A player chisels at a Sapphire, allowing it to be used to make jewellery.

Crafting allows players to make various items with traditional crafting skills such as pottery, glassblowing, leatherworking, goldsmithing and silversmithing.

Crafting Guild

The Crafting Guild, southwest of Falador, is available to both members and non-members with a crafting level 40 or greater. A brown apron must be worn when players wish to enter the guild. The guild has a small mining area that contains 7 gold rocks, 6 silver rocks, and 6 clay desposits.

In the Shades of Mor'ton quest, players can form groups and build the temple from limestone bricks, planks and swamp paste using the skill. Below is a list of items that players may craft.

Craftable items

Pottery

Clay must be mined and then moistened into a workable state with some water. The soft clay may then be used on a pottery wheel then heated in a pottery oven. Items such as pots and bowls may be made this way.

Glass

Glass is made by heating sand and soda ash in a furnace. Soda ash is acquired through the burning of seaweed. Items such as vials for potions and lanterns may be made with this skill. Glassworking is a members only skill.

Spinning

Though this is not often used as a serious way to raise their crafting level, players can shear sheep and spin their wool on spinning weels to make balls of wool, which are used to string amulets so they can be worn. Members can also spin bowstrings which are used in fletching; many low level players make their money this way.

Battlestaffs

To make a battlestaff of any nature, players must have 56 crafting. Uncharged battlestaffs are bought from the magic guild or from the staff shop in Varrock. Players then may enchant glass orbs using the magic skill and attach the pieces. Players may fully upgrade their staff at Wizard Crompety in Ardougne. Battlestaffs may only be crafted by members.

Jewellery

There are different types of Jewellery players may use, and there are also different types of gems players may use in their Jewellery. Players may craft rings, necklaces, and amulets, most of which may be enchanted to serve a special purpose.

Types of Gems

Gems from Sapphire to Diamond may be found by mining any type of rock. A miner may find one randomly in any rock in RuneScape. Gems from Opal to Red Topaz may be crushed if the chiseller fails to cut them properly. All these gems, with the exception of opal, jade, and red topaz, may be made into either a ring, necklace or an amulet. They may be enchanted if the player has the appropriate Magic level and the necessary runes. While enchanting amulets is universally available, enchanting rings is limited to members servers. Gold jewellery without gems may not be enchanted.

Silversmithing

Silver is obtained with the mining skill and is used to create several items, wuch as holy and unholy symbols, tiaras, and several quest items such as the demon sigil and the silver sickle. Players may bless their holy symbols in the second level of the Monastery by talking to Brother Jared. A Prayer level of 31 is required to enter the second level of the Monastery. Players may also bless their Unholy Symbol by taking it to the Spirit of Scorpius after completing the Observatory Quest.

Weaving

Players may weave sacks or baskets for use in farming. Jute Fibers are used in weaving these. Only members may weave.

Leatherworking

Players may craft pieces of leather into leather armour by using a needle and a roll of thread with a piece of leather. Players may obtain leather by killing cows and tanning their hides. Players may work leather into all types of ranged armour, including coifs and cowls, vambraces, and chaps and tops. Players may smith studs from steel bars using the Smithing skill. Using studs on a Hardleather Body or Chaps will make them studded.

Dragonhide Leatherworking Players may craft Dragonhide from pieces of Dragon Leather, obtained by killing dragons and tanning the hides. Dragonhide armour is used in the Ranging skill. Hides from more powerful dragons results in better armour, but requires a higher level to create. Vambraces, chaps, and bodies may be created out of dragon leather. Green dragonhide is available to all players, but blue, red, and black dragonhide is for members only.

Snake Skin Armour

Players may obtain snake skins by killing Jungle Snakes in the Tai Bwo Wannai Clean Up minigame. Snake skins are used in a way similar to leather. Snake skins are relatively small and it therefore requires a number of skins to make just one piece of the SnakeSkin Armour. Larger items such as the body require more skins. It takes 46 skins to make a full set. Snake skin crafting may only be done by RuneScape members.
