Could someone explaine how u craft layers and how they work exactly?. I just mastered AS and i cant seem to find the schematic for several items including layer even when im at a crafting station. Am i bugged or just missing something?

You might be a little bugged. Try standing inside the crafting station (seriously), or use a droid, which doesn't seem to suffer from this problem.
As for layers, you really don't even need to worry about them until you can cap your cores. They are by no means required, and their resists are pretty much wasted if you can't stack them on top of a capped core (5600 or more to special protection will cap the resists of the armor made with it).
How do they work? They raise one stat at the expense of another. You'll primarily use energy and primus layers. Energy layers boost energy while reducing kinetic protection. Primus layers raise kinetic and energy resists (though raising each only about half as much as a dedicated energy or kinetic layer would) while lowering special protection.
Here's a great post that shows you the possible caps for different armor builds. Bookmark it

Also try another crafting station. Didn't some post something that they couldn't see segments or cores because they were using pre-cu crafting stations?

Works now, went back to my house and used the one there and everything showed up fine. Oh and thanks for the link to that page, it is real helpful.
