Board Thread:Suggestions forum/@comment-173.95.147.99-20150930042047

Alright, so I have had this idea for about a year now, and I just realized there was a LOTR suggestions forum. So my idea is there should be a new armor/tool/weapon crafting system. For metal crafting there would be a molten metal system in which you would place ore/ingots into to make molten metal. You must put buckets in the machine to fill them with the molten (metal). Next there would be molds for different weapons (spear heads, sword blades, dagger blades, bow/crossbow limbs, warhammer heads, pickaxes heads, etc.) and you would have to place the ammount of molten (metal) buckets required in the mold GUI corresponding to how many ingots it takes to make that weapon in the current crafting tables (2 ingots for a sword in a crafting table means 2 molten (metal) buckets in the mold. Wait for the mold to harden and there you go. You just made a sword... wait, there is no grip! My sollution is you must wrap wool/string/wire/wrappings around the tang with the corresponding crafting table. If its something like a tool or weapon that uses a sort of small pole or stick as a handle, then there can be long/short handles. For non-metal crafting (like leather or warg fur) then there should be some kind of sewing system that uses up string as a fuel and you have to use a faction-specific machine to make it.
