Hellforge
The Hellforge is a crafting station that incorporates the same functions as a regular Furnace, additionally being able to smelt Hellstone into Hellstone Bars. It is also used to craft the essential Adamantite/Titanium Forge in Hardmode.
Hellforges cannot be crafted, and are found in Ruined Houses in the Underworld. There, Hellforges can only be collected with a Deathbringer or Nightmare Pickaxe or better (60% pickaxe power). Once placed at higher depths, they can be removed with any pickaxe.

Notes
- On the Console version, Hellforges can spawn just above the Underworld.
- The sprite appears to have a small flow of lava on the right side.
- Even though the Hellforge looks like a furnace and acts like one, it cannot be crafted and must be found or taken from other players.
- You can easily get one early game by using a Teleportation Potion and spawning in the Underworld or near it.
- In the mobile version, some recipes might not be craftable at a hellforge, which can be crafted at normal furnaces.It might be a good idea to only use hellforges to craft hellstone, but keep the "Stone Furnace" placed in pre-hardmode.
- In old version and Old-Gen Console/3Ds versions, the Hellforge and Furnace looks like a rounded forge.
Trivia
- It appears to be made of Hellstone Bricks.
- Strangely, although it is a late pre-hardmode version of the Furnace, it is not required to smelt Cobalt, Palladium, Mythril, and Orichalcum into bars.
