There is no "mastergrind" macro.
There are some macros that you can use to automate certain portions of the crafting process.
You cannot completely automate the crafting process.

Websites of note with other forums and guides:

There is only one mastergrind macro...

It is for weaponsmiths. It requires a few things, but it will get you all the way to master. (ie. 450k steel, computer remains on)

This is the only mastergrind macro. It can be found in the weaponsmith forum here on SWG Forums.

From that thread:

How can I make this macro unattended?

* You can't do it with the SWG macroing system all by it's lonesome . The process si still simple. You can buy a programmable joystick or game pad such as the microshaft sidewinder. You can make it emulate a mouse click and it has a turbo option. So with properly positioned windows/cursor, an infinately looping macro, a sidewinder, a rubber band and a turbo button..... you get the idea. All you will need to do is pull up steel from that point on.

And that will work for any class that has items to craft that only require ONE resource.

You can do this with all classes:

Master Artisan via Wind Power Survey Tools.
Master Armorsmith via Mibari Armorweave Segments.
Master Architect via Armoire.
Master Droid Engineer via Droid Storage Compartment.


The detrements:
* expensive (1 million credits in resources)
* not fun (seriously I only recommend this if you think SWG has an endgame or you find living as a novice impossible)


The problem with macro grinding that DEVs should be addressing is: "Ok players know how to automate the grinding process... what do we have to do to make it desireable to NOT grind?"

just like vaedross said.. you can't automate it all.. but go to:

in the public forums there's a crafting macro that helps speed up the crafting process..
