A question for those who currently have the means to do it. Is it possible to rebuild headgear for a specific class? I recently crafted for Soldier and got the Kabuto, which I am not particularly pleased with. Is it possible to rebuild headgear with a soldier tolken, or should I resign to my fate?

:No, sadly not. The only surefire hat craft currently is the Fabricate Bonk Helm blueprint, so you'll have to do a random craft and leave it to chance if you want a Soldier Hat, or build up another 4 refined metals and a token (the safest, but also most tedious option).

While I'm aware that this may be considered a method for trying to get the Golden Wrench, is it really necessary to remove it? Likely, anyone who didn't already know about this recipe would not be continually doing this to try and get a Golden Wrench.

:You're going to use up a lot of weapons when crafting, only to end up with less than you had to begin with unless you're crafting metal. Then again, if you craft a weapon or a hat from said metal, you'll lose more. It's basically net loss in terms of materials. It takes 8 weapons to make a class-specific one, but it's only worth 1... -- [[User:Vi3trice|<font color=#771d6d>'''Vi3trice'''</font>]] {{adm}} <sub>([[User_talk:Vi3trice|talk]])</sub> 10:47, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

While I was browsing through the backpack materials in GCFScape, I've noticed something interesting. In "materials/backpack/crafting", there seems to be three unused tokens. However, unlike the other tokens, they are simply circles with the names on them, which I don't understand why. [[User:AbeX300|AbeX300]] 22:30, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

== Vita-Saw Blueprint ==
 
 
 
It seems that the Polycount Update weapons are a previous weapon of similar nature and a piece of Refined Metal. This raises the question, does the Ubersaw + Refined Metal produce a Vita-saw? Personally, I don't have any Refined metal to test the idea, but it sounds logical to me, so it might be worth a try. [[User:Jarimesce|Jarimesce]] 23:12, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
 
: Nope, you can see the list [http://www.tf2items.com/crafting/blueprints.php here] of all crafting blueprints. And it's one reclaimed metal, not refined. --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}} 23:17, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

There are recipes for KGB+refined=GRU and ubersaw+refined=vitasaw, but the section at the bottom also says:
 
"As of the Mann-Co update, all of the Polycount weapons are currently craftable, as listed above. However, the Heavy's Gloves of Running Urgently and the Medic's Vita-Saw are NOT craftable. "
 
Which is correct?

Actually got a pair of kgb to test with and confirmed the GRU recipe does work.

==Italian version added==
 
 
 
I just finished the translation of the Crafting page for the Italian section of the Wiki [[User:Cthulhu1992|Cthulhu1992]] 12:52, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== Untradeable Items ==
 
It seems to me that we should state that if you craft an untradeable item, even with a tradeable item, the resulting item received will be untradeable. This goes for metal, too.
 
Another question: does smelting an untradeable reclaimed metal made out of a mix of tradeable and untradeable scrap result in returning the same amount of tradeable/untradeable scrap, or are they all untradeable? [[User:TheMedik|TheMedik]] 21:34, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 
:Solved my own question. Upon crafting one untradeable scrap with two tradeable, and smelting the untradeable reclaimed, I received three untradeable scraps. Post in trivia? [[User:TheMedik|TheMedik]] 21:36, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
 
I just made edits to the final section referencing crafting of untradeable items.  The previous version claimed that untradeable metals could be used to craft a final product (hat or weapon), and that item would be tradeable.  Sadly, I just crafted a Milkman using post-Mann achievement weapons, and found out that this information was completely incorrect.  Much to my dismay, I received a non-tradeable hat... an unfortunate waste of the tradeable metal used in the process.

== Rocket Jumper ==
 
 
 
As of now, there currently is not a recipe for this weapon, correct? However, I'm slightly curious, as the Token Table doesn't show the Rocket Jumper as being recognized as a "Primary" weapon. Should this be added, or has anyone confirmed A) If a recipe exists or B) If a "craftable" Rocket Jumper can be received by using a Primary + Soldier + Scrap recipe? -[[User:StarYoshi|StarYoshi]] 03:44, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

:: Serves me right for not reading your whole post. I don't know if it counts as a primary, my guess would be yes. It can also drop randomly in game --[[User:Firestorm|<font color="#FF6600"><tt><big><u>'''Firestorm'''</u></big></tt></font>]] {{mod}} 03:51, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
 
 
 
== A minor suggestion ==
 
 
 
''† The Batter's Helmet's level and vintage status is not retained when crafted into a Bonk Helm. The level will be randomized.''
 
If an unusual Batter's Helmet is valid for this crafting recipe, and the Bonk Helm produced is not unusual, could we change this to say something along the lines of '...level and prefix are not retained...'? Just a thought.
 
:If we're going to do that, minus well use [[rarity]] as it's the official term.[[User:TheMedik|TheMedik]] 02:26, 22 October 2010 (UTC)
