By 1350 blast furnaces had been invented, the earliest ones so far faound were in Lapphyttan, Sweden.

These furnaces were called "cold" blast furnaces ,to indicate that while they used a bellows or similar device to provide a steady blast of air into the furnace nothing was done to preheat the air going into the furnace.
Blast forces, for example, can overturn gas stoves and furnaces or bring flammable objects into contact with them to cause fires, as often happens in earthquakes and similar events.

Then extensive blast furnaces niust be erected for the conversion of the ore into pig metal, and a forge built for turning the pig metal into wrought iron by the processes of puddling * and rolling.
