your own items, based on the type of item it is for which craft skill is involved.
When crafting a mundane item from any of the lists, you use the craft item with skillname
and it pulls up a list of materials you can use with it if you have any applicable. So, if you wanted to make an iron pistol, you'd do craft pistol with weaponsmith
with a billet of iron in your inventory. Once past the materials menu, you have a number of fields to fill out.
Lists your material type and quality.
Lets you set the file name which is used for making copies and bringing up information on your previously crafted mundane items.
Actual item name. Doesn't seem to be used a whole ton?
Size of the item. For armor and jewelry, it's best to pick something your race size or it won't generally fit. Weapons cannot be changed in size.
Identifying tags for interaction. When you look sword
and look at an iron longsword, it has had “sword” set as an ID, which may also include “iron sword”, “iron longsword”, and just “longsword”. You can insert multiple, but don't use spaces between the commas to separate them.
The appearance of your item on the ground and in your inventory, also when people look at you. Note that the material name (I.E. iron) and the item type (I.E. pistol) are required in your short description. You cannot break up these two words with coloring them with multiple different colors in a single word, but you can make them a singular different color per word.

the item successfully. If you have a highly customized weapon with a trade mark only you usually use, then you could add your own lore and link it to your character through these recognized traits.

craft enchant
brings up a menu for you which may be a bit overwhelming at first. It includes a number of functions, one of the most important two being the cost
command in-menu. It lets you show the cost of enchanting the item, which is extremely useful for planning.
There are a lot. This covers each type briefly.
This is effectively the “+1” and vice versa you see at the end of an identified item and is required prior to placing anything else onto an item. Negative numbers mean the item is cursed and dictate the strength of the curse, the further into negative it is, the heavier the curse. Basic enchantment levels go up to +6 and you gain them based on your character level, with +1 being gained at level 14 and one more every 7 levels after. Please note that on wearables, +1 adds +1 AC, and for weapons the enchantment level adds(? correct me if wrong) attack bonus and damage bonus. This means wearing a hat with +6 enchantment and nothing else added means you will still gain +6 armor class.
Allows you to boost a stat. Note that two different items that give +attribute will not stack. Max attribute bonus from player made items is +4.

Reduces damage taken from the type by your bonus value. Untyped is used for resisting damage from stuff like Erosion Touch and Ruin. Max resistance value on an item is based on type. Damage resistance is all physical damage types and maxes at 5, specific physical damage types (bludgeoning, piercing, slashing) go up to 5, max anything else appears to be 20-25. Magic resistance (spell resistance) max value from player items maxes at 3.

Allows you to add a spell to a piece of jewelry or weapon, enabling you to use
the weapon or jewelry to cast the spell at the caster level that was used for its enchantment. Limited charges, but very helpful as anyone can use the spells imbued in this way. Works with mundane PC-crafted items as well as any enchanted items, so you can have that Greater Band of Detection *and* a +6 custom made ring and both can have imbued spells. Jewelry includes things such as pins and necklaces.
Fairly simple system requiring healing skill, allowing you to do anything from making your own healing kits to making fabled potions of youth. Reagents can be found from all sorts of creatures and through foraging using the survival skill, as well as in alchemy shops across the lands.
