GUIless, good idea, and botania is virtually GUIless:

1.Blacksmiths Avil, Hammer, Tongs, Gloves, and Forge:

Blacksmiths Anvil:

Recipe:

IBB

XIX

PPP

where i is ingot, B is block, X is nothing, and P is iron preassure plate, this will look like a RL anvil (have a curve on one side, otherwise a similar to normal anvil)

Blacksmiths Hammer:

Recipe:

XII

XSI

SXX

where X is nothing, I is ingot, and S is stick, this will be the gondorian blacksmith hammer, and will now be factionless.

Blacksmiths Forge:

Open Flames... not sure how to do this, but here's an idea:

BLB

BBB

where B is a stone type of brick, and L is a log. this will appear like a stone brick rimmed beacon, and is lit similarly (lasts for 1 minute, then fizzles out burning 1 log (starts with 1) this can hold up to 5 logs at once, and th flame will shrink with the time, but not become less effective.

Blacksmiths Tongs:

IXI

IXI

XIX

where I is ingot and X is empty, this is another of the blacksmiths tools

Backsmiths Gloves:

LXL

where L is a leather/hide (not fur), and X is nothing, these could be equipped in chestplate, or a new glove slot

Uses:

off-hand slot: this is required for some procedures that will be mentioned in the rest of this comment.

Tongs, these are used to heat items in a fire by having the tongs in your main hand and a damaged, or broken item in the other, this will give a 'heated in the offhand slot.

Forge, a fire, this is used with the tongs to heat items, if used without gloves it will have consequenses (1 heart fire damage, armor piercing)

Gloves: protect player from the fires of a blacksmiths forge.

Anvil: this anvil will be damaged with use, similar to a normal anvil, but it will advance 1/2px (50% opacity for 1 break pixel) per use, once the breaking webs the entire anvil, and it is used again it will break (dropping a few iron nuggets as shards)

Hammer: this is used in the forging process as well, with a heated item in your off-hand you can forge it by right clicking the anvil with this hammer a nugget or ingot (not block) of the repair material must be present in inventory for this to work, with the material repairing X% based on the item. also if the item is at full durability this will 'sharpen' the blade, increasing damage of sharp weapons (swords, spears, battleaxes, pikes, daggers) by 0.5, but lowering max durability by 1/8, breaking the weapon if the durability is at 1/8 max. it wont work on blunt weapons though, unless there is another ingot present (increasing attack by 0.5, but instead of lowering durability it will lower attack speed by 3%
