The factory must grow.

I will say that if 40 more furnaces seems like "tryhard" at this point, you're pretty quickly going to run up against shortages of whatever you're smelting as you try to make later stuff. But that's just the nature of the game. As a handy reference, 48 stone furnaces will saturate a yellow belt if you fill both sides (by extension, 48 steel furnaces will saturate a red belt, or 72 for blue), so don't bother extending your furnace stacks further than that (though creating parallel ones is highly recommended).

My initial base is rather windy; I don't have straight assembly lines so I'm basically running on 4 steel furnaces per resource... by current bottleneck is engines for Blue Potion.
