Steel Ingot

[jondonnis]

So a lot of stuff requires "steel" still yet there is now no blast furnace due to Railcraft being removed. How do we go about making steel?

[CRKBOW]

Just put 4 coal around an iron ingot, then cook it

Cool thanks. Must easier than the railcraft way.

you can also use a metalurgic infuser, put compressed carbon (enriched coal) in, along with iron dust from an enrichment chamber. it makes steel dust, which still requires smelting, but doesn't use anywhere near as much coal. hope this helps you some :)

Have tried that in a test world, doesn't appear to work. The compressed carbon and iron dust are just sitting there in the Infuser doing nothing.

Seems to be Enriched Iron you need, not iron dust.

Got it setup now, thanks is a better way as uses less coal.

sorry, thats right it is enriched iron, I've been playing mekanism on an older version :)
