Differences, I think, may be that - running a forge isn’t something you can do alone (even if lighting a forge and doing the blacksmithing is doable for a single person, you still have to get the fuel for the forge, which typically is charcoal, coal, or coke) - running a forge isn’t something you do in small pieces of natural downtime.
