i have level 2 woodcrafting skill :dead: and im trying desperately to raise it because i want to make beds and other furnishings becauase they sell for a LOT. now my question is simple, i need some ways to work up my woodcrafting skill. Making stone arrows (i think they are stone, the lvl 7 arrows) is making me take a long time to lvl my woodcrafting, so is there any other easier way to work my woodcrafting?

If it's easy, i think it wouldn't be worth a lot of money for their items then..Comment

Beds are not the way to make money in Woodworking (besides which they all have Goldsmithing and Clothcrafting as required additional skills).
Oh, and expect to throw a LOT of money into woodworking - its not the most expensive craft to level, but it isn't cheap either. Yes, at higher levels you can make money... but not until level 30-40, and even then your profit margins are barely what I'd call adequate.
If you're sweating the time it takes to get to level 7.... meh... maybe crafting isn't for you. Patience is the key to success in crafting - the more patient you are, the less money you'll lose while raising skill, and the more money you'll make when selling items.

Well said Icemage. And anyone expecting furniture to be money makers can forget it. They will sell at cost if lucky. Money is only made in selling HQ items, and last time I checked there were no +1 tables.

on kujata theres plenty of furniture items you can make for very good profit.. they just take a couple weeks to sell ><
heres a link to a very useful woodworking guide that might help you out. but really, the only way to make good money is to study whats synths are available to you at different levels, shopping around to find the best prices on ingredients, and watching the AH to see what sells consistently. in my experience consumables (like ammo) tend to sell much faster than things like furniture.

and like icemage said, crafting isnt for the impatient unless you have ridiculous amounts of gil you dont mind wasting.Comment
