Craft on RuneScape

Why should you master crafting? You could make a lot of money forging metals and ores into armor, and you can also use the skill of crafting to turn metals into jewelry. Players love to adorn their characters with necklaces and amulets, so a master jewelry maker can become a very wealthy player.

Crafting also has many practical applications. If you love cooking, you can craft your own pie dishes. If you like to battle, knowing how to craft leather armor is a handy skill.

Steps

Members Method

  1. Get 10 crafting by one of the ways listed below
  2. Become a member
  3. Go to Seers village and pick flax to the south
  4. Make bowstrings from the flax between the flax and the bank
  5. Sell bowstrings 180 each
  6. Ask around if you don't understand any of this
  7. This is a really fast and a really money profiting way to craft
  8. Go to varrock and talk to Zaff
  9. Start with clay, which you can get by Mine in RuneScape. Soften the clay with water. Take the clay to a potter's wheel (try the Barbarian Village). Use the clay on the potter's wheel and select what object you want to make. If you have the necessary level, you will be able to make the item. Take the item to a pottery oven to fire it. If it doesn't crack upon heating, you'll end up with a nice piece of pottery.

Free Player Method

  1. Start with cowhides which you can get by going to a cow field and killing some cows to make leather. Take the cowhide to Ellis the Tanner in Al-Kharid. There you can turn the hide into normal or hard leather. Hard leather is stronger but costs a little more to make. Once you turn your hide into leather, you can craft it into a useful item, like a pair of boots or a piece of armor. If you have enough thread in your inventory, click on the item you want to make to craft it.
  2. Finding a gem is very lucky. You can make it more valuable by cutting it. You can use a cut gem when you are making gold jewelry. First, buy a chisel from a general store or crafting shop. Select the chisel from your inventory and then the gem you wish to cut. If your crafting level is not high enough to cut the gem, you might want to make some more pottery to increase your XP.
  3. Use silver bars to make symbols that will make your prayers last longer. These are called "Holy Symbols". To craft holy symbols you must obtain a holy mould. Use your silver bar on the furnace to make your holy symbol. To finish the symbol, you will need to make some string. Use shears (from a general store) to get wool from a sheep. Spin the wool on a spinning wheel into a ball. Use your ball of wool on your holy symbol to give it a string. If you have a prayer level of 31 or higher, you can take the symbol to Brother Jered in the Monastery to be blessed.
