    A blank sheet of paper weighs 1 lb.

    In comparison:
    Greenhouse 50 lbs.
    Axe of Prosperity 1 lb.
    Repair Kit 1 lb.

    .01 would make more sense. On that note, how do we know the measurements are in pounds? Traditionally, shouldn't we be using stones?

    If you turn wood into planks, the planks weigh more than the wood plus "chemicals" that they were made from. So it only makes sense that paper would be even heavier yet!

    yeah, neither mass nor conservation of mass seems to be considered at the moment. Less weight may be reasonable but more...

    I'm still amazed by the amount of metal you need to forge a full set of plate. Or how you put two ingots and another raw material and hell lot of coal to produce only one ingot of the alloy. How much waste is that? Novian blacksmiths could use some optimization in their crafts.
