged.

## Attachments

The moulds below are not the tools themselves, but the attachments that also go on a handle to provide extra durability, visual appeal, and occasionally damage.

### Directional Attachments

 This attachment allows you to place blades angling out from all four sides of your Handle, such as axe heads.
 Directional attachments are one of the unique features to A Township Tale and add a significant amount of customization to the game. The moulds in the top row produce directional attachments that generally rotate a weapon 90 degrees (One fourth of a circle) from its normal position. The second row produces directional attachments that allow a multiple weapons to be attached side by side in their normal position, or rotated by 180 degrees (half of a circle). The first column allows for one extra weapon to be added, the second column allows for two extras. Finally, the third column allows for four weapons to be added. The last two attachments are a peculiar case: They can be placed at the end of a handle (or at a middle point in some cases, notably the long/medium metal handles), and can attach 2 and 4 extra blades respectively. The applicable blades include small blades such as the shortswords, rapier blade, dagger blades, side blades, and, peculiarly, all Hebios blades (Sai, katana, and wazikashi) except the Naginata.

## Generic Crafting Parts

These Moulds are for combining into different items using the Assembly Deck.
