Four crafting surfaces—the [[campfire]], the [[kiln]], the [[furnace]], and the [[Metalwork Bench|metalwork bench]]—require fuel to operate. This is indicated by a ten-slot "fire" fuel bar across the top of their crafting menu and a three-icon fueling menu. The fuel bar will go dark one fire slot at a time from right to left as fuel is consumed.
Five crafting surfaces — the [[campfire]], the [[kiln]], the [[furnace]], the [[Metalwork Bench|metalwork bench]], and the [[Steam Generator|steam generator]] — require fuel to operate.

If all fire slots are lit, the fueling menu is dark.

If any fire slots are dark, any fueling menu icons for items currently available in the crafting Blockhead's Inventory light up. Tapping one will add fuel to the crafting surface, re-lighting one or more fire slots. Although they use different fueling items, the icon progression is the same: the first icon restores one slot, the second two, and the third five. Over-fueling the crafting surface (such as tapping the second fueling menu icon when only one fire slot is dark) ignores any excess fuel added.

A crafting surface's fuel bar will remain as it was left at the end of the last crafting session there, advancing from that point when used again. Fuel is not consumed when no crafting is being done, or when accelerating crafting through use of [[Time Crystal|time crystals]].

Fuel is not consumed when no crafting is being done, or when accelerating crafting through use of [[Time Crystal|time crystals]]. As fuel is consumed based on time, not production, [[Double-Time]] will also reduce the fuel needed per item.


An option offered after the initial tap on all three of the fueled crafting surfaces is "Refuel." This opens a menu for refueling without crafting anything.
An option offered after the initial tap on for of the fueled crafting surfaces (all but the steam generator) is "Refuel." This opens a menu for refueling without crafting anything. A steam generator has ''only'' a refueling menu.
