Obtaining
Metal Pickaxe
Metal Pickaxes can only be made from tool metals. They can be cast in ceramic molds, or worked on a metal anvil.
Casting
- Main article: Casting
Bismuth Bronze, Black Bronze, Bronze, and Copper Pickaxes can be cast using a Vessel or a Ceramic Mold instead of working on an anvil.

Vessel
Place an empty or partially filled Pickaxe mold into the slot to fill it with metal from the vessel. It takes 100 units of metal to completely fill an empty Ceramic Mold. The text in the vessel's GUI will be updated to show the amount of metal remaining in the vessel.

Smithing
- Main article: Working
Pickaxe Heads can also be crafted by using ingots on an anvil with a hammer. This is the only option for higher tier metals that cannot be cast. The durability depends both on the metal used and the skill of the smith forging the tool.
