The Furnace and Forge are found at your base camp but must be rebuilt using the proper supplies. Iron is the hardest to find, but a patch of iron ore is just beyond your base camp. Find the red spot within the stone and mine until you have enough. Keep in mind you need iron to create a Repair Smithy to fix your broken items, so use iron sparingly.
