A magma forge is a Template:L which does not require Template:L or other Template:L, as long as it is positioned over Template:L. In order to function, the forge must be exactly one Z-level above a lava or magma square. Magma forges cannot draw from many Z-levels below themselves as Template:L can. It must be built of Template:L
A magma forge will not function unless at least one of its eight edge squares hangs over a channel which has magma at a depth of 4/7 or more. Template:L will not roast when working inside a magma forge, unlike the unlucky soldiers you station right next to the vent.
Note that if the magma depth falls below 4/7, even for a moment, the forge will immediately cancel all of its jobs. If the forge has been claimed by a dwarf in a Template:L, this will result in instant Template:L, even if the forge returns to normal a moment later. For this reason it is advisable that you isolate the magma supply for your magma workshops from your other magma plumbing, and if possible use Template:L floodgates or some other method to seal the magma into a separate channel solely for the use of the workshops.
