    fishing rods were craftable at one point. so were cubit measures. right now, cooking pots and cleavers can be crafted. none of those ever had material effects, though

    We do have the engraving kits for all the tools which give different material bonuses. The problem was always that the speed at which you shredded tools (esp. refining ones!) really encourages everyone to just buy a prosperity set and be done with it. I'd love to see better crafted tools too, but they'd have to be significantly better to sit there and feed it a repair kit every couple minutes - not from a cost perspective mind you, but just from a sheer annoyance perspective.

    One thing that I think would be interesting would be if we could craft some of the NPC bought tools, like chisels/molds/etc. (Well, let's face it, if there was a prosperity tool/hammer/needle set I'd buy in a heartbeat) but we've been told that despite the silly costs of fuels, crafting needs another cash sink so this wont happen. The reality is the cash sink is minimal, its the irritatation of "oh hell, I need a wood rasp" and having to trudge over to the vendor slowly while carrying 80,000 pounds of wood scrap to buy a bunch of these, which you shred really quick so you buy like 10, then you end up putting them away when you get interrupted from what you're doing, so you throw them in a box, and next time you can't find them, so you buy more, and then you come back to the game after some months off, organize your stuff, and find over a thousand rasps, needles, mallets, various molds, etc. ABSOLUTELY EVERYWHERE when you try to organize your stuff and just destroy them all in a fit of ocd rage!

    So, it would be of interest to me if I could craft sturdier variants of these tools, if prosperities are off the table - or hell, even BUY higher dura versions for a congruent increase in cost. If I'm going to smelt for a couple of hours, give me an ingot mold with 1000 charges or 10,000 even - if its about the gold spend, just add a couple zeroes to the dura and the price.

    Or you know, let's just rise above - Prosperity Universal Mold - counts as any mold. Prosperity SuperChisel - ditto. Prossperity Needle, Hammer, Rasp, Pliers, Angle Finder, etc. That's best solution of all and I guarantee at least several purchases from my household.
