there are the books that were writen and used more then a hundred
years ago.  they might get you the specific information you need. i
remember going to a waterwheel that ground flour and corn. they gave
out booklets on the entire process of bread making. it was a tourist
spot more then 20 years ago.. :)

metalmaking is split into several areas. smelting.(or refining).
smithing.(swordsmith,armorsmith,blacksmith). tempering(modern age add
on)

smelting should be a seprate area of skills. takes different tools and
ores to make brass,bronze,iron,copper,silver,etc...  different
temperature fires. different techniques to purify each metal.....

smithing is simple. heat and hammer, heat and hammer, quench, heat and
hammer, etc...  the difference between weaponsmiths,armorsmiths and
blacksmiths is mostly in the anvil and the tools. the skills are the
same. there are specifics that must be learned to excell such as fault
lines, heating tempatures, etc...
