Beginning some time before the 5th century BC and continuing thereafter, the Chinese developed a process for producing molten cast iron which they applied to the manufacture in large numbers of implements, tools and hardware. Mass production techniques utilizing cast iron permanent molds and stacked clay molds are described. The tools were composites of working tips or heads of metal and wooden handles attached as a slipper fit or through a socket hole. Some degree of toughness to resist cracking or spalling was imparted by heat treatments of the cast iron. The availability of such tools for agriculture, road and canal building, mining and quarrying must have provided the bases for urbanization and national organization
