Crafting
From the RuneScape Wiki, the wiki for all things RuneScape
- For the skill of rune creation, see Runecrafting.
Crafting is a varied skill which enables players to produce items such as jewellery, armour, and pottery for use or trade. At level 40 Crafting, while wearing a brown apron obtained from the Varrock clothes store, a player can enter the Crafting Guild. Crafting is (along-side Runecrafting) 1 of the 2 Free-to-play skills not mentioned on Tutorial Island. The current minimum requirement to be ranked (at rank 2,000,000) on the hiscores for Crafting is level 40.
[edit] Pottery
Pottery is the craft of turning Soft clay into pottery objects. Soft clay can be obtained either by mining Clay and using it with a bucket of water, or mining with a Bracelet of clay, which will remove the need to add water. Once soft clay is obtained, it can be used on a Potter's wheel to make the object desired, which is then fired in a Pottery oven.

[edit] Leather crafting
[edit] Cowhide
To begin leather crafting, players need a needle and thread, normally purchased from the Al-Kharid or Rimmington craft shop, and some cowhide tanned into leather. In the free-to-play world, this means visiting the tanner in Al-Kharid, until players are able to enter the guild. Tanning costs 1 coin per ordinary leather, and 3 coins for the hard leather used to make a hard leather body. There is also a more expensive tannery in Canifis. Note: You can also make easy money by buying cowhides from the Grand Exchange for around 129 coins each, going to Al-Kharid, and making the hide into hard leather, which sells for about 181 coins each.
The cattle field east of Lumbridge is a convenient spot for leather crafters, since it is normally largely populated and easy to get to. Since getting from the Al-Kharid tanner to the Lumbridge cow pens frequently requires players to cross the Al-Kharid toll gate, it is advisable for players to complete Prince Ali Rescue to reduce cost. Players can also head north from the gate until they get to Ali the leaflet dropper, where they can go south again on the other side of the fence. Another convenient location to obtain cowhide in a free-to-play world is near the gnome copters as there is a field with cows and a merchant named Beefy Bill who can store your cowhide, flour, and meat for 10% commission nearby. The efficiency of this area is arguable, since the cows are widespread and the area contains many obstacles. The field just south of Falador is also convenient, since there are many more cows together in a smaller place, allowing faster kills. The distance to the bank for this field is longer than the gnome copters field, but shorter than field east of Lumbridge.

| Leather chaps | 18 | 27 | Best non-member's experience for soft leather. Can be worn in the leg slot. | |
| Hard leather body | 28 | 35 | As the name suggests, it is made from hard leather. | |
| Spiky vambraces | 32 | 6 | Attach kebbit claws to any vambraces (normal or dragonhide). | |
| Coif | 38 | 37 | Can be worn in the head slot. Gives better ranged bonus than Cowl | |
| Studded body | 41 | 65 | Can be worn in the torso slot. Gives better ranged bonus than Leather body | |
| Studded chaps | 44 | 69 | Can be worn in the leg slot. Gives better ranged bonus than Leather chaps |
Studded leather items are made by smithing steel studs (level 36) and adding them to the completed leather item.
[edit] Snakeskin
Snakeskins are found by killing Snakes on the island of Mos Le'Harmless, during the Tai Bwo Wannai cleanup mini-game and during the Temple Trekking mini-game. They can be tanned for 15 coins each, and then crafted using a needle and thread.
Snakeskins are also used to make tribal masks into Broodoo shields. A member can make snakeskins into items of snakeskin armour, as shown on the table below, if they have a needle and thread. However this method is quite rare as it doesn't give the desired amount of crafting with other things such as jewellery and it can be quite costly accumulating the large amount of snakeskins required.

| Image | Item | Level | Exp | Snakeskins | Average Exp per Snakeskin |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Snakeskin boots | 45 | 30 | 6 | 5 | |
| Snakeskin vambraces | 47 | 35 | 8 | 43/8 | |
| Snakeskin bandana | 48 | 45 | 5 | 9 | |
| Snakeskin chaps | 51 | 50 | 12 | 41/6 | |
| Snakeskin body | 53 | 55 | 15 | 32/3 |
[edit] Yak hide
After starting The Fremennik Isles quest, members can kill Yaks to obtain Yak-hides and make them into Fremennik armour pieces. The Yak hides need to be cured for 5 coins to become craftable. It is not advised to make bodies for experience because you lose an extra hide in the process.
| Image | Item | Level | Exp | Yak-hides | Average Exp per Yak-hide | High alchemy |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Yak-hide legs | 43 | 32 | 1 | 32 | 300 | |
| Yak-hide body | 46 | 32 | 2 | 16 | 300 |
[edit] Dragonhides
This is extremely similar to normal leather crafting, except that
- It costs 20 coins to tan each leather.
- Players can only make vambraces, chaps, and bodies.
- It is generally a good idea to use high alchemy on dragonhide bodies or vambraces rather than chaps, as chaps get fewer coins per hide than vambraces.
- Obtaining dragonhides is very slow, but good money.
- Buying dragonhides is faster, but players tend to pay more than the high-alchemy value.
- Players may also attach kebbit claws to any vambraces to make spiky vambraces; these add a +2 Strength bonus to the vambraces, and gives 6 crafting experience. This does not change the high alchemy value for the items.
- Only members can craft dragonhide items.
- using a Sacred clay needle is strongly advised when crafting dragon hides. It more than halves the cost of crafting without a loss of speed.

[edit] Glass
Glass is a members only part of the crafting skill. You will need- A glassblowing pipe . They can be obtained from various places, including respawn points on Entrana and in Hemenster. They can also be purchased from Dorgesh-Kaan and the Piscatoris Fishing Colony.
- Buckets of sand. There are sand pits in Yanille, in Rellekka, on Entrana, in Dorgesh-Kaan and in the Lost City. Use an empty bucket with a sand-pit to get a bucket of sand. If you complete the Hand in the Sand quest, you can get 84 buckets of sand a day delivered to your bank free of charge if you talk to Bert in Yanille or contact him via the NPC Contact spell in the Lunar Magic Spell book.
- Soda ash, which is made by burning seaweed (or possibly swamp weed) on a range or fire (Please note that burning seaweed into soda ash grants the player no experience in any skill and is very time consuming). There are numerous seaweed spawns on Entrana, on Karamja, or it can be fished through using a big net. There are 2 fairly quick spawns in the Piscatoris fishing colony. Arhein, the general store owner in Catherby, will sell eighty a day to each player. Simply talk to him and ask about buying seaweeds. They cost 2 gp each. If you do not buy your full allotment, then what ever amount remains from the eighty is all he will sell to you the next time.
- When you have all of the ingredients, use a bucket of sand and soda ash in a furnace to create molten glass. The lunar spell Superglass Make also can be used to convert soda ashes and buckets of sand into molten glass. The spell also works with seaweed, saving the large amount time used on cooking it into soda ash. Your buckets will be destroyed during this process. You will get 10 Crafting experience for each molten glass created using this spell rather, than the normal 20 with a furnace, but you will also make between one and ten extra molten glass.
- Use the glass-blowing pipe with the molten glass to blow various items.
| Image | Item | Level | Exp | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Molten Glass | 1 | 20 | Can be sold for 20 gold pieces to Fritz the Glassblower on Entrana. | |
| Beer glass | 1 | 17.5 | Can be filled by beer barrels. | |
| Candle lantern | 4 | 19 | Can be lit to lighten dark areas. | |
| Oil lamp | 12 | 25 | Can be lit to lighten dark areas. | |
| Vial | 33 | 35 | Can be filled with liquid used in quests or Herblore skill. | |
| Fishbowl | 42 | 42.5 | Can be used to contain pet fish or in Recipe for Disaster Pirate Pete part. | |
| Unpowered orb | 46 | 52.5 | Can be powered into any four of the elemental orbs. | |
| Lantern lens | 49 | 55 | Can be combined with lantern frames. | |
| Dorgeshuun light orb | 87 | 70 | Can be traded only after adding a Cave goblin wire to it. |
[edit] Locations
Entrana is a perfect place to blow glass, as it has respawns for glassblowing pipe and seaweed and has a sand pit, range and furnace. Dorgesh-Kaan also has a sand pit next to a furnace. Molanisks, which can be found just south of the city, drop swamp weed, a suitable substitute for seaweed. There is also a range just to the east of the furnace, making Dorgesh-Kaan an effective place to blow glass. For further crafting experience one can add a Cave goblin wire to a light orb. Copper wire is thieved from a machine next to the furnace in Dorgesh-Kaan (level 22 thieving required and 22 Thieving experience gained). Adding the wire gives 104 crafting experience (level 87 required).
[edit] Stills and Oil Lamps
If you want to fill oil lamps with Lamp oil, you need to use a piece of swamp tar on a still with an empty oil lamp in your inventory. There are 2 stills in RuneScape. One is in the scientists house in Rimmington used during The Biohazard Quest, which was the only still in RuneScape for a majority of its history. As a part of the Dorgesh-Kaan opening, a lamp stall was put in the Market place, with a still on a nearby table.
[edit] Battlestaves
The orbs you create through glassblowing can be enchanted at various obelisks. You can then use them to create elemental battlestaves and make a nice profit with high-alchemy. An elemental battlestaff can be created by using a charged orb with a battlestaff. A battlestaff may be bought in Zaff's Superior Staffs! in Varrock or Baba Yaga's Magic store on Lunar Isle. The stock at Zaff's increases if you are wearing Varrock armour obtained by finishing sections of the Varrock Achievement Diary. Baba Yaga's shop stocks a maximum of 20 staves. Blank staves cost 7000 coins at Zaff's, and the market price at Baba Yaga's, which is generally 8000-8300 coins (finished battlestaves with orbs yield 9300 coins after high-alchemy). Given the common practice of players to buy their dayly dose of 64 noted battlestaff items and sell them at a modest profit, it is a very interesting way to level crafting. Depending on GE prices for charged orbs, attaching orbs to a battlestaff can be a low cost way to train crafting. The only catch is the high cost of the items which requires a significant working capital.
| Item | Level | Exp | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water battlestaff | 54 | 100 | The water obelisk is located deep in Taverley Dungeon up a ladder by the Black Dragons. Having high Agility will give you access to shortcuts on your way to the obelisk. | |
| Earth battlestaff | 58 | 112.5 | The earth obelisk is located in the members part of Edgeville Dungeon, in level 2 wilderness. You will find it south of the Black Demons, near Chronozon and some Poison Spiders. | |
| Fire battlestaff | 62 | 125 | The fire obelisk is located deep in Taverley Dungeon west of the Black Dragons. Having high Agility will give you access to shortcuts on your way to the obelisk. | |
| Air battlestaff | 66 | 137.5 | The air obelisk is located in the members part of Edgeville Dungeon, in level 7 wilderness. You will find it north of the Black Demons, up a ladder. |
Battlestaves are one of the most profitable things you can make in RuneScape and give from 172 to 210 experience when you do all steps yourself, from making the glass, blowing the orbs, and attaching to staffs.
- Buy lots of buckets! Another way of obtaining large numbers of buckets is by speaking to Bert in Yanille. If you have completed The Hand in the Sand quest he will offer to give you 84 buckets of sand every day. You will also save the chore of filling them with sand.
- Once you have about 500 buckets you can start making battlestaves, skills required:
- Magic: 60 (66 highly recommended)
- Runecrafting: 27 (44 highly recommended, 54 is even better)
- Crafting: 58 (64 highly recommended)
- Quests required: Lost City
- Items required: Buckets, glassblowing pipe
- Collect seaweed on Entrana whilst law-crafting , and burn the seaweed on a range on the way to the bank. (Note that you can burn seaweed on a fire too.) You can sell the laws later.
Arhein on the dock in Catherby will sell you 80 seaweed a day if you talk to him instead of trading him. He will also sell you 40 pineapples, great for supercompost. An alternative is to take charged amulets of glory and bank at Draynor instead. You'll get more laws and more seaweed this way, but you'll have to burn later, and plan a trip to the Heroes Guild to recharge your amulets. Another option is to collect it from people dropping in Catherby, or simply buy it from the people doing big net fishing there, or collect in Piscatoris while catching monkfish. Seaweed and soda ash sell for 100-200 coins each.
- Go to the Lost City of Zanaris and fill your buckets with sand. Alternatively, Yanille is a good place to get sand (see below, free daily sand delivered).
- Go to Al-Kharid and make some molten glass.
- Make your glass into orbs.
- Go to Edgeville Dungeon/Taverley Dungeon and then charge your orbs.
- For earth or air orbs: Take appropriate staff (wielded), your choice of armour (worn),fill inventory with uncharged orbs and 3 cosmics for each orb. The earth obelisk is south of the black demons next to Chronozon (part of the Family Crest quest), air obelisk is north of the demons up a ladder. When doing airs, bring a law for a quick tele. For earths, any one click tele will do.
- Use an amulet of glory to teleport back to Edgeville to make faster round trips.
- For water or fire orbs: Take a water (or fire) staff (wielded), your choice of armour (worn), dragonfire shield (worn), 1 anti-poison, a key to get through gate if player can not use either agility shortcut, a worn teleport, and fill rest of inventory with uncharged orbs and cosmic runes (3 per orb). The water obelisk is next to the black dragons, up a ladder and the fire obelisk is west of the black dragons. Note that making water and fire orbs is a really long trip and it's highly recommended that you make earth or air orbs instead. High agility gives a couple of possible shortcuts in the dungeon, as well as an escape from the water obelisk island using a mithril grapple & crossbow.
- Once your cash is exhausted from buying staves, attach all the orbs to the battlestaves and make 9300 coins each with high alchemy.
- The most economical method is to have Varrock armour 3 to buy 64 staves daily from Zaff, talk to Bert to get your 84 buckets of sand delivered daily (requires Hand in the sand quest), and buy seaweed from from Arhein in Catherby. This limits you to 64 a day at the highest profit margin. Collect materials for several days and then actually make and alch your staffs.
[edit] Silver
Silver items can be crafted by using a silver bar on a furnace while carrying the proper mould. The items you can make are displayed below.
| Image | Item | Level | Exp | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Holy symbol | 16 | 50 | Needs to be strung with a ball of wool and then blessed. | |
| Unholy symbol | 17 | 50 | Needs to be strung with a ball of wool and then blessed. Can only be made after the Observatory Quest. | |
| Silver sickle | 18 | 50 | Can only be made during and after the Nature Spirit quest. | |
| Lightning rod | 20 | 50 | Can only be made during and after the Creature of Fenkenstrain quest. | |
| Demonic sigil | 20 | 50 | Can only be made during and after the Shadow of the Storm quest. | |
| Silver bolts (10) | 21 | 50 | Add feathers to finish the bolts. | |
| Tiara | 23 | 52.5 | Used in runecrafting. |
[edit] Gold jewellery and gems
For gold crafting, you need:
- Gold bars. Mine gold ore and smelt it into bars.
- A ring, necklace, bracelet or amulet mould, purchased from a craft shop or Grand Exchange, or freely acquired from a Tool store 4 in a player-owned house.
- You may include a cut gem. Cutting it with a chisel also provides significant crafting experience. Gems can be obtained while mining. They can also be bought in Keldagrim, Falador, Al-Kharid, and East Ardougne Market.
Gold items are made by using a gold bar with a furnace, while carrying a mould and any cut gems you wish to use. The items that you have the ingredients to make will be displayed by the resulting interface.
Be aware that crafting jewellery without gems gives very little experience compared to clay and silver.
[edit] Immense Heat
Immense Heat is a special move for Pyrelords. Players can smelt a gold bar (and a gem if one wishes) into an item of Jewellery without using a furnace, providing they have the required crafting level.

Unstrung amulets can be sold at a general store. In order to sell amulets at Grum's in Port Sarim or enchant them, they must be strung, using a ball of wool.
Stringing an amulet gives an additional 4 experience per amulet, and spinning the ball of wool is another 2.75.
[edit] High Alchemy versus Crafting Experience
Magic skills can be used on gold jewellery to be High alched into coins.
Amulets give more crafting experience, but bracelets pay more with High alchemy.

Magic can also be used to enchant gold jewellery into powerful equipment for adding combat bonuses, transportation, etc.
[edit] Shilo Village gems
Shilo Village gems are members only and cannot be used to make jewellery. You receive experience only for cutting them. These gems may crush when you attempt to cut them.
Shilo Village gems can be obtained from:
- Gem mines in Shilo Village (after completing Shilo Village quest)
- Underground Shilo Village gem mine using Karamja gloves 3 after completing the hard tasks of the Karamja Diary
- Gem mines in the dungeon on Lunar Isle
- Cutting down "jungle" in Tai Bwo Wannai cleanup gives a small chance of a 3-gem mine
- Opening Zogre tombs
- Panning at the Digsite after the Panning instructor lets you
- Taken from crate in Varrock Museum in exchange for uninteresting digsite specimens.
- Pickpocketed from HAM members
| Image | Item | Level | Experience |
|---|---|---|---|
| Opal | 1 | 15 | |
| Jade | 13 | 20 | |
| Red Topaz | 16 | 25 |
All gems, including the Shilo Village gems, can be used for making gem-tipped bolts for crossbows with the Fletching skill. These bolts can be enchanted with the Magic skill. Shilo village gems are also used for multiple purposes in the Tai Bwo Wannai cleanup minigame.
[edit] Rogue's Den
An often overlooked corner of the crafting (and sometimes thieving) world is the Rogue's Den. Crafting experience lies not in the course, but in the wall safes at the entrance. Players looking to work multiple skills can crack the safes, which yield coins in 10, 20, or 40 increments or (the main lure to crafters) gems from sapphire to diamond. These gems can be sold for profit or used to further train crafting through the crafting of jewellery.
While a player may not receive a gem every time, it is efficient as it does not require but a second for a safe to respawn. As well, unlike its thieving companion pickpocketing there is no stun period to deal with. A major advantage is the extreme proximity of a bank to store ones ill gotten gains. Unlike the gem rocks of the Shilo Village, a player doesn't have to deal with gems below sapphires which yield comparatively lower experience and can occasionally be crushed. If a player pursues this crafting route, it is advised to have food stored in the nearby bank as failure to crack the wall safes can result in 2~6 damage (but no stun period). It is also recommended that a player purchase a stethoscope in the Rogue's Den for use when cracking safes. A stethoscope is sold for approximately 10 gp in the den. The Rogue's Den is typically moderately populated, but this is not for the wall safes or agility/thieving course. Instead, these players train the cooking skills since this area has one of the closest "everlasting" fires to a bank in all of RuneScape.
Note the wall safes do require 50 thieving.
[edit] Miscellaneous
[edit] Coloured capes
Capes can be purchased from the Varrock clothes shop or collected by killing highwaymen south of Falador. Dyes are made for you by Aggie in Draynor Village, at a cost of 5 coins plus the ingredients. There is also a purple dye spawn south of Ardougne.Also, players may buy any colour dye in the store in Lletya for 3 coins a piece
With just 2 experience for a single dye and 3 for a mixed dye, this is not good value, though many players like to wear a coloured cape to signify clan allegiance, or just because it looks good.
| Action | Unfinished Product | Level | Experience | Finished Product |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dying Cape | Cape | 1 | 2 | Cape |
[edit] Fremennik Roundshields
After the beginning of The Fremennik Isles quest, members can combine woodcutting with crafting by making Fremennik roundshields. Making a roundshield requires 1 bronze nail, 1 rope and 2 arctic pine logs, and a hammer to craft it. The crafting of the shield gives 34 crafting experience.
[edit] Gloves of Silence
At level 64 crafting, you can repair Gloves of silence with a dark kebbit fur, needle, and thread. Wearing Gloves of silence decreases the failing rate when pickpocketing NPCs.
[edit] Feather headdress
At level 79 crafting use 20 coloured feathers on a coif to make a Feather headdress for 50 experience.
[edit] Shades of Mort'ton (minigame)
In the Shades of Mort'ton (minigame), building and repairing the Temple of Mort'ton requires 3 building resources.
| Building resource | price | 5% | 100% |
|---|---|---|---|
| Limestone brick | 21 coins | 1 | 20 |
| Timber beam or Plank | 1 or 100 coins, respectively | 1 | 20 |
| Swamp paste | 31 coins | 5 | 100 |
Using a Flamtaer hammer gives 3-30 Crafting experience per second. An average of 12-15,000 xp per hour can be earned.
[edit] Spinning
| Action | Raw Material | Level | Experience | Finished Product | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spinning Wool | Wool | 1 | 2.75 | Ball of wool | ||
| Spinning Flax | Flax | 10 | 15 | Bow string | ||
| Spinning Sinew | Sinew | 10 | 15 | Crossbow string | ||
| Spinning tree roots | Roots | 10 | 15 | |||
| Spinning magic roots | Magic roots | 19 | 30 | Magic string | ||
| Spinning Yak hair | Yak hair | 30 | 25 | Rope | ||
| Spinning Seaweed net | 52 | Seaweed net | ||||
Note that it is a good idea to earn both experience and money with flax and the Grand Exchange : Flax costs 81 coins each while bowstrings cost 193, which is approximately double. It is suggested that players buy a large amount of Flax , then spin it in a convenient location, such as Lumbridge, then sell the bowstrings on the Grand Exchange, which is in moderate demand among players. If player has finished Fremennik Isles quest, it would be a lot faster to spin flax using the bank chest one click away. Low level players can make up to 200k an hour by doing the process.
Players that have completed Throne of Miscellania quest can get a maximum of 1250 flax from their subjects daily.
Also, players wearing the Seers' headband 2 or better while spinning on Seers' Village gets the spinning time cut considerably, allowing more flax spun in less time.
[edit] Snelms
In the Mort Myre swamp, there are snails that drop shells when killed. You can use a chisel with these shells to create snelms. Each snelm made gives 32.5 experience. Snelms come in two varieties - pointed and rounded.
| Action | Level | Experience | Finished Product |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cutting Snelm | 15 | 32.5 | Blood n' tar snelm |
| Cutting Snelm | 15 | 32.5 | Broken bark snelm |
| Cutting Snelm | 15 | 32.5 | Bruise blue snelm |
| Cutting Snelm | 15 | 32.5 | Myre snelm |
