Furnace
Description
Another very important utility block in Minecraft is the Furnace, and this holds true for Polycraft World as well. The Furnace is an inventory that allows raw materials, such as ores or raw meat, to be smelted or cooked into their completed products, such as ingots or cooked meat. The top of the furnace allows input of raw materials, with a fuel slot located below. Outputs are placed on the right hand side for easy retrieval. A plethora of items can be used as a fuel source for the furnace, such as wood, coal, or petrochemicals from Polycraft World, each with their own independent burn time.

In the real world, furnaces rarely are used for both cooking food products as well as processing ores. Metallurgical furnaces have existed in many shapes and forms throughout human history, and a more apt word to describe this would be a bloomery. which is an example of a basic relatively inefficient metallurgical furnace used prior to the industrial revolution, and the earliest way humans smelted iron metal from ore.
The sections below show how to craft a furnace, as well as some Polycraft World related item recipes the furnace can be used for. Please note this is not an exhaustive list and recipes can be located on their respective page if necessary.
