num   item           skill    material
---   ----           -----    --------
 72   longbow         617     yew [68]
 73   plate armor     617     iron [79]
 74   longsword       617     iron [79]
 75   pike            617     wood [77]
 84   blank scroll    690     lana bark [64]
 85   crossbow        617     wood [77]
 94   woven basket   none     none
 95   clay pot       none     none
 99   hides          none     ox [76]

Knowledge of Weaponsmithing [617], a subskill of Combat [610], is required to make weapons and armor. Alchemy [690] must be known to produce blank scrolls from lana bark. No skills or input materials are needed to make woven baskets or clay pots.

Examples:

To make 5 longbows from 5 yew (a kind of wood):

make 72 5               # takes 5 days

To make 1 plate armor from 1 iron:

make 73 1               # takes 1 day

To make 5 woven baskets:

make 94 5               # takes 5 days

Although making pots and baskets is considered menial labor, some desperate nobles have resorted to selling them in cities to earn gold. Each city in Olympia either buys woven baskets or clay pots.
