Magma smelter/forges?
I finally made the switch to DF2010. However, I can't figure out how to build magma smelters and forges. I checked b-e, nothing. Any suggestions?

You can only build them if you've discovered magma. After you find it, you'll need to dig a channel through the floor of the Z level directly above it (so you can "see" the magma through the floor). You can then build a magma forge/smelter on top the channel.
I did. I dug down until I hit molten rock, channeled out some holes, then noticed I couldn't find the magma forges and smelters.
Even checked over the holes with 'k', it said 'magma flow'.
