	*Certain resources will produce different ~~affects~~ for ~~certain~~ crafting ~~skills~~. ~~For example~~, ~~STEEL will make stronger armor~~ (and ~~increase the level of the armor)~~ from armorsmithing..~~.but will create~~ the ~~same level~~ of ~~necklace~~ from ~~JEWELCRAFTING~~.		====Crafting Expertises====
			Each crafting skill may be affected by different Crafting expertises. See the HELP entry for the specific skill to determine which expertises are applicable.
			=====Automatically Applied Expertises=====
			*The time spent crafting can be decreased with the [[Quick_Crafting(Expertise)\|Quick Crafting]] expertises.
			=====Specified Expertises=====
			Certain expertises may be applied to crafted items, by adding the appropriate adjective in the crafting skill formula (e.g. armorsmith light reinforced exquisite gauntlet, where LIGHT, REINFORCED and EXQUISITE are available adjectives from your expertises that apply to armorsmithing). Adding an adjective in this manner will also be applied to the item name, so that other players will recognize the difference. You may preceded an adjective with the keyword HIDE to not add the adjective to the final display of the item, if desired.
			*All crafted items can benefit from [[Rushed_Crafting(Expertise)\|Rushed Crafting]].
	*Crafted armor can benefit from [[Durable_Crafting(Expertise)\|Durable Crafting]], [[Quality_Crafting(Expertise)\|Quality Crafting]] and [[Light_Crafting(Expertise)\|Light Crafting]] expertises. Each of these expertises has 3 levels. Each level allows a different adjective to be prefixed to the armor. Each armor may have at most one prefix from each of these expertises.		*Crafted armor can benefit from [[Durable_Crafting(Expertise)\|Durable Crafting]], [[Quality_Crafting(Expertise)\|Quality Crafting]] and [[Light_Crafting(Expertise)\|Light Crafting]] expertises.

	*Crafted weapons can benefit from [[Lethal_Crafting(Expertise)\|Lethal Crafting]], [[Quality_Crafting(Expertise)\|Quality Crafting]] and [[Light_Crafting(Expertise)\|Light Crafting]] expertises. Each of these expertises has 3 levels. Each level allows a different adjective to be prefixed to the armor.

	*~~You will have difficulties crafting in a room affected by [[Spell_FaerieFog\|Faerie Fog]]~~.		*Certain resources will produce different affects for certain crafting skills. For example, STEEL will make stronger armor (and increase the level of the armor) from armorsmithing...but will create the same level of necklace from JEWELCRAFTING.
	*When crafting items to be enchanted, it is often best to craft the basic item, enchant it, then apply any additional affects from dyeing, lacquering, embroidering, engraving or jewelmaking.		*Some classes may improve upon items with spells, prayers or chants.
	**If you add engraving text, the item will no longer be available for [[Spell_MagicItem\|Magic Item]] until you disenchant it.		**When crafting items to be enchanted, it is often best to craft the basic item, enchant it, then apply any additional affects from dyeing, lacquering, embroidering, engraving or jewelmaking.

 When changing the room title (not the ownership paper, but the room name), there are a variety of non-traditional tricks one may use to customize it.
 *You can add an intentional carriage return using the %0D or \n line breaks.

			===Gathering Skill Commands===
			These commands are common to all crafting skills:
			====BUNDLE====
			This handy parameter for gathering skills allows you to create a special type of [[PACKAGE]] of resources called a "bundle". Bundle accepts a number parameter and a target parameter. The number may be any integer or the word "ALL". The bundle will fail if any of the following conditions exists:
			*There are fewer resources than the specified number.
			*Two or more resources within the first [NUMBER] range have different properties. For example, if you try to BUNDLE 10 APPLES and the third apple has already gone rotten, you will receive a message that there aren't enough resources here to bundle. If you BUNDLE 2 APPLES, it would work, since the first and second apple are fine. If you [[SNIFF]] out the rotten apple and remove it from the room, and then BUNDLE 9 APPLES, your bundle would succeed. There are a broad range of possible reasons resources are different and preventing bundling.
