I am posting this here because i would like the end result to be in-game items such as the ones the Crafters would be able to make. The topic has little to do with Loreroot (aside from the fact i'm forced to stay there for the moment).

What I'd like to do: create items that have magical properties at first glance, but it's only peculiar scientific effects. I'm sure I'm not the first one with this idea, I'm simply adding myself on the list. 

How I'd like to do it: get a small team of 2-3 people and discuss an idea until we get a fully detailed project, with theory and maybe even models. Then, with the aid of WPs, ask the item to be implemented in-game. It doesn't have to be usable, and it would be great if it used shop rp items.

I have no idea how this would work out, all I know is I'm keen on doing this experiment. If you want to work with me, drop by Raven Hold or drop me a message. Talks would ideally be held in game, but we'll see how it goes (if it does). I realize there are things to improve in MD, I do not want to steal people from the important projects, so I'm willing to work with anyone, I'm sure I can learn from others, even if I later on decide to stop interacting with them

Sounds good. These kind of projects are exactly what the crafters would sponsor.

Given their lack of appearance, once your project is "ready for consumption" you can pm me and we can discuss th actual implementation.

Cool.

For starters, I'd like to make a water hourglass, but not the kind with oil and water...just using capillary action. If anyone wants to help (or has suggestions), message me.

I want a 10 minutes one on my desk.
