Long time musician, first time builder.

I've managed to get a hold on all the things I need to start making instruments except this ferrous metal or whatever. Can anyone tell me where to get it?

Thanks!

Ferrous Metal is a generic class of metals. (It means they contain lead)

Copper and aluminun are non-ferrous. You want Steal or Iron.

Ummm Ferris means it will attract a magnet

ie copper & alum wil not attract a magnet while steel & iron will

Ferrous metals contain compounds of Iron (periodic table Fe, which stands for Ferrous which is Latin for Iron) and do indeed have elements of magnetism. Steel is an alloy containing Iron and traces of Carbon...making steel much stronger than Iron. That's your Mr Wizard tip of the day!

Is there any reason to do expirimentation when making instruments? Or is there any way to add mods in to increase your skills?

Thanks

You can experiment them, but it does nothing (just like the survey tools). There are no skill mods available for instruments, you can only buy some BE enhanced clothes with + to wound healing.

I would love to craft a krayt hide drum with +100 macrotainerkicking, though... :-)

Cheers, Salome

Thanks to everyone for your responses. I'm now building away! My first Narg ! Yahoooo!
