"After the pig iron is melted in the long rows of furnaces, they are tapped, and the liquid fire runs into the great ladles; and then the great cranes, with their two great claws, pick up the ladles and carry them off, and pour the molten metal into crucibles, where it cools into ingots." Joseph Pennell.
