-[[Ingot (Invar)]] is a metal alloy. It is used in crafting of various items. It is loosely based on the real-life Invar alloy, that is notable for its low thermal expansion coefficient and chemical resistance compared to pure iron. As such, it is used in fabrication of more advanced devices and items associated with high temperatures or pressures, precise mechanics, and few unrelated items.

+It is created by smelting equal parts [[Iron Ore|Iron]] and [[Nickel Ore|Nickel]] in a [[Furnace]]. Requiring higher-than-normal temperature, production of Invar notoriously requires a narrow band of pressure. In general, that can be achieved by feeding the Furnace with sufficient amount of fuel, then by releasing exhaust gases until the required pressure is reached, while the temperature remains sufficiently high.
