Blacksmith tables aren't just a Toolsmith work block; you can also use the table to upgrade diamond tools, so here's how to craft one in minecraft.
How to Make a Smithing Table in Minecraft
To craft a forge table, you will need four wooden planks and two iron ingots placed inside a crafting table. Place the two ingots in the top slot on the far left and in the middle, then the four wooden planks below as you go down. You will also need to leave the right side empty; If you need an example of what to do, we have the Minecraft Forge Table recipe displayed in the image below.
Then, if you don't have any of these materials, here's how to get them. To get started, to get wooden planks, all you have to do is find a tree and chop it down, preferably with an axe. After that, take the wood you get and place it either in a crafting table or in your inventory crafting square, and you'll make planks of wood. To craft iron ingots, you will need to mine iron ore underground; we recommend you find a cave and start mining, it won't take long to find iron as it spawns in almost every block level underground.

How to Use a Smithing Table in Minecraft
To use a forge table in Minecraft you will need to place it on the ground and right click on it. Then a small tab as shown below will open, and inside this tab you can upgrade all your diamond tools, weapons and armor with netherite ingots.
If you want to upgrade an item, place it in the first slot, then place a netherite ingot in the second slot. Then a netherite version of any item you put in the forge table will appear; drag it into your inventory to fully upgrade the item.
You can also use a forge table to change a villager's job to a blacksmith, which will open up more trading options with that villager.
