No kidding. I did well until I got past bodkins and demons. Did ancient lumber for 3 levels and couldn't hardly ever find it. Broke even minus the breaks, but had to take it very slow and avoid it for awhile when people were price gouging the logs.
After that, cabinets were actually pretty good since I could get both oak lumber and logs from the guild merchants.
Next is kabura arrows, once I get done leveling bonecraft. Its going to take forever to find enough ram horns to synth even one stack of arrowheads.
After that, well, I'm pretty sure I'm screwed and am going to have to resort to the break synth method of skillups.
I've heard starting at 60 and going all the way to 100, that skillups average to about 1 out of 4 synths. The more I pay attention, the more this seems to hold true. I do often notice long stretches of no skillups, followed by near back to back skillups. Actually went from 80 to 81 in under 20 synths. Iirc the .2 and .3 skillups start slowing down in the 40's and 50's, and even though I've heard of people getting them later, I haven't seen anything like that in the last 20 levels.
