Casting

Main article: Casting

Vessel

Place an empty or partially filled ceramic tool or weapon mold into the slot to fill it with copper from the vessel. It takes 100 units of copper to completely fill an empty ceramic mold. The text in the vessel's GUI will update to show the amount of copper remaining in the vessel.

100 Units

Unshaped Ingot

To fill a tool or weapon mold from a ceramic ingot mold, right click with the liquid temperature, completely full, unshaped copper ingot while it is selected on the hotbar to open the casting interface:

Place a single empty tool or weapon mold into the first slot on the right to begin the transfer. The arrow will progress, and the filled mold will appear to the right. The empty ceramic mold may appear in the center slot, although it has a chance of breaking and being lost.

Removing the Head from the Mold	Finishing the Tool

Smithing

Liquid copper can be poured into a Ceramic Mold to make unshaped copper. Once the unshaped copper is no longer liquid temperature, it can be placed in the crafting grid to create a copper ingot. The empty mold will be returned to the inventory; although there is a chance of it breaking and being lost.

Creating an ingot will only work if the metal is in a solid state. The temperature will be carried over from the unshaped ingot temperature.
