Smithing Table

A smithing table is a utility block used to alter tools and armor at the cost of a smithing template and the appropriate material, a process that keeps all enchantments. This is the only way to obtain trimmed armor or upgrade diamond equipment with netherite. It also serves as a toolsmith's job site block.

Obtaining
Smithing tables can be obtained from a village or crafting.

Natural generation
Smithing tables can spawn naturally inside toolsmith houses in villages. They can also spawn in trail ruins.

Breaking
Smithing tables can be broken by hand, but using an axe speeds up the process.

Upgrading diamond gear to Netherite gear


While upgrading, the newly crafted netherite gear retains the enchantments, prior work penalty and number of durability points lost (instead of the remaining durability) from the diamond gear.

Upgrading gear does not remove incompatible enchantments, such as multiple different Protection enchantments.

Unlike anvils, using a smithing table to upgrade diamond gear to netherite gear costs no experience and does not increase the prior work penalty.

Smithing table recipes use the data pack system.

Changing profession
If a village contains a smithing table that has not been claimed by a villager, any villager who hasn't already chosen a job site block has a chance to change their profession to toolsmith. If a villager with this profession has already been traded with, it cannot change jobs.

Armor trimming
Trimming requires an armor piece, a smithing template and the mineral/crystal for the color the player desires (listed below).

After trimming, the armor will have the pattern according to the smithing templates. The color of the pattern is determined by the materials color.

Fuel
Smithing tables can be used as fuel in furnaces, smelting 1.5 items per block.

Note Blocks
Smithing tables can be placed under note blocks to produce "bass" sound.

Trivia

 * Like with the crafting table, none of the tools seen on the side of the smithing table are real tools in-game.
 * Even though the armor stand does not show arms when placed in Java Edition, the armor stand in the GUI has arms. This is intentional.
