Valheim FACTORY for Smooth Smelting

[@Rmmei3]

I never comment on YT but I will say that after seeing your house video I immediately built it. I was surprised that that was your first video and was disappointed there wasn't more content. Thank you for keeping it coming, this is probably going to be the next project I work on. Keep up the great work!

[@radost-sv]

Your wit is such a wonderful addition to these great builds, I'm looking forward to seeing more of your creative spirit!

[@Grymdrache]

I appreciate the mass production and efficiency of your designs.

[@vicenteoliveira865]

this man loves his secret holes deserves way more subs

[@Ben-gm9lo]

And don't forget his love tunnel. Or was that love for his tunnel, or his tunnel of love. Think I need to watch it again.

[@Kiinotasha]

As someone just rediscovering Valheim after not playing it for years, thank you, this has helped so much in getting me back into the game

[@jashiinobadii]

It looks so damn good. I followed your guide and surprised my friends with it! They think I am a master builder now. THANKS FOR THE BUILD!

[@zer0coolxgaming]

The best part of your video, something no one else does for some reason, is giving a top down look at what you’re doing and explaining the dimensions of everything. I almost never sub and you got mine. I just started playing in last few days and stumbled upon this video. I was frustrated with smelting layout, grabbing all the stuff they spit out and this is such a clever way to work around it. Thanks

[@SleepyHooman]

This is a great template and is super helpful for scaling production in later biomes too. I used your template with 16 length so that I could have 4 kilns:5 smelters to preserve the resource ratio (kilns do 25 wood into coal at a time, and smelters accept 20 coal at a time, so you can do 2 stacks or 100 wood total per trip and everything will be balanced). I also did two rows of kilns and smelters instead of one (so it ended up as 12x16) so I could have one row of 5 regular smelters supplied by 4 kilns, and one row of 5 blast furnaces supplied by 4 kilns. I put the kilns on the outside ends and the smelters/furnaces on the inside so I could maintain the flow you have where all the outputs dump into the middle and all the coal inputs face the kilns. It's so satisfying!! Great editing by the way, I was very entertained 😄

[@SigmamalePatrickBatemanGugacha]

can't explain how helpful ur tutorials are, waiting for more of ur ideas, man

[@PaulCole-71]

Nice work. And for new players (before you start building) ensure your building is aligned with the cardinal directions (North, South, East. West) to allow straight subterranean trenches.

[@onelovedrumming]

"You must be as centered as possible, in both mind and whole" Brother thats the key to anything in life 😂🙏🏼

[@carleneeverett7760]

A lot of build videos on KZbin are heavily aesthetic and not very good for standard gameplay. I love that you show how to make the basic, playable build, and then suggest how to make it prettier. I will absolutely be building this

[@Vendreg]

With "Auto Fuel" mod this build will be a beast. Thanks for the idea for a beautiful, automated smelting area!

[@saturntaco4949]

I can't believe you only have 270 subscribers. I mean, your builds are amazing man. I've never seen such an efficient smelting room, and I have like 400 hours in Valheim. I'm absolutely building this next time I hop on. Keep the videos up, they're awesome!

[@Fade_Bloodlace]

I just came here to say as of today, (it says 3 months after your post) he's showing 6.47k subscribers, so clearly you knew he was destined for greatness. I can't believe I've missed out on him until just now. Crazy good stuff. Glad to see his subscribers has grown so well in such a short amount of time.

[@ross2905]

@@Fade_Bloodlace 7 months after original post its 10.8k subs! So deserved

[@mykytayakovliev3581]

I’m gonna try building it today, perfect addition for the new house ;)

[@Jezamare112192]

Glad I found you, Bananas! You're a joy to watch, and your humor is well timed and tickles my funny viking bone.

[@NatsumeRyu]

this is one of the most practical valheim builds ive ever seen and i love it

[@AKRenlor]

Love it! Much cleaner than the version I made off of an older video from another creator, and certainly less materials. Though you might try putting a 1m wood piece in the exit spout of the blast furnace in such a way that it forces the bars to spawn far enough down the shute that it won't hang up.

[@Ramash440]

Just made one of these. Collecting all the stone took more time than I expected and I'm still on the iron age so I just made the 4 kiln 5 smelter type, no roof or antyhing yet. This thing's great.

[@MajinBluu27]

Not only is the build fantastic but you also put the guide and video as a whole together so well! Bravo

[@jetrexdesign]

I'm gonna use this. Thanks for such a thorough guide! It looks great and works really well.

[@lwoods5739]

Bravo! Keep up the good work and they will come. Funny, informative, and logical. The way you explain your reasoning makes it easy to follow. You have changed how I'll look at all my builds in the future.

[@peacefulminimalist2028]

Both your videos are amazing, as are the builds. Thanks a lot for the witty, clever and in depth descriptions. I've got thousands of hours in Valheim and have made plenty of builds, let's face it, some less successful than others, so now I can't wait to try out this smelting factory that seem to work! Smelting is so tedious and that tunnel-run must feel like such a reward at the end. Just have to get to the stone age on my current server.. Subscribed!

[@FuuzBeeen]

Just put this into a multiplayer run with a friend, they were chuffed, good job dude.

[@smoukyman8873]

Great build, i have found out that your design also helps with fps drops when around the smelters and kilns,because the ingots are not visible right away so they dont take so much from the resources of the pc, my gf has older pc and she was lagging hard around the smelters and kilns now she can move aroung the factory easily, thank you very much man, keep the good work up.

[@CubSW]

I just wanted to drop by and express how much I enjoyed the video, Your ability to break down concepts into easily digestible chunks makes the process a whole lot easier! Watching you demonstrate the functionality of your smelting factory and then guide us through the construction process was both informative and entertaining. Your attention to detail and clear explanations made it so easy to follow along, and I found myself feeling inspired to try out some new techniques in my own Valheim adventures. It's evident that you have a passion for sharing your knowledge and helping others improve their gameplay experience. Speaking of which, your video has me even more excited to dive into Valheim with my brother for our first playthrough! I've been working on a custom mod pack consisting of around 18 mods that we plan to incorporate into our series. These mods are designed to complement the vanilla gameplay and enhance the overall experience for both us and our viewers. Thank you for being such a positive influence in the Valheim community. Your dedication to sharing your knowledge and passion for the game is truly admirable, and I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us in future videos. Keep up the fantastic work, Crate Of Bananas! You're making a real difference in the gaming world, and I'm grateful to be a part of your audience. Cheers!

[@sunname6252]

I'm partial to building a ring of 8 smelters that drop into a single central hole, going clockwise to fill one side, counter to fill the other while having a large enough platform behind the smelters to drag a cart full of ore, nice and close to the dock to transfer it up with chests from the boat deck or such.

[@robo9823]

Instead of placing them seperate from each other, you can place the charcoal on top of the smelter making more efficent "smelting mushrooms"

[@sandmaster4444]

Now this I gotta try!!!!

[@HerrderHoden]

Nice, I recently build my first city in valheim with a harbor and many random buildings. Now Im looking to add these crafting stations, gardens and farms to it so it really comes alive. This is great inspiration.

[@victorpadilha3860]

One of the best tutorials I've ever seen. Plus I was about to build a forge and this design matched perfectly.

[@MadDissonance]

This is a great design. One thing that could make it a bit more efficient, maybe: you can reach the coal/ore holes from the front or back even when they are like 1/2-1 meter apart. This would allow you to keep the filling on one lane instead of two.

[@rileynitz2070]

My buddy built this in our server and i instantly fell in love with it

[@catwithasubtlesmile4660]

mr crate of bananas gifted us another god tier build

[@Fade_Bloodlace]

One of the best tutorials I've watched. Your style is so clean and precise. Fantastic job. Earned my subscription easy.

[@maccaronich]

Just built this factory with some friends I've just introduced to valheim! We built a massive port at an outpost i made along my cart road, good for processing metals from all of the surrounding biomes

[@wolfevonbaden]

I am actually very impressed with the explanation and the tutorial, Thank you very much. You deserve way more subscribers

[@MightyOProductions]

I feel Odin calling me back to this game now....

[@chadnorris8257]

Thanks for the vid. I often wondered how I could make my smithy a bit more efficient, and never thought of having a basement underneath the smelters for ingots to go.

[@Climacticc_Chaos]

i built a whole structure that i call "The Forge" that has all this inside, not quite as effecient and glorious but its nice to go into the forge at the end of an adventure and smelt up all the loot.

[@phoneixfmg]

Give this man an award, nice video and nice architect

[@potatoaddictions9637]

Such well made video's so far man. If I were to compare your creative nature to any youtuber from any survival building game it would match the best of the best no doubt. I love valheim and haven't even played it that much. Yet after watching two videos from you I can safely say that this game captures my intrigue more than any other. Amazing content, original builds and an engaging script. Please keep up the hardwork.

[@samblandford6858]

Honestly I hope your channel completely takes off, awesome builds and funny without forcing it.

[@piratemat2824]

The thumbnail looked so good I purposely didn't watch this video the first time I saw it cause I thought it was modded, I came across the sundial video and this was suggested and I am so glad it did.

[@joshewert13]

Haven’t played valheim in a while, just wanna say your videos are some of the most impressive how to builds I’ve seen since it’s release

[@FsWhickedshell]

you can attach a 45° woodbeam through the ignot output on the blastfurnace to push the ignots down. place it in a way so you can see the arch or the output sticking through a bit.

[@Nori-Planetheus]

Insane video thank you a lot for this. Very clear to understand, everything is explained from the beginning to the end with a really good explanation on top of that, it's Perfect.

[@klansimpson]

Exceptional design, just built myself one and loving it

[@sneezyfido]

On box placement, I like to raise my equipment on stone arches, then put the boxes underneath. It save a lot of width :)

[@ryansmith3383]

Great videos, inspiring lots of builds and getting me to push through the early game where I've always gotten stuck. Thanks for the fun ideas.

[@TCMSecurityAcademy]

i gesing you did in hammer mode

[@daniel-swimmin]

i did it and blast furnace works just fine with your system, just turn the furnace the other way around on the same line with the smelters, did 3 smelters tuned the first furnace to use the same hole as the last smelter placed and continued every other square with 3 more furnace, to cover them and have the chest inbetween them i started with a horiz core wood then beam on top and then half wall to be tall enough to give clearance for the furnace poop hole, btw metal on the furnace 3 stays and the 4th one coming makes them 3 fall, and you can collect it when walking by if it is stuck and there is no more to be proccesed

[@NinaOilily]

again very nice and practical ! like ur vids !

[@KamramBehzad]

Where have you been all my (Valheim) life?! Building good looking homes is fine and all that but practical functional designs is what I want. Thanks for sharing mate.

[@rocko34]

6:33 being “as centred as possible in mind and hole” is now my life goal

[@maydup4880]

I am patiently awaiting the next build vid so I can keep building my base. Would love to see where you take this series, I know I’d love to see a full end-game base on the border of the Plains and Mistlands with all the late game materials. Whatever you make next I’m sure it will continue to satisfy my OCD, keep it up bro!

[@leftcoastfunk]

wait hold on this is only your second video?!?! Your editing and voiceover are amazing! Most YTers I've seen at this level are just rambling with no apparent point and don't know how to edit or anything. I loved your house video, but now after seeing this and realizing your channel is so small, I insta-subscribed!!! Looking forward to more content :)

[@williamEcubed]

Truly, the best, most concise, and efficient Valheim content.

[@JustinTurdoCastro420]

Great build! I like to stack my Kilns using the hoe to raise the terrain to be able to place on top. I only need 2 kilns, so it's nice to have them take the space of one.

[@autodidacticpoly]

For black metal/blast furnace bars, you can use some of the black marble diamond-shaped pieces to effectively force stuff off and onto the roof-tile. I'd actually recommend using the steeper black marble diagonals on those anyway as you'll get less "sticky" bars.

[@autodidacticpoly]

All this being said though, I'm a big fan of an elevated circular pattern for smelters, means you get all the bars dropping into one area.

[@guywithatippmann]

Dope build I often build something similar but never as pretty, if you make your paths wide enough for a cart you can save a lot of mats on chests and the headache of figuring out where your resources are which I find just a bit more convenient

[@oblxlab]

Was looking for some advices for Valheim and I came accross your videos. This factory is as neat as your house, not to mention quality of your editing. You deserve a seat in Valhalla.

[@marshallchaney9486]

I wish all tutelage was as magnificent and instilling as your instructions on how to build a straight tunnel.

[@FuuzBeeen]

Alright, first of all, I am about to get to the floor setting up part, but I just wanna say that from one person to another person, your voice is reassuring and nice, and I hope you are taking care of yourself dude. Second, I don't tend to get too fussed on valheim builds and tend to nick them and leave, but then the first point came to mind, and right after my mind thought about that, you showed off the caged processor and it baffled me plenty, it may be simple in some people's eyes, but that clean look and then the sliding bar ramps, very good job dude.

[@rurtrd6286]

dear stranger valheim dude, you are very cool and inventive! that channel is absolutely worth subscribing to in an era where noone subscribes ever

[@TheSchokomac]

carrying heavy materials to your smelting area is pain in the ass. build a factory like this. step one: carry all the heavy materials to the chests in the smelting area...

[@1234567895182]

Do you propose an alternate solution?

[@OhKindSir]

Carts. Use carts.

[@patric97xeede]

Build it near water so you can dock with a ship

[@paulkocherhans608]

​@@patric97xeede This, I always build my refinery near the dock, ifnyou.wsnt to base further inland, tame lox, and keep a pen at the shore, so at least you save yourself a little trouble...

I have been looking for a system like this for a while now Thank you for the vid

[@beckgrit3688]

this is a pretty cool covered forge build. I did mine in a giant open stone circle

[@Sjors_23]

Most important when trying to build this - Make sure your build is aligned with some cardinal direction (North, South, East, West). Your character should face side of the map, not the corner. Otherwise it will be hard to dig straight tunnel. Great stuff OP. I've been looking long time for some practical builds!

[@Phoenix0F8]

[@tm6569]

Main problem with this build is that you would never spend the time setting this up anything past bronze/tin since you’re smelting your stuff in the biome instead of hauling home all the ore from miles away

[@MrSNJ582]

[@laszlohegyesi5243]

its really cool, only one thing what I would do is expand the under area so a cart can fit trough

[@iivin4233]

It seems like the most efficient--if miserable--mine/smelt loop consists of one smelter and one burner. If you build one of each near to every ore vein you're exploiting, your smelter and burner will have minimal downtime as they will be burning as you are mining and running ore back and forth. Taking the time to ship all your materials to a factory means you will have long periods where the factory's burners are inactive and you are stuck sailing a ship. Smelting on site removes all this downtime and, adding in a forge table, means you can craft your ingots into equipment which can be teleported. This method sucks, but it might be the fastest. I'd love to see someone math it out and prove me wrong.
